It sounds like you have the appropriate info from the rest of the crew,
especially if you are able to get support from HP, but it sound like the
sort of thing that happens when you update the kernel and are using the
ATI Proprietary Driver. The ATI driver needs to be uninstalled and
reinstalled each time you update the kernel. You can confirm you are
using it by looking at your xorg.conf
-If this is the case- you can still recoup your system… go to ATI’s
site and download the Linux driver appropriate for your system, then
install it. You may run into problems as it wants -you- to manually
uninstall the old driver first - yuck! - so get in the habit of KEEPING
the installation file so you can do that easily next time. Uninstall
using corresponding file, then re-install using the new one, and so on.
You can also force the install - and that will work, but not as clean.
Of course, if you are already getting appropriate support from HP, or
are not using the ATI driver, then please let them help you and ignore
my advice.
Please can you you post the output of these commands[color=green]

When posting the output put CODE tags around it (look for # button
when writing post)[/color]
I performed these commands. The answer on first is (I should warn that
I translated some words - “Yes”, “No” and headers were russian in
original output):

So I suppose the answer is Yes.
I don’t exactly understand… I should reinstall ATI driver after each
update or software installing?
And won’t system crash if I’ll manually de-install driver in order to
install new?

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation Mobile 4

The error is:[color=blue]
Fatal server error: No screens found[/color]
And since I’m on a very slow Broadband internet connection till the end
of the week (and not very stable at the same time) I’m unable to do
download and build a driver myself to make the system work.
SLED doesn’t look like an Enterprise distribution. Too many problems,
too many bugs. It’s the second problem with Xserver for the last several
months. After OpenOffice had been changed by LibreOffice in early spring
Base became unusable and still no fix by now. I had to install
OpenOffice to be able to do my work. I’m using SLED and waiting for the
time when I’m finally off my work for several days and simply wipe my
hard drive and install another distribution.
