you do not have a GUI to use to login to
all you have is the text only boot and login .
the gui is crashing during boot .
so
there are two NON gui editors and nano is a default installed one
VI is the other
MC is a third - but not installed by default
the easiest to use is "nano"
login as root - no gui so it is fine
or login as a normal user and use the "su -" to become root
once you are ROOT type in
Code:
nano /var/log/xorg.0.log
and that will display the " xorg.0.log "
for a list of files in the log folder do tis
seeing as you say you used the gui yast to install the media player there WILL be a log of this in " zypper.log"
nano /var/log/zypper.log
that might help with figuring what happened
-- but--
i think you might have installed something incompatible with the older 11 sp1 and kde3
