Configuration issues on first install
KDE live install
- Although sound is enabled and tests alright with KDE system settings for other applications you are likely to have to go to YAST sound settings, select Other v -> Volume and move PCM master volume full on as it is set at zero by default.
- Although Windows is mounted automatically you will have to go to YAST partition manager to mount any legacy linux data partitions
Online registration fails
Version: 11.2 This issue happens only with openSUSE 11.2.
Symptom
The system can't be registered by the YaST Support Module
Cause
Because of the very short time before releasing openSUSE 11.2, open-slx was not able to provide all needed backend services for this yast modul.
Solution
Please register via Email, Website and Telefon. The registration form can you find at the open-slx website.
ASCII error
Symptom
The first bootprocess exits with an Error:
Error at the first boot up.
Cause
An error while the installation process occurs.
Solution
Press after the booting process the Enter key and type
Linux
After pressing Enter the boot/installation process continues.
If you follow these steps your system will boot without graphical boot screen, i.e. you'll see ascii text messages during boot. In order to get the graphical boot screen with progress bar you simply have to set the correct VGA mode in the GRUB entry by using the bootmanger setup module in YaST (for example 0x31).
