Can you have a look at the X logs? Probably in:

/var/log/XFree86.0.log

Have you made backups of your X86/Xorg configuration file?

ls /etc/X11/    ("X11" directory name might vary)

Any YaST backup of the files, e.g.

XF86Config.bck   

XF86Config.saxsave

?

If so, save the existing (potentially rotten) XF86Config for backup purposes
and overwrite it with one of the above files. Any luck? Do the logs give any
useful indication? Can you:

startx

?

kde

?

Hope it helps,

Roy
