Fedora :: Scrolling Text During Boot Process Instead Of 'loading Bar'?
Jun 4, 2009
This doesnt really bother me at all, Im more curious than anything but- When I first installed fedora 9, during startup there was a bootsplash during the boot process. When the kernal was updated, the bootsplash was replaced with scrolling text (I have done several kernal updates, it was after the first one the scrolling text happened). Is there a way of reverting back to the bootsplash or is it more trouble than what its worth?

Toshiba Tecra. I'd like to upgrade from 9.01 to 11.04 but soon as I select 'Install Ubuntu' on the DVD I just get a screen of scrolling text files rolling by continuously. (I tried installing Kubuntu and Xubuntu and get the same thing)

I need some help in determining how to have a color splash image display in place of the Linux scrolling-text during the boot-up process on an embedded Linux device. The kernel used is a stripped-down version of Linux (kernel 2.6.29), which has been custom configured. I am using syslinux as the bootloader. I was told that Plymouth might be the way to go with this, but I'm not sure.

I have installed "open-SUSE 11.4" on a "500GB Free Agent External Hard Drive". I didn't have any problem in booting since last week that I booted it from my laptop. Also I did it before several times from then when I try to boot it e.g. from an "Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q9400 @ 2.66GHz" PC the time between loading INITRD and starting boot sequence messages lasts nearly 30 minutes!(i didn't actually measure it but it take a long time in the same order). after starting boot sequence which is showed on monitor everything looks normal. e.g copy of files would be done by speeds between 2MB/s to 30 MB/s depending on the targets.I used to use the external hard derive to boot from different laptops and PC's from start but I didn't have such a problem anytime.

Still on lucid, I am trying to configure a decent console based boot process. I had to figure out some startup script errors and was upset what I had to fix just to see all messages properly. For me, having a 'talking' OS in favour of a Colourful-but-Black-Box-Liar without even one single record of a good logging policy is just one, but big plus of running Linux - please stop to windooze Linux
What I want:
- add 'text' to the kernel parameters (fixed or grub editor)
- have all messages issued during the boot process on the console

I'm using Chromium 10 from the build service and just installed the upgrade to version 10. Now there seems to be an issue with scrolling. When i go to reply to an email in gmail there is something weird when i try to scroll. The scrollbar will move like i am scrolling but nothing actually in the text area moves

It takes about 25 seconds for my Grub to load, about 10-15 seconds of a black screen with flashing cursor before the first (Grub version 1.5 etc) message, then another ten seconds or so with the message "grub loading please wait" (from memory) before the menu appears. Is that normal for a system with three HDs and three different OS (SUSE 11.2 and 11,1, Ubuntu 10.04)? Maybe it is, but it would be nice to shave off a few seconds as Grub now takes longer than booting the OS... Also, when I set the resolution in YaST2 of the Bootloader to my maximum of 1920x1200 (24bit), I get scrolling text over the bootsplash which I didn't get when the resolution was set to the previous value of 1600x1200 (8bit).

Whenever I have an open OS-generated window (Software Center, Settings etc), the text will be corrupted if the window is scrolled. This can be restored by highlighting the text - and sometimes it will self-restore given time, but the corruption will reappear if the text is scrolled again.
The behaviour does not happen in program-generated windows, such as Firefox.

I am playing around with PyGTK and come across a problem: When I put a TextView inside a ScrolledWindow, and type text into the TextView until it reaches the edge, the cursor goes outside the viewport and I can't see what I'm typing. How to make it so that the ScrolledWindow automatically scrolls so that the caret in the TextView is always in visible?

Enabling visual effects to either of normal/extra result in a serious problem-scrolling down any page results in overlapping of text, which is corrected only when i minimize and maximize the window.

im trying to output a list of running processes via a shell script. At the moment i got this which outputs the processes to a text file called out.
echo $(ps aux) >>out
The problem is though, the processes are all just one big block of text which makes it hard to read. Does anyone know how to sort the output to a text file so that it prints to the text file at 1 process per line? I know its probably simple but im very new to linux.

I've just recently put Ubuntu on my 2010 Macbook Pro 13 inch, and all seems to be running more or less alright.One thing i miss from OS X is the ability to reverse the scrolling direction, also inertial scrolling.Is there any way to implement this in Ubuntu?Also, i have already installed the Mactel trackpad drivers.

I installed Fed 11 after Win 7 was already installed---on my Lenovo T-60 laptop. So I rebooted after a couple of software updates with no option to boot to Win 7. my laptop boots straight to Fed 11. So I was checking grub.conf and it is "x'ed" out. so is menu.lst. I click on them and the message says "grub.conf" is not available. Whats up with that? or is there another place to get to the MBR to give me an option between the 2?

