Only F7 to switch back to graphics mode works fine. In particular, I don't see any boot messages at start-up. This has worked fine with a previous kernel like 2.6.27.21. Are there new boot parameters to add or is this a bug? It seems that `vga=0x31a' fails (which openSuSE's yast installer provides) since without it I can see boot messages. BTW, for `vga=0x31a' I get Console: colour dummy device 80x25 in the log file, while without this parameter I get Console: colour VGA+ 80x25 Werner
