Fedora :: Upgrading Dbus-Libs But Computer Will Not Boot
Oct 21, 2010
I've been having problems with Dolphin hanging on me and I found out that the problem is due to something with dbus 1.2x. So I downloaded the source for dbus 1.3.1 and proceeded to update dbus by incrementally uninstalling and installing all of the packages it requires. Today I noticed that both dbus-libs 1.24 and dbus-libs 1.3.1 were installed, so I went to get rid of the 1.2 version so that yum would stop telling me there was a conflict.
This is what I did:
Code:
su
rpm -e --nodeps dbus-libs
rpm -Uvh file:///root/rpmbuild/RPMS/X86_64/dbus-libs(versionNum).rpm
I ran that once and restarted, but I think that something happened the first time because rather than it replacing the 1.2x version with 1.3.1 all that was left was 1.2x. So I did the same process as the last time, but after removing dbus-libs I forgot the path to the RPMbuild so I closed konsole and tried to open Dolphin. Well, obviously that's not going to work. So then I, even more stupidly, restarted... And now Fedora won't boot up. How do I reinstall dbus-libs without a bootable Fedora?
I recently installed Debian 7 on a dual boot with Windows Vista. Thus, when I boot the computer, I am prompted by a GRUB screen to select Windows Vista loader, Debian, and Debian (recovery mode). I would like to upgrade Windows Vista to Windows 7. Will this cause an issue with GRUB? Will a Windows 7 loader be added to the list or will a Windows 7 loader replace the Windows Vista loader? Will there have to be a setting change within Debian? Within Windows?
when I connect my iphone (3GS, 4.3.3) to Fedora 15 it gives me this error: Unable to mount iphone DBus error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Message did not receive a reply (timeout by message bus). The weird thing: after looking in var/log/messages it appears that it is trying to be used by NetworkManager. And when I lookin NM, i can see iPhone as an ethernet device (cable unplugged).
I am in the midst of upgrading my F11 computer to F13. I have run PreUpgrade, and the files have downloaded, it's restarted and now it's asking me to do the Manual TCP/IP Configuration. I have only enabled IPV4. It's asking for the following info (which I can't seem to get right)
[Code]....
The IP I want the computer to have is 192.168.0.5, my router is 192.168.0.1, my subnet is 255.255.255.0 I don't know what the Name server is for. Do I need to put the above into into any of the fields above? I've tried a few times but with no luck.
do have installed glib and dbus and can find them manually , /usr/include/glib-2.0/glib.h , but while comipling applicaiton it gives following error messages.
/usr/include/libosso.h:32:18: error: glib.h: No such file or directory /usr/include/libosso.h:38:23: error: dbus/dbus.h: No such file or directory /usr/include/libosso.h:39:32: error: dbus/dbus-protocol.h: No such file or directory
When I install a commercial audio into the CDROM drive I get th following: Unable to mount Audio Disc DBus error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.InvalidArgs: Mountpoint Already registered
I upgraded, using package manager, to the latest kernel (2.6.35.10-72); I upgraded also kmod-nvidia and kmod-wl to the latest version, and the upgrade worked.After restarting the PC, though, it wouldn't boot Fedora: it stops at:"setting hostname for <my laptop's name>:[OK]"then it simply hangs there. It doesn't move, it doesn't boot, it doesn't ask for a login and it doesn't let me use command line.I can, however, boot and run Fedora fine if I select the previous kernel from the GRUB menu.Anybody can give me a hint to find the cause of the problem?
Last night I was updating my system and I ran into some dependency errors. It seems like gecko-libs is having problems. here are my yum update results.
