recently I've updated my kernel, i had to reconfigure some stuff, in particular, the b43 module is not loading at init process, my question is: what command should I use to load it from the init? or what file should I hagve to edit?
I have tried to abstract as much of that away as possible. The options specify a pid file, to make a pid file. A subsequent line tries to establish whether the process is up, though I think several conditions are not checked for. This script seems pretty ropey to me. I am trying to start again with the lsb-base one in /etc/init.d/skeleton though that is going to require a lot of modification. get the code change to use the syslog API however that is out of the question at least for now.
1.) Create a named pipe 2.) Start up a logger daemon that reads from the named pipe 3.) start up the server process that writes to the named pipe
It would be ideal for this if start-stop-daemon offered options to specify where the IO of the daemon process should be redirected to. However I am not about to offer to adopt that package (with ~400 bugs) so I doubt that will happen. Trying to specify the redirection on the command line does not work. In the case of the logger daemon start-stop-daemon seems to hang on the system call. In the case of the server process the pipe gets closed when start-stop-daemon exits, so the logger daemon exits. None of that seems surprising.So what I am doing now is to write simple wrapper scripts for the server and logger processes. Both wrapper scripts have this structure:
1.) sanity check the arguments 2.) exec program [suitable redirection of IO]
Then the start-stop-daemon can call the wrapper scripts as daemons. From my experiments so far this seems to work. However I feel a bit uncomfortable with this. It introduces several new wrapper scripts.I cannot think of any obvious security holes but I suppose race conditions are inevitable.
Is there any difference in cpu usage for process in init.rc(runs automatic when boot is happened) and manually running process. Will these both have same priority by default...?
I fear I may have missed something simple, but I have a "miner" under /etc/init.d
Code: #!/bin/sh ### BEGIN INIT INFO # Provides: Miner # Required-Start: $all # Required-Stop: $all
[Code].....
I can also manually can start, stop, and restart on it. However, it does not launch on startup. I can find no messages in /var/log/syslog showing any attempt to start it. Did I miss a step?
FYI: uname -a Linux wrath 2.6.38-8-generic #42-Ubuntu SMP Mon Apr 11 03:31:50 UTC 2011 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux
I have a script in /etc/rc.d/init.d named foo. I want to start/stop/restart my process as follows:$ foo start But I do not see the [OK] message once it starts. There is no shell prompt returned either. It seems that my own process is the problem. The executable that foo calls is built from this sample code:
int main() { do { printf("Hello world "); sleep(1); } while (1); }
Do I have to return some kind of signal handle for this to work?
I have a project in which many processes run. p1,p2,p3.
->There are some .so files are included in some process when needed example ppp.so in process p1 (when ppp is needed and will go like a plugin) but it has a init () function how a process includes a init() function ?
->process p1 has main function i.e main()
->so evry process has main() right ?
what is the difference between init () and main () functoins. where is init () used and how many init() a process van have ?
I am working on a light version of linux for no particular reason other than to see how small I could make it. I was wondering if INIT was necessary, or if I could perform all of the INIT-related tasks (fsck, unmounting, etc) by hand/bash scripts?
I do not need multi-user functionality (Or much of anything for that matter). I started off with a Gentoo base 2.0.2 Install with kernel 2.6.38.
I have Ubuntu 10.10 installed. When I boot, this error message appeared "init: ureadahead main process 388 terminated with status 5" After that, another error message appear saying " *ERROR* render ring head not reset to zero"
Code: init: ureadahead main process (423) terminated with status 5 Ubuntu 10.10 lorentz tty1
lorentz login: The first line of the above shows up during boot before the display goes graphical. I can see it again (all of the above) when I Ctrl+Alt+F1 to access the first text console. Anyone know what is causing this, what problems can happen as a result, and what should be done about it? I moved from 9.10 on one machine to 10.10 on a new machine, so I don't know if it's a hardware problem or software. I am running 64-bit. I am not really seeing any problems happening besides the few scattered application and GUI glitches that are common with a new/migrated setup.
