LiveCD 32-bits M3 seems to boot up normally for a while, I cannot find any unexpected error, but at the point where it is supposed to load X and KDE Desktop, it defaults to command prompt log-in. Logging in under root or linux user and typing 'startx' says that I have no screen.

64-Bits LiveCD M3 is working fine.

I do not know how to troubleshoot this problem.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Insert LiveCD 32-Bits Milestone 3
2. Boot from GRUB using the default options
3.
Actual Results:  
Defaults back to command prompt log-in and starting X returns a 'no screen' error.

Expected Results:  
Boot sequence should go through, find the screen and load to KDE Desktop automatically.

Nvidia ?!?
If yes: it's a dupe #517102
If not: http://en.opensuse.org/Bugs:X

Bye.

Related to the grafx card, not the screen, of course I didn't think about that.

So yes, nvidia (not the same card as 517102 but same manufacturer).

Let's make it a dupe.

tnx