Code: Setting up Update Process Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package epiphany.i586 0:2.26.3-1.fc11 set to be updated ---> Package firefox.i586 0:3.5.1-1.fc11 set to be updated --> Processing Dependency: gecko-libs = 1.9.1 for package: epiphany-2.26.3-1.fc11.i586 ---> Package xulrunner.i586 0:1.9.1.1-1.fc11 set to be updated ---> Package yelp.i586 0:2.26.0-5.fc11 set to be updated --> Finished Dependency Resolution epiphany-2.26.3-1.fc11.i586 from updates has depsolving problems --> Missing Dependency: gecko-libs = 1.9.1 is needed by package epiphany-2.26.3-1.fc11.i586 (updates) Error: Missing Dependency: gecko-libs = 1.9.1 is needed by package epiphany-2.26.3-1.fc11.i586 (updates) You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem You could try running: package-cleanup --problems package-cleanup --dupes rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
I assumed this had to be a FAQ, but after hours of searching, how to do this on FC11, but that didn't work with the yum on FC10. I don't need a huge list, but at least the basics (ld-linux.so, and I imagine the C++ compatibility libs).
I'm not sure what when wrong since I have a few DVDs and they all play well in my normal DVD player, I later attempt to mount it in my Ubuntu 8.10 I'm presented with the following message:
DBus error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
May I know what does this really mean?Is there something in my computer that require a fix?
I untared a few libs on the wrong server (that's the when you're supposed to start laughing!) and I corrupted my server. Everytime it boots up, I get the following error:
/sbin/init: relocation error: /lib/tls/libc.so.6: symbol _dl_out_of_memory, version GLIBC_PRIVATE not defined in file ld-linux.so.2 with link time reference. Kernel panic - not syncing. Attempted to kill init!
I can I restore the original libs? I'm running RHEL 2.6.9-42 on a Proliant DL585.
I then hear 2 or 3 faint clicks and I get a blank screen, with 2 faint lines at the top. I have been searching and trying to figure this out, but to no avail.
After the 4th install The printer will at least produce a test page, but the available resolution is low, I suspect I need the gutenprint enhanced drivers, printer is a EPSON R285. Where do I find the nvidia libs so I can use the Nvidia driver for my ancient 8500 GTX. Using the package manager find nvidia shows nothing.
Are these libs held on another repo, as in other distros?, and is Acroread availble? is there a listing if the repos somewhere, I have some apps that have to be compiled and are a pig to get going, due to using those funny cut down libs that ubuntu use. When I backed up the last failing version of FC13, which hung as soon as yum was started, didn't print ect, I didn't close firefox down before copying the file. So the user config is locked, ie, you get firefox is already running, and fails to start. I found parentlock and deleted it, but but there is another lock file that needs to be removed, and I can't find it.. Anyone know the location of the lockfiles for firefox.?
I've just upgraded from 10.04 to 10.10 (32 bits). Everything seemed to be working great until I tried to hibernate; now it just goes into a blank screen and the "crescent" hibernation/suspend blinking LED on my Lenovo X200 just keeps blinking, and I had to force-shutdown the computer to turn it off. In short, hibernation doesn't work for me in 10.10. This didn't happen prior to the upgrade.
After I upgraded to Ubuntu 11.04, I could normally turn off my computer. Every time when I tried to turn off the computer by pressing the 'shut down the computer' button at the upper right corner of the screen and selecting 'Shut down', it will first appear as if it is shutting down normally, but in less than half minute, it stops at a console-like screen with the last few lines of text
Code:
gnal 15, shutting down init: dbus main process (775) killed by TERM signal init: Disconnected from system bus
and then stopped there. I then have to manually and physically power off the computer.
I purchased a Windows 7 upgrade for my PC and plan to do a clean install of 7. I currently dual boot Windows Vista and Ubuntu. I understand when I run the upgrade, it will replace the GRUB Bootloader (Ubuntu Bootloader) with the Windoes Bootloader, when this happens, I won't be able to get back into Ubuntu. How can I correct this issue and reinstall the GRUB Bootloader?
I'm installing x86_64 F14 on my Lenovo T61p, but I'm missing the i686 xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-173xx-libs in rpmfusion. Am I the only one or Is there a reason?
Edit: wine 32bit and Google Earth for example need them....
I have a little (well, don't think it's easy to solve) issue - my computer stalled at irqbalance (set up), /etc/init/irqbalance.conf (installing, but hung up).
So, my question is what to do? Should I just push the button for 6 seconds, unplug the power cord, or what? It's been like this for 5 hours, I thought it'd go away, but no. Of course, I'll leave it for night, but there has to be a way out. I don't want to reinstall the whole OS, I have lots of programs (and files, actually, too) in there. So, if you know what's the reason and how to deal with it, please tell me. Thank you. I know there are many geniuses in there. I launched updater yesterday, oct.3, and pushed install button only today.
