Fedora :: Latest Udev Update Killed System?

Mar 24, 2010

I ran update on my ASUS N51Vf laptop yesterday and among the updates there was one for udev. After installing it udev refuses to start at all saying: "iTCO_wdt: unexpected close, not stopping watchdog". Then I get to login but not for long: after several seconds either system reboots instantly or it hangs shutting down display. Is there any way to rollback udev update somehow considering I can't even login into system?

Ubuntu :: Latest Kernel Update Killed Toshiba Sound

Jan 27, 2011

The latest Kernel update (2.6.35-25-generic) killed all my sound output on my Toshiba Satellite M115.

I tried reinstalling all ALSA components and plugins. No luck there.

Rebooting into 2.6.35-24-generic fixes the problem, in that my sound works again.

Fedora Hardware :: Latest Kernel Killed WIFI ( Atheros )?

Feb 4, 2010

Last night I installed F12 x86_64 from a liveUSB in my laptop with Atheros wireless. During the install process and after the first boot I was able to surf the web connected to the wireless network (signal was good and all). After I updated the whole system, however, the wireless network is no longer available (Network Manager does not even show the Wireless interface or the network list).

Obviously a laptop without wireless is mostly worthless. What am I supposed to do to get my (perfectly working*) wireless network back?

Fedora :: Yum Update Killed Computer / What To Do?

Jun 10, 2011

I have F15 64 on my laptop, it's been running relatively well, today I decided to do a yum update. There were about 20 updates, nothing major from what I saw, NetworkManger stuff etc. Everything goes well, until the end when I get some error (no I don't recall what it was, yes I should've written it down, and no I don't need a lecture about this) so I manually reboot the computer. And I boot to a black screen, Oh what joy of using Fedora. I edit grub to try and get in with runlevel 3, but encounter an error "Kernel Panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init" then a few lines down it's "panic occured, switching back to text console /sbin/init:error while loading shared libraries /lib64.libgcc_s.so.1: invalid ELF header"

I'm very frustrated, this comes right on the heels of pre upgrade forcing me to do a complete fresh install of F15. I'm honestly one error away from moving to another distro (Fedora is my first)

Fedora :: Latest Update Prevents F11 Boot

Aug 7, 2009

It seems today's kernel update has given a few people some difficulty - but my symptoms seem pretty unique.

* I go through GRUB normally. I 'esc' out of plymouth, and watch my services start. I get message 'mdadm: No arrays found in config file'. Don't remember seeing this before, don't have any RAID devices.

* Next, my file-system gets re-mounted in read-write mode (don't know if this is normal or not). Then, my services begin to start-up. My last service is 'crond'. All services start normally. When it gets to 'crond' the [OK] status is never reported. Visually, the screen flickers a few times, stops, then nothing happens. I can type characters though, and they do show up.

* If I then shutdown my computer by pressing the power button, the shutdown procedure begins. 'crond' shuts down successfully (indicating it started just fine), and the computer goes down normally.

* I don't believe this is an NVIDIA issue. I rescue-moded and changed my XORG.conf to the basic VESA driver to eliminate this possibility.

* Worst of all -- No older kernels work now either. They behave in the same way. When I try to boot to other run-levels, no luck either. This tempts me to think the problem might be file-system related and the re-generation of grub.conf threw something off?

Fedora Networking :: No Network After Latest F13 Update?

Jun 1, 2010

I updated this morning to the latest bugfixes for F13. For some reason, networking has become un-available after the required re-start. I am using a fixed IP. Tried to add eth0 DHCP, which initially worked, but became unavailable after a few minutes as well. I suspect there may be an issue with the card's MAC address which may or may not be detected correctly.. Has Networking been updated somehow in this bugfix release?

Fedora :: F14 And Latest Open Office Update?

Nov 20, 2010

Just last week I upgraded to F14. Just today I did the latest yum upgrade, and it included an update on Open Office. (1) I now have Open Office 3.3.0 OOO330m14 (Build:9542). According to the OO Web site, version 3.3.0 is still beta!!! 3.2.1 is still the stable release for download. What is Fedora doing? But that's just a general question; here are some specifics. Printing is virtually broken.

