Freaky behaviour after upgrading to KDE 4.2

[Veroland]

Hi all you intelligent people, I hope this is the correct place to post this

I am using openSUSE 11.0 and had my 3G card set up and working with no hassels.

This weekend I upgraded to KDE 4.2 and somewhere in the install instructions it said when the boot loader comes up I must choose the Xen boot option. So, when I reboot I saw I had a new boot option:


Xen -- openSUSE 11.0 - 2.6.25.20-0.1

If I now boot up with the Xen option and log in, I connect to 3G still fine with good speeds, but after about 30 seconds the connection drops and the knetwork manager can not connect to it again until I reboot then I get 30 seconds again.

I can still connect with my normal wireless card to a wireless network no problem.

What makes it really funny, if I select my old boot option


openSUSE 11.0 - 2.6.25.5-1.1

I have no problems connecting to 3G and the connection stays up.

Have anybody seen anything like this?

Wish I could help, but I dunno openSuse that well. I've found though that Kubuntu 8.10 Intrepid Ibex picks up my Huawei instantly. I haven't had any trouble with speeds or connecting to the ISP.

Why not try the openSuse forums? I've found the Kubuntu forums very fast and reliable... perhaps the Suse guys are just as speedy?
