The latest kernel screwed up my laptop and I would like to reload the
previous kernel to get back to where I was but I dont see it as available
anymore... Is there an archive to pull previous versions from ?
2.6.33.6-147.2.4.fc13.i686
I would like to try the rawhide updates. If messed up my PC's couple of times so now before I do anything I would like to roll back changes and resort to last working kernel ( and related s/w) in case that fails . HOW do I do it? ( c.f Windows Last good session ) ALTERNATIVELY folks - is there a way you can backup and restore to full accuracy all your previous kernels .- I mean just inset the CD .It will identify the partitions , then it will ask you "where you want to restore them" and then it just restores the prev. image.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm having an issue with my suspend, and nothing seems to be fixing it. Every time I suspend, the computer starts up as if it were shut down. Somebody recommended that I use a previous kernel, such as 2.6.35-28, rather than the current kernel, 2.6.38-. When I open Synaptic, no previous kernels are listed, so I wanted to see if anybody else knew how to install previous kernels.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI upgraded to 2.6.35-30.56 last night and now my system's a little flaky. Everything seems to be running ever-so-slightly slower and fullscreen flash is now choppy. The weird thing is the Grub menu upon bootup only shows the latest kernel, but not the previous kernels. Doing an "ls" of the /boot folder only shows this newest kernel. I'd like to revert back to the previous kernel but don't know how.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a fairly aged Pentium 4, RAID, desktop computer with Fed 11. I started off with the 686 PAE kernel and update it whenever the update software tells me to. Some time ago I downloaded an NVidia driver which said it needed the 586 kernel so I installed that as well.I then uninstalled the NVidia driver as it caused some minorish problems without any improvement to the graphics. The bottom line is I now have the last three 686 kernels and the last three 586 kernels, which I'm pretty sure I don't need. The machine seems to run fine whichever I use with no discerable differences.My questions are, what is the difference between the two types, which should I actually use and how do I get rid of the other. It would at the very least reduce bandwidth use when updating.
View 3 Replies View RelatedMy MythTV system is running under F12. It is in "appliance mode;" all configured and happily doing the PVR thing without a pressing need for upgrades.However, there is a feature in the upcoming 2.6.32 kernel that I'd like to take advantage of; internal support for a certain capture card.
I see 2.6.32 mentioned as part of the F13 release. My question is, will it also be available for F12 . . . maybe sooner than the F13 release?Another way to put this is: How wedded are Fx releases and kernel releases? Is a major kernel goalpost like 2.6.32 the reason why Fx releases are made?
i installed the PAE kernel and was wondering if it's safe (and how) to remove the non-PAE kernels. from the system.This is F13.

I have 3 kernels installed. When I look at my installed kernels with yumex or package kit all I see is the latest kernel. rpm -qa lists them and I was able to remove the oldest using rpm -e.Is this some new feature of YUMEX and package kit to only show the latest version installed?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm sure there is a thread on this somewhere, but after looking though the first 100+ search results, I can't seem to find it.
After a kernel update today, I noticed that new kernels are not being added to my grub menu.lst (so consequently, I was running an older kernel).
Any obvious reason why this would happen (kernels being installed normally, with yum update)? I thought the whole process was supposed to be automagic.
Would it have anything to do with the fact that I just kept my F11 menu.lst, and added a F12 kernel to it when I installed F12 (to a separate partition), then eventually (today, finally) removed the f11 kernels from it?
Here's my menu.lst, in case it's useful:

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm running FC 13. I believe that the base install is kernel 2.6.33.6-147.x86_64. That is the last version of the kernel that I have installed that includes an initramfs file. Neither 2.6.34.7-56 nor 2.6.34.8-68 installed an initramfs file. Since my root volume is in LVM, I can't boot with those kernels. I saw in another post that doing a "yum install kernel" would install the missing files. I tried that and it tells me that kernel-2.6.34.8-68.fc13.x86_64 is already installed and latest version.
I ultimately want to upgrade to FC 15 because I've got a new nVidia video card and need driver 270.41.06 for fc15. My fear is that if I upgrade I might not get the initramfs files in the new versions of FC and end up with an unusable system. Is there a way to add the initramfs files for the newer kernels and/or will I have the files after an upgrade?
Starting with kernels 2.6.29.x and above (which includes 2.6.30.x and 2.6.31.x),whether obtained from "kernel.org" of from the "FC11 repository", none of theseresume properly after putting the computer to sleep (suspend)... in my case, via"pm-suspend".When I press the "On" button, I hear the fan, but get no video. And the fan neverreturns to the normal resumed, slower speed -- which it normally does after aroper resume.Eventually I have to issue "Ctrl + Alt + Delete" to reboot. So the computeris resumed to some degree (to have been able to accept that sequence), butnot all the way - no video (and who knows what else)Any ideas -- I've searched high and low. Are there new kernel parametersI have to be aware of when I do a "make oldconfig", and go from there?

