Fedora Installation :: No Sound On FC10 Newer Kernel 2.6.27.15-170.2.24?
Feb 23, 2009
Just installed FC10 and noticed no sound with latest kernel (2.6.27.15-170.2.24), however I do have sound with kernel 2.6.27.5-117. No other differences. Anybody else have this problem?
I was trying to update the new nvidia drivers since they dont seem to work in the newer kernel, or to try to fix it but now when i run yum update I get a screen like this:
Downloading Packages: Running rpm_check_debug ERROR with rpm_check_debug vs depsolve: kernel-uname-r = 2.6.38.3-18.fc15.i686.PAE is needed by (installed) kmod-nvidia-2.6.38.3-18.fc15.i686.PAE-1:270.41.06-1.fc15.i686
I'm I seeing this wrong or is the initrd file in kernel-2.6.27.25-170.2.72.fc10.x86_64 a zero byte file and that's why I can't boot with it( get this "kernel panic not syncing VFS unable to mount root fs on known -block (0,0)" message)
I recently upgraded from FC7 to FC10 (Also, the Kernel from 2.6.22.9 to 2.6.27.19).I did the upgrade through Yum (First installed the fc10 rpms, then did yum upgrade).Now the new Kernel won't boot.These are the options in GRUB for the new Kernel
It seems that i am stuck using the 2.6.38-9 kernel, since no matter what i try, i can't update. I have had this problem since 2.6.38-10, but figured that the problem probably would solve itself after the next kernel update, sadly that was not the case.
I have had some worrying error-massages from dpkg about broken packages, which i believe might be the source of this problem, as it reported that the package "linux-image-generic" was broken. I removed the postinstall script from /var/lib/dpkg/info and updated both dpkg and aptitude.
I am not getting any more error messages, and if i look in the synaptic package manager, i can see that kernel 2.6.38-11 is indeed installed, yet i can't select it at bootup, even though i have tried to manually update grub.
I use a BLAG (F12) with a free-kernel 2.6.32.21-libre.168.fc12.x86. I'd like to install a newer kernel (.35). But don't know what is the better way to do this. Is it to download the .35 src.rpm and rebuild the RPM under F12 ? Or should I compile it since the source ?
I have been requested to install a Fedora Kernel from source. As such i have found the below src.rpm: [URL] how to install this much newer kernel onto my server from src.rpm?
I am getting a problem when login into FC10. It boots correctly an shows the login screen; then, when typing my user and passwd goes to the desktop and shows a KERNEL FAILURE. At this moment, most of the times the PC is blocked and doesnt works any more. One time has continued working without problems.
After the las failure, my system log has this info:
Code:
I have checked my hard disks (fsck) y every thing looks fine. However, i dont know how to fsck the VolGroup0. I cant'get it unmounted.
i did the right thing and posted this on the mac fedora list, but it seems too few people hang out there and there were no replies at all for quite some time, so i have no other option but to try the general support list.problem:on both fc10 & 11, sound works within a browser e.g. [playing flash such as videos cnn and fox videos etc.problem is, as soon as i play a cd or a dvd, then the sound is completely dead afterwards.somehow dvd's and cds completely disables sound.
I just tried to update to kernel 2.6.27.15-170.2.24.fc10 (x86_64) at the suggestion of the gnome update widget, and the process hung. A bunch of other things were updating at the same time, many of which were related to audacity or wine.
I'm not sure just what was being updated, because the option to review which updates are available does not work - when I click on it, nothing happens, but when I take the other choice (install all updates), I take pot luck. It would be nice to be able to choose which programs to update, and to be able to upgrade the kernel independently, but I don't seem to be able to do that at the moment.
I've been having a problem on my AMD based machine, 4cpu, gigabyte ga-ma78gm-s2h Mobo, 8GB mem, two 2 terabyte Sata HDs.One thing I've found is that any kernel after 2.6.32-17 has a randomness at boot time whether the system will completely boot or not.
For instance just today I downloaded and installed 2.6.32-24
It fails to boot (I've tried cold boot, warm boot).Running its repair also fails to completely boot.My experience is that if I keep trying it "may" eventually boot but I believe there was some change after 2.6.32-17-generic that's causing the problem.Because as with 2.6.32.23... which also fails to complete bootup many times... eventually my guess is that 2.6.32.24 will also boot "sometimes".But why does 2.6.32.17 always boot for me? Something changed and its not my setup.
I did the yum preupgrade install, all went well, did preupgrade -gui ; did everything fine, then i got the REBOOT now to start updating, clicked and i have just
I had some problems with the latest kernel (didn't play well with Warcraft)... So, I when I rebooted; I selected an older kernel in Grub Worked perfectly. How can I get rid of the newer kernel, and continue to use the old one?
