Hello,
I tried to install Suse 10.2 on my PC with a Geforce card. I've read
lots of links and solutions in the internet related to this issue but
did not find a solution for my problem. I'm quite new to Linux,
probably to new...
I tried different alternatives to install Suse on my PC:
Alternative 1:
"Normal" installation. Everything seems to work well during the
installation. But when the installation has finished the screen turns
black and the system hangs.
Alternative 2:
"Normal" installation with adding an installation sources. Tried to add
an URL and entered as servername: download.nvidia.com and as folder
/opensuse/10.2. I always receive the Error message: "Unknown type of
source".
Alternative 3:
Installation with standard runlevel 3, start YaST2 and then add the new
installation source manually (as described under alternative 2).
Result: The system boots. But when I enter YaST2 the system comes up
with: "-bash command not found" although I can see that YaST2 is on my
harddisk.
Could anybody help a desparate switcher?
Thank you very much in advance.
Marcel
I had the same problem, and read of others experiencing it also.
The solution is simple:
Do your installation from scratch, but when it comes to the section about
hardware, just click the box where it says to "skip hardware installation."
When the installation is finished, you will find yourself in the desktop
of whichever you have chosen, KDE or GNOME.
Then, at your leisure, you can use YAST to try different settings for your
video, or if it looks allright, just leave it alone. :-)
