Description N Rugg 2008-06-26 21:50:14 UTC

I tried to install openSUSE 11.0 with the KDE live CD and DVD and it froze on installation both times.  I believe the issue is related to my video cards.  I have an AGP NVidia Geforce MX 4000 and PCI ATI Radeon 7000.  When I switched by bios to use the PCI card as the primary video card, it booted up, but the AGP card is unusable, though recognized.  I tried switching it back to AGP after installation, and the boot freezes.  I have not changed hardware since SuSE 10.1, and I have not had a problem on the other versions of Suse.  

Also, Sax dies at dies at /usr/share/sax/init.pl line 653.

Either 'sax2 -c 0 -r' or 'sax2 -c 1 -r' should work for you.
