Fedora :: Fedora 12 Hangs While Rebooting Or Shutting Down
May 24, 2010
Since i installed fedora 12 i cannot successfully shutdown or reboot my pc as was possible with fedora 11: i already tried with no luck with desktop button, the commands 'poweroff', the 'shutdown -h now' and the 'reboot' but the system go to the bliking cursor and hangs without powering off (and reboot while requested). And i have to hard poweroff the system... (GRRRR)If i go on the console I can only see the system terminating services and saying "halting system" and then hangs...
Now i have kenel 2.6.32.12-115.fc12.i686.PAE, but this problem happened with last 5 preceeding.I use the mjm installation guide since fedora 7 (or later) and i had the following HW (lspci).

My fedora 14 is upgraded from fedora 13, which was upgraded from fedora 12. Everything seems fine, but recently I met across a very strange thing.Fedora 14 shutdown properly, but it won't reboot. It will hang at the last step(I guess that is the last step: [*****.*****] Restarting system.The picture of the last steps before it hangs is attached. Please someone give me a hint how to diagnose it ?

I have installed Opensuse 11.3 32bit on my machine. Everything works except it will not reboot or shut down. I get as far as the lizard then it stops like It does not know how to. I run su user in terminal and give init 0 command and it will shut down. but init 6 just does the same as reboot above.

I have installed 4 accounts on my acer aspire 4520 laptop. OS is natty (2.6.38-9-generic), 64 bit distro. Only on one account I can not access the directories / files placed on my desktop. Clicking on Places, in order to open My Documents, for example, does not work.Typing nautilus on the command line, gives the following output:uwe@koch-laptop:~$ nautilus
(nautilus:18297): Unique-DBus-WARNING **: Error while sending message: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.(nautilus:18297): Unique-DBus-WARNING **: Error while sending message: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.uwe@koch-laptop:~$ Removing and reinstalling nautilus solves the problem for that specific session, but not for the following.
Rebooting or shutting-down always is accompanied with a file manager not responding message.

I'm using Gnome and I'd like to still have the ability to reboot/shutdown from one particular account as well as root. How would I modify the chmod command to add this ability?Also, I have a few users who just will hold the power button in to shutdown the machine. How can I keep them from doing this?// Pruned from the vintage 2007 Prevent a non-root user from shutting down, rebooting or suspend the system thread.

I have Debian (Kernel 2.6.26-2-686) installed on two computers. On one of them it reboots quite finely but I am having following problem with rebooting Debian on my second computer.When i type reboot at the linux prompt, following messages appear and system hangs up after saying "Restarting System":
The difference that I noted between my two computers is that I don't have ACPI support in the BIOS of the system which is giving me this error whereas the BIOS of my first computer do have ACPI support on which Debain do not give this Restart hanging problem.I have also disabled running the acpid script by running Code: update-rc.d -f acpid remove.

My laptop's built-in LCD turns itself off early in bootup regardless of the OS/distro or how long it's been running -- and sure enough, 14's live CD turns off its external LCD as well. Kinda hard to install when I can't see what I'm doing, you know? So, I don't suppose anybody knows how I could keep the live CD and/or initial install from turning the external off, so I can get the chance to change the appropriate setting? I've searched the forums, but haven't seen any way to circumvent it.

I am running named as a caching name server (package bind-9.7.3-1.fc14.x86_64 with config files exactly as supplied), and sometimes it does not shut down cleanly when I shut down the machine.The script /etc/ init.d/named tries to issue a "stop" command with rndc and that seems to fail most of the time; then it next uses the function killproc (defined in /etc/init.d/functions) which fails sometimes.I've hacked the named service script for now so that error messages are not hidden, but there is nothing reported.

I have two dual boot systems, each running Fedora 11 and a version of Windows.When I boot into Windows after running Fedora on either, the Windows time is wrong and I have to reset it. But, if I reboot from Windows into Windows, the Windows time is right . I think this results from different ways Fedora and Linux keepi track of time and what they do to the real time hardware clock.Could someone explain exactly what is going wrong and how I can resolve the problem?

I upgraded to Fedora 10 using preupgrade. It installed fine and everything loaded fine. Unfortunately the mouse would not work so I restarted my laptop. Now Fedora won't load at all the PC just turns on then keeps rebooting itself. I really want to avoid using the recovery disk. How to rectify?

About 2 weeks ago i installed ubuntu 10.10 and downloaded fresh network drivers. I ran autorun.sh, the module was compiled and installed, i could see it with lsmod. But after rebooting the old module appeared again, but no file for him were in modules directory because autorun.sh removed old module file. Some time passed and I figured out that it is initrd who is guilty. I couldn't check it because i already deleted ubuntu and installed Fedora 14 Beta. Today i tried to repeat my steps and installed new network module on Fedora. But when i rebooted and started again i was surprised - new module works instead my old one. Everything is fine So, my question, does Fedora use initrd? I saw some files in /boot that which are initrd files (as i think). Or may be not every fedora system uses initrd or something else?

