Re: [opensuse] Can not login as an user but root

just to be clear, as root, if you go to runlevel 3 using 'init 3' the system
still freezes if you log in as a user? can you get to a virtual terminal when
the current terminal freezes?

you said you created a new user. how? did you try using adduser (or is it
useradd? i forget which) in runlevel 3?

if you can su into a new user account at runlevel 3, can you use startx to get
a gui as that user?

was the kernel the ONLY thing you updated?

Yes, I can login in an ordinary terminal as I can only login as root. I

When I login as an ordinary user, system will freeze as I explain 1. below.

Do you know how to DEGRADE from kernel-default-2.6.18.8.-0.7 to
kernel-default-2.6.18.8.-0.5.?

Hi,

I use opensuse-10.2. After upgrading kernel-default-2.6.18.8-0.5 to
kernel-default-2.6.18.8-0.7 - 0.7 is latest, I can not login as an user
account in both KDE/Gnome. Only root account can login.

When login as user, white window comes. it looks like frozen.
I tried and figure it out below:
1. this trouble does not depend desktop environment: I tried KDE and
Gnome. Both have same trouble.
In KDE, initial window comes, but when clicking start menu, it
opens white window. I can move mouse but nothing is activated. In Gnome,
no initial window comes, but all the white display.
2. this trouble happens after kernel-default-2.6.18.8-0.7, I could
login as user until kernel-2.6.18.8-0.5.
3. this trouble does not depend monitor driver: I tried dell flat
panel monitor and panasonic monitor too.
4. I created new user account after upgrading but not fixed.

Above symptom I guess this trouble depends on kernel version or x11
version with this latest kernel.

Does someone know the same trouble or how to fix it?

Thanks and Regards,
Shigerusz3


Can you log in in a ordinary terminal? (not into X)
