I have been using F12 for while now, I had applied update when it available. After the latest update, my laptop have lot of Kernel Crash error and it hang up more often. I try to upgrade to the F13 or F14 but not successful at all. My only hope now is to rebuild the Kernel to the early Kernel. How to rebuild the Kernel to 2.6.31.5.
My current Kernel is 2.6.32.26-175.fc12.i686.PAE
Gnome 2.28.2

on the screen. It is because kernel sourse codes are not full. I can not search full sourse codes of 2.6.18.-128.e15 kernel.not in src.rpm , not in tar.bz2 etc.
I'm working on the development of a custom kernel (actually just a "small" change in the networking part), from the standard 2.6.23.17 source code (downloaded from kernel.org), on CentoOS 5.3. I'm using the following procedure to build and install the kernel:
1)cd <ROOT_DIRECTORY_OF_KERNEL_SOURCE>
2)Modifiy the 4th line of the Make file as follows:EXTRAVERSION = .17CUSTOM
3)make clean && make mrproper
4)make menuconfig
5) make rpm

View 1 Replies View RelatedI rebuilt my kernel with dynamic ticks, high resolution timer support, and hugepagetlb and hugepagetlbfs support. Now X does not load. If I start it as root, xclock shows up and then the screen goes black and I can't do anything. Normally xclock and three xterms show up. If I start it under my normal account, I get a black screen with nothing but a cursor, which moves and has the "busy" pointer. It is not configuration because I booted an old kernel and am using X under that right now.I also set CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME to no. My monitor uses DPMS so maybe that may have done it.

The stock install works fine barring a few bits of hardware but after recompiling the kernel X loads and immediately freezes, whence I need to soft power down (I cannot switch back to a console). On capturing stderr from the command line, when executing startx I get various warnings including:(polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1:2368): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_once_init_leave: assertion `initialization_value != 0' failedCan't really tell if the above is relevant... Sorry I can't dump the lot because the machine isn't on the net yet.
There is nothing errorwise in the Xorg log after a reboot. The very last line relates to a video mode with modeline info etc. I have compiled either into the kernel, or as modules everything I think I need though unfortunately I seem to have to load them all manually, so I hav no idea of I've missed something important. This includes all the Intel drivers i915, drm, intel_agp etc.Googling suggests bugs with polkit and I don't know why gnome has anything to do with my system in any case.Other thing that I find annoying is that xorg.conf no longer exists and I am relying on the HAL daemon, about which I know nothing. It took me ages to find how to change the X keyboard map - very frustrating. How do I confirm which video driver etc.?
I have an Nvidia graphics card,... actually I manage several workstations that run centos and have an nvidia video card. I also have a personal computer with ubuntu and an nvidia network card.
I would like to do a regular automatic update of those Centos workstations. (With a pilot group to test and then a full roll-out). Until oktober 2009 no major difference in automatic updating ubuntu and centos (apart from the differences between apt and yum):
After a kernel upgrade, the systems can not boot into it's Xorg gui, because the nvidia driver must be rebuild (=not recompiled, because this is partially object code, the driver is not opensource).
But from ubuntu 9.10 onwards, the kernel update process checks for the presence of propietary drivers like those of nvidia and does a rebuild on the reboot, so that the system can succesfully boot into the xorg GUI (and gdm or kdm) My question is: Are ther any plans for Centos to do the same, this would relief me from some upgrade hassle for the Centos workstations that I manage. Or does anyone know about a (good) automagic workaround?
I just implemented dracut on my Slack. It works well, but for this also I had to rebuild the kernel. Everything works as it should beside KDM. When KDM start mouse/keyboard don't work. I check the logs and I don't actually see any errors.Note: Im using Slack in VirtualBox with fbdev or vesa driver and it doesn't work with neither of the drivers. I suppose its something missing in the kernel, but don't know what.Before rebuilding the kernel and implementing dracut, everything work with fbdev and/or vesa

I've cloned a machine by removing a HDD from a Raid mirror set putting it into another machine and powering on and fsck'ing a few times and everything is great apart from the ethernet port numbering has gone a bit wonky.
The cloned machine which must have a specific configuration using eth0,1,2,3 naming convention however when I boot the freshly cloned machine eth4,5,6,7 show up and eth0,1,2,3, are missing (as it detects the new machines ethernet ports)
Is there some configuration file I can delete, reboot the machine and then Fedora rebuilds the file using eth0,1,2,3, and populating with the correct hardware address.I need to clone this machine lots and lots and lots of times and the manual why I've figured out is a little long winded.
I have an old Athlon XP 3000 machine that I keep around as a file server.It's currently got three 1TB drives which I had setup as mdadm raid 5 on FC10. The machine's original drive held the superblock for the raid array and it just had a massive heart attack. I've searched, my biggest source being URL...I can't tell if I can reassemble the superblock info lost with the original hard drive or if I've lost it all...
View 9 Replies View RelatedWhat are the bare minimum configuration files that would be needed to rebuild a RHEL server?We are thinking about creating a generic base image and then just copying over the necessary files (fstab, hosts, networking, etc) to get a failed system back up and running in the least amount of time possible. I am fairly new to Linux and have suggested that we have a share on a redundant server that is /server_configs/Svr_name/*.* (names are subject to change and *.* would be all of the pertinent config files to make a fresh build customized enough to emulate the failed server).Is this even possible and/or plausible?

I've lost the disk that contained the /boot directory of a 9.10 installation.All other important partitions/directories are on a raid0 and working ok.So, I started trying to repair the system by booting from Ubuntu 9.10 live cd, creating a new partition on a new disk for /boot, mounting all partitions in its place for a chroot environment, doing the chroot, and then trying several reinstalls of packages which I supposed where enough for rebuilding /boot (linux kernel & grub), then I ran something like grub-setup which installed a new MBR on the new disk.Everything went ok, but when I reboot the new installation it gets me to a text mode login screen and of course I want to recover the previous configuration which ran gdm and auto login into GNOME I had before.After that I tried reinstalling some other packages like gdm but now the boot process "hangs" on the boot splash screen.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to use Banshee to sync my 5th generation iPod nano on a Lenovo laptop. When I plug the iPod in, it is recognized just fine by Banshee, however when I click on the iPod icon it tells me that it is unable to read the iPod because it has been used with a version of iTunes that saves a version of the database that Banshee can't recognize.
All of this is fine. I click on rebuild iPod database since I have no intention of using iTunes in the future with this iPod, and I don't mind losing the playlists or songs on the iPod (I have them all on the computer). The database rebuilds normally from all appearances, and after a short time I am able to read all songs on the iPod and transfer things back and forth.
The frustration comes into play with the fact that next time I load up the iPod on Banshee, it asks for the exact same process. It is unable to read the iPod, needs to rewrite the database, etc..
Is there some way to permanently alter the database that I'm missing, or is this an issue with 5th generation compatibility?

I'm currently trying to rebuild the Seamonkey package so as to have only the browser, and not all the remaining cruft like Mail, News, Composer and Dishwasher. I remember having done this for a few years - Netscape also allowed to do that - and it went well. Basically, all you had to do was to replace the --enable-application=suite option by something like --enable-application=browser, and then disable the other apps explicitly with some option like --disable-calendar, --disable-mailnews, --disable-composer, if I remember correctly.
I've tried to rebuild the Seamonkey source with a modified SlackBuild, but to no avail. ./configure --help shows me some options in that direction, but I have yet to find out some magic combination to get it to work. --enable-application=APP doesn't seem to know the browser-only option anymore, and defining various --disable-mailnews and --disable-calendar options results in compilation errors.