I just started testing a redhat enterprise linux 5 installation. This installation took place in a Latitude D630 labtop which currently has Ubuntu Desktop in (sda1) and Ubuntu Server in (sda3). My goal was to install Redhat Enterprise Linux 5 into (sda4). Both of the Ubuntu installation boot fine and work, but when I try booting the RHEL it shows a panic in the loading phase as follow VFS: Cannot open root device "sda4" or unknown-block(0,0)Please append a correct "root=" boot optionKernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)I am wondering what this means, maybe some of you would have a better clue than I do

I am noticing that my GUI is lagging when I log in. But after a while its back to being lightning fast as it should. I am sure its something to do with its loading process.

I have encountered a problem when installing fedora 12.
1- It told me that there is no sufficient RAM so it logged in text mode. But I have 256 mb RAM and the lowest is 192mb for the graphical mode.
2- The RAM specified in the manual of fedora the DDR or the VGA.
3- After the installation it ask me to log in as shown localhost login:
What should I type in this? Whatever I wrote it ask me to write password. But if I try to write any thing in it, it didn't respond or write any thing.
4- How could I login the graphical mode after installation in text mode.
5- I have encountered another problem when boot the set it load fedora by default and didn't ask me to choose between fedora and previously installed windows xp.

Yesterday, i just got my Fedora live DVD. When i tried to boot it from my CD/DVD ROM drive, it seems to hang when it's just about to finish loading. From one of the prevous threads, one of the members said that i had to have 2 partitions on my HD. Currently, i already have 2 partitions. Can someone give me advice on what to do??

I have an Intel DG33TL MB, Intel Core 2 Quad Q9650, 8GB SuperTalent DDR2-800, and 4 Seagate 500GB hard disks. The disks are connected to a 3Ware 9650SE-4LPML and set for RAID0. I partitioned the drive in the following manner: 900GB for XP-Pro x64 (first install), 100 GB XP-Pro (installed second), and the remaining for FC10. After installing FC10 x64 using downloaded DVD .iso I am getting the following error on reboot:
Code:
Reading all physical volumes. This may take a while...
Volume group "VolGroup00" not found.

I got a new laptop, this is the one: [URL] and decided that I wanted to go with Fedora instead of Ubuntu with this computer. The laptop runs win 7 64 bit so I'm trying to go with Fedora 64 but it will not boot. I first installed Fedora 12 64 bit from the DVD install and it would go to grub fine but when I boot the fedora os It just stops in the middle of the boot script. When it stops, the last 4 lines are:
kernel_init=0x1fd/0x257
child_rip+0xa/0x20
? kernel_init+0x0/0x257
? child_rip+0x0/x20
I hadn't messed with it for a few weeks and yesterday I saw that 13 was out, so I downloaded and burnt the Fedora 13 64 bit CD. I popped it in, booted the computer and it did the same crap. It didn't stop at the same line but it was around a line with:
? kernel_init
So I guess the kernel isn't loading properly or something. Do ya'll think I would be better off using the 32 bit?

there is a way to change the OS boot screen from the blue loading bar at the bottom to something more fancy. For example if you take a look at Oracle Enterprise Linux 6 they have a loading screen that makes an "O" on start up. Note: I am not talking about GRUB, I already know how to change the grub boot screen. If so can someone provide the steps needed to modify the OS loading screen.

I am running Debian Squeeze with icewm as desktop environment. I am trying to start feh automatically when the desktop finishes loading. I have tried crontab -e with @reboot /usr/bin/feh /home/user/photos/ & I think that the best way to do this would be to monitor for the x-session-manag process. The reason I think this would be a good solution is that I killed x-session-manag and it killed my x-session and straight to command line interface.

I have successfully installed the Nvidia driver on my FC13 system that is using an Nvidia NV44 (Ge 6200) card. It seems to be working as I see the nvidia driver when I do a lsmod | grep nvidia and the glxgears program works as well as the nvidia-settings program.Basically, I did the following:
Code:
yum install kmod-nvidia-PAE
new-kernel-pkg --mkinitrd --dracut --update $(rpm -q --queryformat="%{version}-%{release}.%

Everything seems to be fine and everything boots up in fedora 11 still; However, the recent updates to my system really hangs my boot time up and it takes a while for it to boot strangely... don't know what exactly could be going on really, but it's doing this for the current and previous kernel of F11.

im looking to boot a PC104+ from a linux floppy...
a) what version should i use that would fit and boot on a floppy?
b) is there any place i can still easily find that version?
c) what is the process (if any) to make the disk bootable (like msdos boot format)
d) can this boot floppy then be installed on a local drive?
i know that seems like a lot but they all kind of go hand in hand from my experience using DOS in such a way. im still out there searching but kudos to anyone who can help.