Basicly I turned off. I turn back on and the Plymouth Graphical Splash just sits there when the "F" apears... I managed to get a text login by doing ALT+Control+F2 and managed to get on IRC and I got some help (I still can't boot normaly) but thanks to the solution by nirik which was to get a text-login and to run startx, that works, however it doesn't fix the problem of me not being able to boot normaly, If I add nomodeset to the KMS I get:[URL] strangly enough the reason why I reset is because the Internet wasn't working. This error seems to mention eth0 quite a bit..

I'm setting up my first Linux install and I was wondering if I would be able to boot Fedora from a CD while keeping every other file on my computer, or in other words if I would be able to put the /boot partition onto a cd. I've also read that Linux can be booted entirely from a logical partition. If that's true then can anyone help me in setting that up. Mostly my problem is I already have four primary partitions, one being a logical drive with plenty of free space in it, and I can't get rid of the primary partitions I already have.
I have recently installed Fedora 15 KDE (with Dual Boot Win7) on my computer:Dell Optiplex 330, Intel Core2Duo- 2.53 GHz, 32 Bit, 2GB RamnVIDIA 8400 GSWhile going through the Guides mentioned here: for F15, I tried to install nVIDIA Drivers after updating the Kernel.suyum update kernel*rebootHowever it gave me some errors and then I did try the following method (as described in Missingbox studio guide)su -yum install akmod-nvidia xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs.i686 bootconf-gui kernel*develfollowed by Reboot.
I start my computer, I get the screen which shows that Fedora will boot in 3 seconds. This is followed by a black screen with a "Blue followed by white" Bar running towards right (where Fedora 15 is written)....It stays there for ever (I waited for 3 hours and then switched off my computer).Presently I am writing this post through Windows7.Is there any way I can repair Fedora through Win7 or by any other means.---------- Post added at 10:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:51 AM ----------I remember the instructions (given by leigh123linux) that we should provide the following information rpm -qa *vidia* *kernel*|sort;uname -r;lsmod |grep -e nvidia -e nouveau;cat /etc/X11/xorg.confI had it saved as a .txt file in my home folder.
I have a Dell notebook without cd-rom. I want to use a usb-pen to boot the computer so I can do a netinstall. Unfortunately I can't find much discussing this topics. At least as far as I can see.. Everybody is talking about making the usb a live-cd etc etc tec.. There has to be an easier way? It should be possible to just copy file1 2 and 3 over to the usb here in Vista, reboot and start the install so I can type in the location and start the netinstall!
I am running Fedora 11 on a Gigabyte GA-MA790X-DS4 MB, AMD x2, and three WD5000AAKS 500Gb drives. Today, I had to reboot, and the PC stops on a normal reboot with merely the word GRUB on a line on its own.
It takes a long time to perform the "Detecting IDE drives" process which may be some help in diagnosis.
When I tried to boot in with the installation disk to do a rescue, it got as far as complaining with the following messages before freezing completely:-
ata1: SATA link up 3.0 Gbps (SStatus 123 SControl 300) ata1: link online but device misclassified, retrying ata1: reset failed (errno=-11) retrying in 5 secs then it displays ata1: limiting SATA link speed to 1.5Gbps after which it freezes
diagnosis of what is wrong will be gratefully received. I am beginning to think that I will need to replace the MB.
i'm having a little issue with a small script i'm working on. It's a bash script that, amongst other things, checks the current playing song in Rhythmbox with "rhythmbox-client --print-playing". Now the thing is that if I run the script by hand it works perfectly, but when it's run by cron this part gives the following error:
Code: (rhythmbox-client:9848): Rhythmbox-WARNING **: /bin/dbus-launch terminated abnormally with the following error: Autolaunch error: X11 initialization failed.It's running on my own cron (crontab -e) set to my user.
Should I have hal and/or dbus services running when my system doesn't have GUI? For example, in case of a mail/web server where I have console applications only on it.
