Fedora :: Graphic And Networking After Kernel Upgrade?
Sep 16, 2010
after upgrading to kernel 2.6.34.6 I have two issues which I don't know how to solve. First and more important is an issue with boot process. The boot is ok until it is supposed to switch to gnome desktop. Then suddenly the graphics become a weird line pattern with no discernible features. Only a rectangle which moves upon moving the mouse. This can be resolved by switching to a console, logging in there and killing the gnome-session. (with kill -9) Then, instantly the desktop appears as usual, the background is loaded, the panels come up and all seems well.
I have no clue what causes this. I thought there's a display driver problem but since I can actually get back to the normal graphics state I'm confused. Also glxinfo says:
Code:
[Me@Plato ~]$ glxinfo | grep render
direct rendering: Yes
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI R600 (RV620 95C4) 20090101 TCL DRI2
Secondly the nm-applet doesn't work until restartet. Normally I expect to see an authorization request window, prompting for my passwd to start wireless networking, and the little icon in the panel. Both don't show up until I kill the nm-applet process and restart it. After I do this everything is back to normal and working as expected.
I assume if problem one is solved, two won't be a problem anymore because I expect the password dialog hidden somewhere in the background when the graphics is all garbled..
Edit: Failed to mention thath my graphics card is ATI3470 as shown in the signature...

Intel Core i7-5500U with Intel HD Graphics.So I updated to the backports kernel and backports intel xorg drivers and I have the weirdest thing.Everything is stuttery even cinnamon desktop effects are no longer smooth. If I boot back to 3.16, everything is butter (except the screen corruption). Even my favorite wine game dropped 25% in fps.
I remember that on windows, if the cpu is too slow (pstate_min_speed), graphics is also stuttery. However, increasing /sys/devices/system/cpu /intel_ pstate/min_perf_pct even to 100% didn't do the trick. I suspect, that this measure is causing it: URL....
how to increase the performance again? I just found out, after running glxgears (with about 40 fps), that xrandr shows an available framerate of 40fps
xrandr
Screen 0: minimum 8 x 8, current 1920 x 1080, maximum 32767 x 32767
eDP1 connected primary 1920x1080+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 293mm x 165mm
1920x1080 60.00*+ 59.93 40.00
I guess that's what makes it feel slow. Do you know how to get that back up to 60 (fixed)? It seems like the screen refresh rate set in xrandr has no effect on the problem. When I boot, glxgears runs with 60 fps and everything is fine. After a while, it drops to 40 and the whole desktop keeps stuttering. if I change the resolution with xrandr and then change it back, it goes to 60 again for a while

i tried to upgrade my geforce fx5700 driver. After upgrading i cant login. Before the login screen appears there is a black screen and when i type it writes first "^[[4~" and then i can write and nothing happens. I have two options in the bootloader : Fedora (2.6.31.12-174.2.3.fc12x86_64) and Fedora (2.6.31.5-127.fc12x86_64). I am afraid to kill the second konfig.

I upgraded from kernel-2.6.38.6-27.fc15.x86_64 to kernel-2.6.38.7-30.fc15.x86_64. After the upgrade I no longer have a wireless interface in Network Management. I have a broadcom BCM4312, booting the previous kernel solves this problem.

Today I fresh installed the latest stable version of debian (jessie) with gnome from the USB DVD image for a 64bit machine. Everything got fine except the graphic driver, I think.
Now Gnome 3 is running but graphic is super slow. My previous debian/gnome 3 ran much better and I think there is a problem with the graphic driver.
I'm on an thinkpad t61.
Processor: Intel Core2 Duo CPU T7500 @ 2.20GHz × 2
Ram: 4GB
Graphic: VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (primary) (rev 0c)
Now the graphic is: Gallium 0.4 on llvmpipe (LLVM 3.5, 128 bits) which is likely wrong. If I'm not mistaken llvmpipe is pure slow software acceleration.
Moreover this was different on my previous debian (wheezy), which was faster. Anyway I don't know what " Gallium 0.4 on llvmpipe (LLVM 3.5, 128 bits) " is and it was for sure different in wheezy.
According to apt-get I have the latest intel graphic divers installed. So maybe this an X-org confic problem?

I am writing this using the 2.6.31-17 generic kernel after rebooting and selecting NOT to use the 2.6.31-18 kernel which was just installed. The newer kernel would not recognize/activate my Atheros AR2418 wireless adapter and, when I connected to the ethernet and did updates, there were no hardware drivers available. I haven't needed proprietary drivers since I upgraded to 9.04 and 9.10 works fine with older kernel.

When I upgraded from Karmic to Lucid, I guess one of those upgrades was the tex engine, it was upgraded to texlive 2009.Though It can render everything I could render beforehand, I am having trouble about one thing. I cannot use the additional preferences that can be used to edit an image when using includegraphics function.
For example:
egin{figure} [H]
centering
includegraphics[width=0.7linewidth,angle=-90,trim = 5mm 8mm 10mm 0mm, clip]{example.ps}
end{figure}
Used to rotate my ps file, trim it, then scale it as specified. Now, I get an error:
./Rapor.tex:59:Illegal unit of measure (pt inserted) ...e=-90,trim = 5mm 8mm 10mm 0mm, clip]{example.ps}
If there is only [width=linewidth] tex doesn't recognize linewidth and prints:
./Rapor.tex:59:Missing number, treated as zero...includegraphics[width=linewidth]{example.ps}
and the output file has the text within the square brackets, rather than the image.
Somehow there is a problem or a change in how this usage is interpreted. I am using:
usepackage{float}
usepackage{graphicx}
packages that are related to graphics. I'm using Kile 2.0.85, but the problem is editor independent, I get the same results with Texmaker. I am using the exact same .tex sources that I used with Karmic.
What I've tried:
I installed texlive packages from scratch, with Kile.I changed the graphicx.sty file with a version that I found on the net.