I keep getting this message as the first thing I see when I boot up. Afterwards, it displays the ubuntu logo and dots under it and then the screen blacks out, but the display lights act like its OK (wireless ETC). should I use a boot CD or something? The hard drive is fine and this happened after the computer blacked out during updates. i scanned the hard drive and its OK, according to the little scan thing you can do before booting up. I have a Compaq Presario V200. For specs, thats all I know.
Can't seem to get past this error Doing a google search resulted with no good answers that pertained to this issue. Not sure what's halting the system from starting up, but it just sits and hangs at this forever. Only able to view the error when booting into single user mode - normal boot hangs after "enabling /etc/fstab swaps: [OK]"
I have upgraded my ubuntu to the latest version a few days ago. Prior to the update I played a little with my partitions (transferred about 15GB from my windows partition to ubuntu partition).Up until yesterday everything worked. For some reason ubuntu will not load up now. After selecting ubuntu on grub i get the following msg: init: mountall main fsck process (574) terminated with status 3 mount of filesystem failed one or more of the mounts
I have UBUNTU 9.10 and WIN 7 installed on my computer. I turn computer on, choose UBUNTU, do what I need and shut down computer (or reset - doesn't matter). Turn on computer again and get message:
GRUB loading. no module name found Aborted. Press any key to exit. Operating System Not Found.
So I turn comp from Live CD, install GRUB and after resetting computer everything seems fine - but unfortunately not for long. Next reset and the problem is back again. The problem only occurs when I choose UBUNTU. There is no problem with WIN 7...
while loading the generated lib file to tcl module i got following as belowi know it is searching for "Tcl_DecrRefCount()" method please tell me the library name where above method is defined..!orif anything bad in my program
When loading puppy linux on my computer from a CD I get an error message on the third step which is (loading the lup525.sfs mainfile)to ram. kernel panic not synching attempt to kill init. The CD works on other computers with no problems. My computer is a dual boot XP and Win7 machine.

I am using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. Two days ago I updated using update manager. After that I can not boot Ubuntu. When I trying to boot system showing message " Ubuntu is running in low-graphics mode Your screen, graphics card and input device settings could not be detected correctly. You will need to configure these yourself" But I can not configure it.I can not boot to 'recovery mode' also
/var/log/boot.log
Code:

I have an Acer 9410Z laptop that I believe is running the Maverick Meerkat version of Ubuntu Studio. I just did an upgrade using Synaptic. I get to GRUB, but When I try to boot 2.6.35-22 (or the recovery mode or a real time kernel I had installed )I get the error:
INIT: Failed to spawn ureadahead main process. No such file or directory I then get the Ubuntu Studio splash screen for 2 seconds but then instead of a normal boot I end up in the terminal.
I upgraded from Ubuntu 10.0.4 to 11.0.4 on a Dell Optiplex. Now, when I boot, I am given the option to boot into different kernels. I select "ubuntu, with Linux 2.6.38-8-generic", which results in a black screen that reads
Code:
init: plymouth main process (58) killed by SEGV signal and that's where it hangs. Pressing ENTER or hitting Esc does nothing. What steps can I take to recover my machine and all the files I used to have on it?
fedora 12 with php 5.3.1 + apache is installed on the server
I needed a FFMPEG + MENCODER + FFMPEG-PHP setup , so I have installed all of the necessary libraries/codecs along with ffmpeg , mencoder and ffmpeg-php
I've added ffmpeg-php (ffmpeg.so) module to php.ini and restarted httpd
But ffmpeg was not showing up in phpinfo() so I grepped : php -i | grep ffmpeg for some clues and got this warning PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/lib/php/modules/ffmpeg.so' - /usr/lib/php/modules/ffmpeg.so: undefined symbol: php_gd_gdImageSetPixel in Unknown on line 0
That error explains why ffmpeg is not loading
Obviously something to do with GD library , so I've researched on the net , and found that some users suggest loading the GD module before FFMPEG module.
I gave it a try and added this at the end of php.ini: Code: [gd] ;loading gd extension=gd.so [ffmpeg] ;loading ffmpeg extension=ffmpeg.so ...but still same error when greping phpinfo()