When I went to start up the computer, the kernel usually hung at the same place on boot up, although sometimes it booted just fine. The default kernel is 2.6.31.9-174.fc12.x86_64. It's boot up arguments are:
Code:
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.31.9-174.fc12.x86_64 ro root=UUID=75d16864-ba74-49ef-aaa9-0a1dd3c92254 noiswmd LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SYSFONT=latarcyrheb-sun16 KEYBOARDTYPE=pc KEYTABLE=us rhgb quiet rdblacklist=nouveau
I also have kernel 2.6.32.7-37.fc12.x86_64, 2.6.31.6-145.fc12.x86_64, 2.6.31.5-127.fc12.x86_64. I have seen the same behavior out of all four of them. Last night I ran Memtest86+ all night. It took eight passes with no memory errors. As far as hard disks go, I have two Seagate Barracuda 1.5 TB drives operating as software RAID 1 (mirroring). One of the drives does have three bad sectors. The motherboard is an Asus P6T6 WS. This morning I plugged in the GP diagnostic chip that came with it, but I'm not seeing a whole lot useful there, except that now it is just displaying "FF" non stop.
I did some poking around on the web, and it looks like "FF" is supposed to mean that the CPU isn't properly seated, which makes no sense because the system monitor software is detecting all four cores perfectly, and I have no other odd behaviors anywhere else. At this point I'm rather at a loss to understand what could be causing the difficulties. Sometimes any of the four kernels boots fine, and sometimes they don't. The funny thing is that on the blue "boot progress bar" all four kernels hang at exactly the same spot if they hang at all. After doing some more poking around, I'm relatively sure that "FF" does NOT mean that the processor isn't seated correctly. I'm going to try contacting Asus and see how far I get towards getting some good info on what the diagnostic codes mean.
Yesterday i updated fedora 13.After reboot problems started with te display driver.Scrolling sreens goes very slow and with little steps.Moving a screen from one side to the other goes also very slow.It seems there is a problem with the ATI driver.I also have problems after new kernel updates.The new kernels simply won't boot? The boot proces hangs everytime the fedora logo turns wite.

View 16 Replies View RelatedFedora-13 will not play sound. It's definitely a kernel issue and I am not the only one from what I read elsewhere. Prior to kernel 2.6.28 audio works on this Samsung Q1 Tablet PC. Any kernels from 2.6.28 onwards will not recognize my sound card and therefore won't play sound no matter what. I've proved it running different livecds (Suse, Mandriva, PCLOS, etc.) with kernels 2.6.25, 2.6.27, etc., all with audio. How can I use/import a suitable kernel for Fedora-13 so that it will recognize my sound card (driver snd-hda-intel) on this Q1?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a system with one 2.6.35 kernel, one 2.6.38 kernel I built from a koji src rpm and 1 rawhide 2.6.39 kernel I installed directly with yum. Now that a newer 2.6.35 is out, I'd like to yum update my 2.6.35 kernel so I'll have those two in the 2.6.35 range. But the problem is those newer kernels (38 and 39) make yum think there's no update that's available because they have higher version numbers than the new 2.6.35.12-90 kernel. Is there someway I can make yum update to 2.6.35.12-90 anyway? I was thinking I could download the kernel and kernel-devel rpm files for 2.6.35.12-90 and do the yum install for them off the hard drive, would that work?
View 2 Replies View RelatedAs I was trying to do some patching on Ubuntu's kernel I've found out kernel.org's patches cannot be merged correctly with the kernel source. I'm wondering if distributions like Ubuntu have their own kernels different from official ones?