I have just built a PC based around an i7-860 and Asus P7P55D mobo. It was running fine until the big update that happened today and now the internet is like treacle. I did the same update to my other (different hardware) PC and all is fine with it.
When I load the earlier 2.6.32-21 kernel instead of 2.6.32-24, the new system works as it should and the Internet is very fast. This suggests to me that the kernel update is the problem, most likely the NIC driver. This motherboard has a Realtek 8112L NIC fitted.
Has anyone else had this issue and what is the best way around it other than loading the older kernel and hoping that the next update will fix it?

I hate kernel upgrades, at least on my laptop. Every time I upgrade, I have to recompile the driver for my Linksys WUSB600N adapter or it doesn't work. Usually, this is no problem, as I have the driver saved in a .tar file and all I have to do is 'make' and 'make install' and it works. BUT... This time, I tried that, and I get this:
Code:
doug@dh-laptop:~/LOCAL/Software/RT3572_Linux_STA_v2.4.0.2$ make
make -C tools
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/doug/LOCAL/Software/RT3572_Linux_STA_v2.4.0.2/tools'
gcc -g bin2h.c -o bin2h
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/doug/LOCAL/Software/RT3572_Linux_STA_v2.4.0.2/tools'

I just updated my kernel to 2.6.34.7-56.fc13.x86_64 last night and now I have no system sounds. Audacious plays my mp3's just fine, just as all my multimedia works in my web browser, vlc, etc... The only thing being affected is system sounds. I tried playing a sample with aplay and I got loud, crackling nonsense and this output code...

My Fedora 11 Acer Aspire One system updated today from Kernel 2.6.30.9-90.fc11.i586 to kernel 2.6.30.9-96.fc11.i586
On reboot, the lower panel on my Gnome desktop is missing the 4 rectangles for selecting desktops 1-4. Also, when you open Firefox, terminal etc, there is no tab on the lower panel either.
Is there a way to get them back?

After seeing that Starcraft 2 had a Gold rating with Wine I decided to try it out on my 64bit F13 system. Unfortunately I seem to get the ACESS_VIOLATION error due to kernel issues (see http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManage...estingId=55485. This issue has apparently been fixed in 2.6.35 so I'd like to upgrade my kernel.Is it a good idea to install the kernel and nvidia drivers from the F14 repositories on a F13 system? Are there any pitfalls that I should be aware of?

I recently upgraded the kernel in 9.10 to fix a problem of no sound on my laptop but this killed wireless However I could still boot into the previous kernel to use wireless (albeit without sound). I found a fix for this problem on the forums: [URL]... but It didn't work so well in my case. Specifically after executing the command

I have a HP ProLiant DL580 G2 running a freah install of Fedora 9. After doing all updates and re-booting the sys monitor only shows 3.7gb of memory with actual 8gb installed.
Not sure what is going on. Current kernel version is: 2.6.27.9-73 fc9 .i686
I was under the impression that F9 was a PAE kernel. But doesn't look like it to me?
Do I need to upgrade to Fedora 10? Or install a PAE kernel?
If a new kernel, what do I do? I'm new to Fedora 9 and big iron servers.

I just updated my kernel on Fedora 13. The bug update thing popped up, I clicked install, it asked me to restart, I did this, now the loading bar on boot gets to the end then stops and goes no further. A google search showed people using older versions of Fedora have had some issues similar because of their nVidia graphics card, which I also have, however I can't find a solution. There is no terminal to play with, no error message, so I have very little to go on. I have a java project for uni on there I need to rescue so any help would be very welcome.
Extra update, while starting up I pressed esacpe and was giving the option of an interactive start up which pretty much confirmed it was a problem with the nVidia card, told me that the driver wasn't installed with warning writern (is this a word?) next to it orange writing which didn't seem to positive. It seems that spamming escape earlier in the boot lets me play with grub. Using the old kernel to boot doesn't seem to help. So ready for those solutions now.....

I am relatively new to the Linux System (8 months). I am having issues after upgrading the Scientific Linux 6 kernel from its current 2.6.x version to the latest version that SL6 has available. The issue is that once I install the upgrade and reboot, the internet becomes extremely laggy when scrolling on web pages, so much so that you get a ripple like effect as your scrolling. Which doesn't occur in the current kernel i am using.
Current Kernel is: 2.6.32-71.18.2.el6
New Kernel RPM update is: 2.6.32-71.29.1.el6
I wish I could figure out the problem but I am having trouble identifying what exactly the current kernel has that the new one doesn't that would cause the internet lag. I have read other topics with similar kernel update problems, but none have expressed an internet problem & only an internet problem from a kernel update.

Yum 'pre-upgrade' added new kernel to menu.lst, but I don't boot from that GRUB; I boot from GRUB on another partition. The new kernel is ready to install, but the GRUB that I boot with ain't linking' to the pre-loaded kernel.
Code:

I cant boot into Fedora 10 using the latest kernel. It just hangs after grub, I can still boot into an older kernel. The problem is its a fresh install that I ran a full update on straight away, and now I cant install videoaudio drivers because the kernel-header packages (and others) are installed for the latest kernel. Is there any boot parameters I can try to add when booting that might help?
