With 11.0 Beta 3 I have the exact same problem and don’t know where it is from.
Help please! ;)

Exactly, “some mirrors”. Likely Coolo wants to wait until more mirrors have got the release.

Funny, the beta2 download page now points to beta3 iso’s, and some mirrors had them already yesterday morning, yet the announcement is missing :) hey, folks @opensuse! what’s happened?

on my MSI laptop (also with Radeon and Atheros AR5007EG) the wifi failed with all betas.
On 10.3 I made it work with ndiswrapper.

I tried Beta1 on my Asus A7k-a1. It has a Radeon Card as well and an Atheros A7005EG card (AMD cpus though). There were problems recognizing the hard drive, but this is fixed in patch that should make it into Beta3. (Incidentally the patch was a command line option pci=nomsi; installation workd like a charm afterwards) Don’t know about audio/wifi yet (they did cause me grief in 10.3). I will be trying Beta3 as soon as its posted.

I can say the suse team has quick response to fix the bug I found, so I’d encourage you to try Beta3. If you find something, it gives the team a chance to fix it in time for full release!

Looks like tomorrow will be release of openSUSE 11 beta 3. I’m interested in it and I will install it on my desktop PC and try out KDE 4. But I have question to beta 2 users – is it already suitable to test in notebook? I have ASUS P5VL with Core 2 Duo T5250 (1,5GHz), 2GB RAM 667MHz, Mobility Radeon x2300 and Atheros AR5007EG card. Do you think there will be some problems?

Hi everyone!

For the first look, 11.0 is nice work, finally my 3G mobile adapter works fine.
But as always, I have a problem: I have a Thinkpad T61 (8898-55G), did a default install with GNOME, and no sound comes from my speakers. No MP3 sound, no system sound, nothing… any ideas?

Sorry, urgly color combination and to dark to me.
What are the files/file locations, so that I can change it?

Not to press ESC while it is booting. Very first screen when you see the boot options like “OpenSuse 11.0″, “Local disk”, “memory test”, press Escape there and OK for text based boot of grub, then you can see all console messages without the GUI.

Check tomorrow’s beta 3 version if that helps, if not, try the above.
