I installed the latest opensuse 11.2 64 bit on my laptop - Dell Vostro
1000. When I choose the regular kernel from the boot menu, it boots
with the green screen, then the lcd looses power, and system appears
hanged. So I poweroff and retry. This time I selected failsafe, and it
shows the kernel loading them goes to a gui. The gui says "Welcome at
linux-3dz0". There is a login prompt, but I can't type anything, it
appears the system is hanged. The mouse doesn't move either. At the
bottom left corner, there is a small window which show different lines.
The last line say NetworkManager: dbus_9_porxy_call: assertion
'DBUS_ISG_PROXY (proxy)' failed

I want to find out a way to just boot into the system without the xserver
gdm running, like a rescue disk, then disabling gdm, so i just get console
when i boot. i may need to reconfigure xserver. cause when it hangs in
failsafe mode, and i press the power button on the laptop, it does a safe
powerdown by unmounting the drive, etc.

Running KDE 4.4 RC1 / openSUSE 11.2

I was able to chroot into the system then changed the inittab runlevel to 3.
Now it is booting into console. When I did normal boot, it came to
login: and I typed my user and password, didn't work. I tried root and
password didn't work. When I booted to failsafe, I saw messages that root
user does not exist when booting. It looks like it didn't create a user
when I did the install :-(. Should I re-install it with no login this
time?

I have a Toshiba laptop that I had problems getting OpenSuse 11.0 to
install. It seemed it didn't like the graphics card that was installed.
When I changed to 11.1 it installed ok. You might try installing a
different version of OpenSuse and see if it makes any difference. Just
a idea to try it and see what happens. It you re-install 11.2 and the
same thing happens, I would try another version.