I was forced to reinstall fc10 a couple of days back and from them the bootingup is really slow(takes more then 1 minute to show login screen). before the reinstall, it was quite fast. i dont know what went wrong.
I am trying to install systemc v2.1.0 on fc10 with gcc 4.3.2. I have gone through the previous posts for systemc installation with gcc 4.3.2 and have installed the patch , added the following headers in systemc-2.2.0/src/sysc/utils/sc_utils_ids.cpp
#include "string.h" #include "cstdlib"
but it did not work out.This is what I get The complete installation process is as follows
$tar xvzf systemc-2.1.v1.tgz $cd systemc-2.1.v1 $wget http://www.kix.in/misc/patch_systemc-2.1.v1-gcc4-osx // patch from post $patch -p0<patch_systemc-2.1.v1-gcc4-osx
installing IE on FC10 as I need it to access company email I installed wine first as #yum install wine* then I installed cabextract as #yum install cabextract after that I downloaded IEs4linux and run the script ad $./ies4linux I got the following message in the terminal "IEs4Linux 2 is developed to be used with recent Wine versions (0.9.x). It seems that you are using an old version. It's recommended that you update your wine to the latest version (Go to: [URL])" and in the install window script couldn't download flash and it seems to be hang every thing is stopped and I didn't get any message in terminal or in installation window.
I'd like to try a clean install instead of an upgrade from FC10 to FC11. What is a good way of getting the list of all packages that were installed through yum, and how do I feed that list to yum on a newly installed FC11?
I have just loaded the FC9 onto a HP/Compaq D510 2.8Ghz/Intel graphic card. Everything when as expected during the install but on login I get the following set of errors. The follow Panels encounters a problem.
I installed fedora on my second hdd, the other one had xp before fedora, now in grub it shows xp as other and wont boot into it, just hangs there. SDC is an external drive and sdb is the xp drive as you can tell by the filesystem.

I am new to Fedora 10 and encountered the following problem. I installed FC10 on an external eSATA hard drive (sdb) on my laptop which already has some other Linux distros on sda. I used a DVD that came with the Fedora 10 Bible, so I can assume that the DVD had no problems. The installation went OK and I got no error messages. I added the following lines to the menu.lst file of the distro that I use to boot all my distros.
When I boot Fedora, the blue bar at the bottom of the screen goes half-way, then gives me the error message: "mount: could not find filesystem '/dev/root' "
I would like to try out fc10 on an old, k6-2 pc. Last night I tried to download the dvd, but firefox 'completed' the download with only 1.2/~3xg, and of course it didn't work.
I am trying a test net installation in VirtualBox, so far so good.
However, I would rather have a more complete installation on hand and I'm looking at the full install cd's --there are 6 of them.
[url]
Are all 6 required for a minimal install, or could I get by with one (or two, etc)? For example, with debian installation cds you can use just the first one -- the rest are just a complete set of packages for everything +kitchen sink.
I upgraded to fedora 10 using yum but i have a problem, the installation went fine and after rebooting i got a login screen. I typed in my user name and password and after a second it returns to the login screen. Im sure the username and password are correct. If i type in another password i get an error message. So how can i log in?
This is what i did to upgrade to Fc10:
Code:
Then i got an upgrade wizzard and selected Fedora 10 and than reboot.
In the grub menu only one kernel is present which is the Fc10 so couldn't use the old one.
I've tried to edit the kernel with single for single user that works gives me a command line but im just not experienced enough to figure out how i can use the command line to login.
Anyone know where I can find installation driver disk for a RaidCore 5252? I do have the source code, would I be able to create a new driver for this controller? If so, how is that done?
I have a home network with 2 WINXP machines and one I am trying to load FC10 on. If I get FC10 to work, I will convert the others to FC10. I am trying to access the WINXP machines through my LAN. I have installed samba. I have gone through a lot of places to try to configure samba. Several places say I have to set the security level on the ethernet card using system-config-securitylevel. When I enter this in terminal, I get command not found. I checked with yum and it is installed. I have tried using the menus but cannot find it anywhere. I can see the FC workgroup from one of the WINXP machines but I cannot look into it. It says I don't have the right permissions. I would like to set it so I don't need a userid/password at all. Can I do this?
My laptop is dual-boot with Windows XP and FC10 co-existing. Yesterday, I wanna re-install FC10, so I formated(deleted) all linux partitions in Windows XP. Disaster happened when i rebooted computer: the computer cannot startup at all?Now, I don't know how to deal with it. I wanna know: what can i do to start up the computer into Windows? In my opinion, computer should work well without one system in dual-boot mode. If you format C: drive on which windows are installed, for instance, the computer can boot into FC10 normally. Why it die deleting FC10?
