I see these boot.log warning and understand that the directory where these config files are kept has (or is) changing. Okay, but is the correct procedure to just move them over from the /etc/modprobe.conf dir to the /etc/modprobe.d file? I am wondering if some changes to those config files or those that they are related to must be also made? A portion of the boot.log is below.

i got this warning message while booting
WARNING: Deprecated config file /etc/modprobe.conf, all config files belong into /etc/modprobe.d/.
WARNING: Deprecated config file /etc/modprobe.conf, all config files belong into /etc/modprobe.d/.
I keep getting this warning when booting Fedora 11: WARNING: Deprecated config file /etc/modprobe.conf, all config files belong into /etc/modprobe.d/.
View 4 Replies View Relatedthis started to happen recently after a reboot due to updates. The screen displays many, meaning more than 12 of: WARNING: Deprecated config file /etc/modprobe.conf, all config files belong into /etc/modprobe.d/ which is then followed by: Boot has failed, sleeping forever.
I deleted /etc/modprobe.conf, so that is not the problem. The normal boot process will display the modprobe warning twice and all is well. If the warning is displayed more than twice, the boot will fail and I have to try again.
I've just updated my linux system (Debian) and went to compile some code I'm working on. However it causes some problems, presumable because of GCC up dates. I get many of my subject line errors for example
../../common/Version_Control.cpp: In function int VersionControl():
../../common/Version_Control.cpp:55: warning: deprecated conversion from string constant to char*
So I check up the error and it comes from my error handler code which is a function
extern void SetError(char *string,int error_number)
The net tells me all I need to do is convert char *string to const char *string, however when I do so and recompile I get the following error
Error_Control.cpp: In function �void SetError(const char*, int)�:
Error_Control.cpp:41: error: invalid conversion from �const char*� to �char*�
make: *** [Error_Control.o] Error 1
I think I've done exactly what's recommended ?
My problem is that the warning keeps apperaing when I run g++ compilation.
Say, I have a system runtime function with header (imaginary)sysruntime.h: void printfunction(char *line);
Then in my .cpp file, I will include the above header #include <sysruntime.h>
Then, I do the below:
Line12: char *linetoprint = "Print this line";
Line13: printfunction(linetoprint);
But, I will get the warning message "Line12: deprecated conversion from string constant to 'char*'". (Even though it compiles)
My question is how should I declare my char* so that I wont get this warning message, and can still run printfunction(char* line) correctly?

After a kernel update, the system always updates the GRUB menu, and the newer kernel is the default boot option.However, after an update on my F13 X64 system, the GRUB menu was updated, the config file still sets the default to "1" but if i left the automatic boot it will boot the previous kernel... am I crazy or missing something here?Here is my /boot/grub/grub.conf file:
Code:
#boot=/dev/sda

i have a VPS server running centOS 5 and i need to edit the boot loader config file but my VPS does not seem to have the usual suspects of grub.conf or lilo any where on the system.
where the boot loader config file might be or what it might be called ?
If it helps to know, the VPS was setup instantly the moment i bought it.
New install of FC12 and after logging into the KDE desktop then going back to Gnome, the Desktop Config File for KDE shows on the Gnome desktop. I ran gconf-editor and I can see the file but no option to not display in Nautilus. Is there an easy way to not display the file on the Gnome desktop without messing up the KDE config file?

And I also got this warning when installing VLC.
I had occasion to add a few lines to rc.sysinit. Turns out the lines syntax was wrong. Instead of the booting ignoring those lines and proceeding on, then giving me an error warning or perhaps dumping into the interactive mode it just hung up! After several tries at moving on I discovered ESC dropped me into some sort of unannounced shell I got the installation disk out and with the repair system option using VI I got the lines deleted and all went back to normal. Now my suggestion is that if something does not make sense in terms of syntax while booting then cover it by doing the above and ignoring it with a warning later.

After an upgrade (preupgrade) from Fedora 12 to 14, system-config-boot opens from the menu and displays the right information but does not change grub.conf. I have searched the forums and found nothing like this. It worked before the upgrade. I have forced a new install of system-config-boot. I can change grub.conf manually. There are no SElinux messages that I can find. It would be nice to get the gui working.

I've been trying to install the gmagick extension for days now without success. I always end up with the same error message:
checking GraphicsMagick configuration program... configure: error: not found. Please provide a path to GraphicsMagick-config program.
ERROR: '/tmp/pear/temp/gmagick/configure --with-gmagick' failed
It's no wonder why I get this message as the location simply does not exists, its being unpacked to 'gmagick-1.0.3b2' and not 'gmagick'. I've tried to copy/paste the configuration file (config.m4?) to my manually created 'gmagick' directory within the temp folder but that didn't solve anything.