My laptop (as many others) has a hardware switch which turns wireless/bluetooth disabled. If after booting up the system I switch on this key, the wireless would still remain disabled and I need to reboot the system to be able to connect to any network.
I have tried
Code:
rfkill unblock all
ifconfig wlan0 up
Is there any way to activate wireless without rebooting the system?

If i install new hardware using a vmguest or physical system How can I detect it.
disk
nic
memory
etc.
In AIX we just run cfgmgr -v. Is there a similar command in Red Hat?I am guessing a reboot will pick it up if the device drivers are common enough and in the kernel already. I want to know how to do this dynamically with the system on-line if possible.

I have kuduz installed but am wondering if there is a way to probe hardware with Fedora without having to reboot? Ioscan command is not found in my terminal and I can't find it in my Package Manager or a RPM search. A GUI version would also be of interest but not mandatory.I'm a Mandriva defector that is wheening off of Drake Tools.

I have a problem with my F13 and wired connections on my Acer TravelMate 2410. When I connect the inet cable it doesn't show it as connected. When I type ifconfig, it shows everything as it should. When I tried to bring up eth0 with ifup eth0, it said that the device is not managed by NetworkManager. I tried to restart nm with service network restart, but it gave this error:
Shutting down loopback interface: Error org.freedesktop.NetworkManagerSettings.InvalidConn ection: ifcfg file ;/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-lo' unknown
The same error came up for eth0 and Wired_connection_1 (the connection I configured from NM )
When I typed nmcli dev list it gave me:

I have downloaded the latest iso from the Fedora site (15 32-bit). I am using a netbook and so I have used the tool suggested on the site to copy the iso to my usb drive. Before this I formatted it to fat32 in Windows and then used the tool. When I rebooted with my USB drive, all that shows is a blinking _. I tried repeating the process again but the same happened.

We have a server running CentOS 5 Linux 2.6.18-128.1.16.el5xen #1 SMP Tue Jun 30 06:39:23 EDT 2009 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU Linux. We've seen at random times that the server will just reboot and nothing is logged in messages. I tried to enable kdump but was only able to get a 5.4 gig dump since our /var directory is set to 10GB. Here is the messages I see before and after the server restart. I had thought that when a kernel panics, it is supposed to halt the system and not reboot it. My /proc/sys/kernel/panic is set to 0. I can run an update but want to have some sort of idea what is causing the issue and if the update will fix anything.

"Sleep" is not supposed to permanently kill off the network service. restarting the NetworkManager / network services DOES NOT WORK. Why this blatent and crippling bug is allowed tp persist? I dont want to "rasberry reboot" like windows, this has been the only forced reboot

I just downloaded Fedora 10, burned the CD, installed the program, etc. Everything went just fine, but after rebooting the screen turns gibberish, totally unreadable. I now it's the video card, NVIDIA but how do I fix it? I installed Fedora 8 which worked just great, no issues. My machine is Intel Core 2 7300, Geforce 9600GT my other machine, is AMD-64 5000, Geforce 9500 GT, same problem happens when trying to install Centos 5.

I rebooted my Fedora 11 server via SSH and when it came back up it booted the gui, but no option to log in just a mouse pointer and a spinning blue circle...nothing I can do to get it back.
I should add that I installed the latest updates this morning and this was the first reboot since then.

First time on the forum, excuse me if i'm posting this in the wrong area. So with that being said, here's what goes on - right before it gets into the loader, it hangs right before it gets to it, where it says it's going to load it.

I created a new partition in Windows Vista which, after rebooting, screwed up Grub. I believe that I need to reinstall Grub and everything should be fine, and I remember reading the command to do this on this forum, but I can't find it. When I boot, I now get a black screen with white letters instead of the Grub boot menu. It says something about "Minimal Grub" at the top and gives me a prompt that looks like this.
grub>
I can boot the live CD and I have internet access with it, but I can not remember the terminal command to repair Grub. Can someone tell me this command?

i have been using F10 and before that F8, so after release of F11 i couldn't resist to install. system specifications are:Intel Pentium D 2.8 GHzRAM 512MbHDD 80Gbthe only problem is that it ceases and it's unexpected. sometimes i loose my work although it is not of much importance but it is that way.for initial few times i hoped it as a bug. but i think it is not.i love Fedora i looking forward to use it.only my mouse is moving all others locks up.one thing i used "unexpected" because it all happens regardless of any specific applicationor any time duration.all i need after it happens is to restart manually using restart button.i don't know whether my graphics driver is right or not?graphics seems right but during scroll it doesn't looks good.

I have been using F10 since its release and have not had any trouble until now. During my last session, I ran an update. Today when I boot my desktop (single boot btw), it hangs just after the boot loader. The only sort of warning is:
eth0: link up, 100Mbps, full-duplex, 1pa 0x45E1
I have browsed the forums to no avail. Other have the same issue, but with no posted solution. I have tried disabling NetworkManager, but I think it may be the service that runs after NetworkManager.

I have recently rebooted after applying weeks of updates and I cannot login through ssh. In the /var/log/secure log it shows the public key is accepted but the session never gets to a bash prompt and ctrl-c must be issued from the connecting xterm. I have tried to connect from several other redhat and ubuntu machines all with the same result.