(2) Just opening the File -> Print window takes almost 5 seconds. The blue bar along the bottom of the window shoots across 8 times!! I'm hoping this is not the price paid for the new feature of having an unreadable copy of page 1 appear on the left side of the "Print" window!

(3) The "Properties" button is definitely broken. Click it and select the "Device" tab. I set "Printer Quality" to "Draft Grayscale." Then suppose I print 5 pages. Then I want to print the next 5 pages. The Print Quality is back to Normal! And that's without even closing the document, much less closing OO. Closing OO should save the printer settings for a document. But printing two times in a row without closing the document should definitely preserve the settings I make. It doesn't.

(4) Under System -> Administration -> Printing, I set the print quality for the printer to Draft. That also is completely ignored by OO.

(5) In OO Tool -> Options -> Load/Save I have checked "Load printer settings with the document." That should surely imply that when you save a document, the printer settings are saved with it. They either are not or they are not loaded or they are ignored.

(6) When I select the page numbers to print, that is so slow, the numbers don't even appear the instant I type them. That blue bar across the bottom of the window keeps shooting across until all the numbers finally appear.

(7) Under System -> Administration -> Printing there are two driver choices for HP Officejet 5600: hpijs and hpcups. Neither makes any difference for this behavior.

(8) I have several printers. Not even the printer I selected for doing the printing is preserved from one set of 5 pages to the next.

Who has ruined everything? Fedora or Open Office? On a more practical level, any ideas? Am I missing something? I've used OO with Fedora for years. None of this ever happened before. I NEVER had to select the printer and reset printer quality EVERY TIME I printed without closing a document. Plus, for any new document, the printer quality options in OO would be set to what I specified in System -> Administration -> Printing.

Fedora :: 14 Unbootable After Latest Kernel Update?

I have a Macbook Pro 5,5. I had Fedora 14 installed on it, updated to the latest version. I updated the kernel, and performed an update. Now, every time my system starts, it loads up the startup fedora bar, and it gets stuck at the bar being loaded 100%.I press ESC to see what is going on behind the scenes, and I notice that the problem is that atd cannot start up.

Fedora :: Compiz Broken After Latest Update

Sep 1, 2011

I've just installed 100+meg of updates and rebooted only to find that when I login the desktop fails to boot. Opening a root-console, I killed Compiz which dropped me back to the login screen where I logged-in again with the desktop starting successfully. From there I disabled Compiz and have no problem starting the desktop now. But that's not really a solution.Even stranger, if I now try logging in with and older kernel version and with Compiz off - if I try enabling Compix now, the desktop just freezes - it also fails to complete loading the desktop. So both the current-kernel/Compiz seem to be linked to the problem in some way!Has anyone else experienced this, and is there a solution? I miss my desktop-effects!

Fedora :: Latest Chromium Update Breaks Flash V10.0.42.34

Dec 24, 2009

I installed Chromium via a repo generously maintained by Tom "Spot" Callaway. Since it's his repo I thought I'd contact him, but I don't really know how - so I'm brining my issue to the forum to see if anyone has a possible solution.I've been using Tom's Chromium fine for the past couple months. After a "yum update", Flash no longer works in Chromium. It works in Firefox. If I try to play any Flash videos it's just a blank box.

Fedora :: Latest Update On F15 Screwed Up Network Manager

Jun 25, 2011

The latest update totally screwed up my system on KDE.The KDE network manager says "activating network", "networking system disabled", "connection failed".The icon shows 3/4 progress completed and is stuck there. Any attempt to change connection manually leads to plasma-desktop crash. I know this is only update related because I have messed with system earlier and thought that the network failure could be my fault, so I reinstalled the system and ran only update command, after the reboot the system was again in the fubar state. This is really frustrating. Just feels like really poor update testing. I have Fedora installed on three different systems however, I won't update them until the problem is fixed.

Red Hat / Fedora :: Boot Failure After Latest Kernel Update (12)?

Mar 14, 2010

Dual Boot: Fedora 12 and XP Dell 505I've had trouble with the latest kernel update.I updated a bunch of packages recently (including Xorg and kernel), and noticed a severe flickering after the update on my center monitor (Samsung T260 - the laptop display did not exhibit the flickering behavior). I backed out all the changes and started updating package by package. After I updated the kernel (again) I rebooted and here's where the fun part is -

I no longer get anything, except the cursor. No grub menu, no grub prompt. I rebooted and ran the rescue disk and followed the procedurery and point grub at the right boot partition - see here. However (obviously or I wouldn't be posting) that failed to work. I still get a blinking cursor and dead system on boot up.

Fedora :: Nvidia Driver Locks Computer Up On Startup After Latest Kernel Update?

OpenSUSE Network :: Kernel Update Killed Net?

Mar 24, 2010

I am experiencing the "slow internet" problem (mentioned multiple times in these forums) but it started exactly when I ran an online update, which switched my boot image from vmlinuz-2.6.31.12-0.1 to vmlinuz-2.6.31.12-0.2. Perhaps a setting somewhere got overridden? When the update occurred, grub couldn't find the OS because it had the wrong version #, and I manually edited it (via a livedisk) and that fixed it; it also switched my vga resolution in the grub conf. OpenSUSE is *acting* like ipv6 is enabled again, but ifconfig doesn't report that, and my MTU is close to 1500.

Fedora :: Nvidia's Latest Driver Freezes System

Jun 26, 2011

Lately (F14 and F15), Nvidia's drivers have been making my system freeze unexpectedly when running X. The only work around I have is reverting to an older driver (173.14.30). Although no freezes occur when using the older one, I need the latest one to run a few games sometimes. The odd thing is that when running these games within Wine while having the latest driver installed prevents the system from its usual freeze. I'd just like to solve this problem so I don't have to consistently revert back and forth from the two. I have a Nvidia Geforce 8800m gts and I am running F15 x86_64.

Debian Installation :: LUKS On Root Killed By Apt-get Update

Sep 24, 2015

Root LUKS to be broken by apt-get update? This did happen to me on 3 different laptops, both on previous install (from Debian 8.0), and also on clean installs (Debian 8.1), repeatedly.

When I reboot, grub starts, but then it cannot find the root file system (I end up with the emergency console).

Code: Select allLoading Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 ...
Loading initial ramdisk ...
Loading, please wait...
[many seconds waiting]
ALERT! /dev/mapper/sda2_crypt does not exists.
modprobe: modprobe ehci-orion not found in modules.dep

This is the most simple, clean, conservative install ever, no closed driver.

But LUKS on the root file system:

Code: Select allone ext4 partition on /boot
one ext4 partition on / (trough LUKS, all defaults)

There is no LVM.

All the 3 laptops killed at different time, when updating. Clean install is fine until the first update.

Booting on the rescue system allows me to see everything.

Code: Select all$ update-grub
Generating grub configuration file ...
Found background image: /usr/share/images/desktop-base/desktop-grub.png
Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-4-amd64
Found initrd image: /boot/initrd.img-3.16.0-4-amd64
No volume groups found

How can I recover from this?

Debian Configuration :: Squeeze Update Killed KDE4?

May 17, 2010

I updated today and naturally removed the old nVidia driver, compiled it again after a reboot, and then rebooted again for good measure. I can log into KDE4, but all I get is a cursor and a solid black background. I deleted the ~/.kde, ~/.local, and quite a few other directories from my normal user account using the shell so KDE would reconfigure my settings when I logged in again, but it's the same problem. I went into ~/.kde/share/config/kwinrc and added the "Compositing" section with "Enabled=false" to rule out compositing. Now when I log into the system I get the default KDE4 wallpaper and a mouse cursor, but nothing else. I believe the latest update broke KDE4, or am I missing something? I have recreated my xorg.conf as well, and only set it to use the nVidia driver. So what can I do now?
