I have just installed Fedora 11 to my laptop and it appears I am in trouble. I have received two kernel failure messages, which I post below. What are the consequences of these issues and how can I solve them ?
Message 1:
Message 2:
I've been using Fedora 12 for about a month, and i'm very happy with it. Even tough, there's only one thing that worries me, and is giving me problems at the same time. I'm getting an error from: syslog@localhost that says: kernel:Uhhuh. NMI received for unknown reason b1 on CPU 0 kernel: Dazed and confused, but trying to continue. Kernel: seems to be a problem, likely on the PCI Bus
I'm not able to reproduce the problem every time i want, but, sometimes happens when i activate the snow effect combined with the cube effect, using kwin. My computer and OS specifications are: Pentium IV HT(disabled) Nvidia Geforce 8400gs 2 Gb Ram DDR2 (1xGB, 2x512) Hard Drives: 2x80GB Using Fedora 12, KDE 4.4.1, with Nvidia privative drivers, nouveau disabled
i have a dell inspiron laptop lap top with windows7 os.my hardisk is 320gb capacity.now i want to install fedora as my secondary os. I tried fedora12 but instaltion terminated abnormally with the message safe reboot needed recievied signal 3. i have 20 gb unallocated space in my disk.

For example, say I have made a PHP-based blog application and it's located at example.com and I'd like to give members the option of posting to their blogs by sending email to a special @example.com address. The email messages received there will be inserted into a database depending on the sender's address, with the body becoming the post and the subject line becoming the post's title, etc.
Another example could be how those trouble ticket systems let customers submit tickets via email, while the support agents operate via a database-driven Web application. Is this the type of thing one must code from scratch, or is there an open source solution out there which only needs to be configured accordingly?
Why am i getting this error?

Kernel failure message 2:
When my computer shuts down, I always get a long error message from the kernel. It's the very last thing the computer does and I can't even use the keyboard, since the system is halted. I wanted to read it more carefully (it's very long and doesn't fit the screen) and file a bug report against the kernel with it. But for that, I needed to save all that text in a file.

I don't know here is the message:
I am using latest updated Fedora 13 (presently kernel-2.6.34.7-56.fc13.i686).
kernel imklog error messages fills my hard disk again and again, /var/log/messages file becomes more than 5Gb daily.
the /var/log/messages file contains following entries:

I think, I can stop kernel logging from /etc/rsyslog.conf, but I wanted to know the real problem.
I have just updated my kernel and immediately struck trouble. The kernel update is marked as security update.
When booting I get a multiple warnings " deprecated config file /etc/modprobe...", then "no root device found" followed by "boot has failed, sleeping forever"!Clearly something is amiss with this update, so figured the best thing might be to remove it and wait on a fix, but attempting to remove the kernel via the package manager would cause a whole lot of other packages to be removed as well.Instead, I edited grub.conf, commenting out all the kernel-2.6.34.7-63 lines, so that the default is now the previous kernel (2.6.34.7-61).
I am getting a problem when login into FC10. It boots correctly an shows the login screen; then, when typing my user and passwd goes to the desktop and shows a KERNEL FAILURE. At this moment, most of the times the PC is blocked and doesnt works any more. One time has continued working without problems.
After the las failure, my system log has this info:
Code:
I have checked my hard disks (fsck) y every thing looks fine. However, i dont know how to fsck the VolGroup0. I cant'get it unmounted.
Code:
I upgraded the kernel of my machine with a yum update, and now it will not boot. I am running Fedora 14 on a 64 bit machine. I really really need it to boot. Help!
I did Ctrl+Alt+F2 and managed to log in. I have kernel x86_64 2.6.35.12-90.fc14 installed. How do I log in as usual? I never get to a login screen.
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.
I was finally able to install Fedora 11 x64 after choosing to only install packages from the repository on the install DVD. Prior to that when I had chosen tio install from the default online repositories, the install itself failed with a Python exception ( see my other post ). Now, however, once I boot after the install I eventually receive a kernel panic message, and failure. The exact same thing happened with CentOS 5.3 x64 after a flawless install. So unless someone knows what might be going on I will assume that Fedore, Red hat, and offshoots for x64 bit systems are just not for me. I have been able to successfully install the latest Mandriva and SUSE x64 Linux distros so whatever Red Hat/Fedora has done just does not work on my system.

This is what the message says:

Kernel failure message 2:
Call Trace:
Last night when I turned on my lap top (5 year old Acer TravelMate 4650), it was not able to boot up (10.04 LTS). No system files could be read and a lot of error messages was displayed. In fact, it has done a few checks for disk error lately during boot up, but no further warnings given. I gave up recovering, and simply re-installed Ubntu 10.04. I was wondering if this could be related to a virus attack?
View 9 Replies View RelatedThe 486 kernel works just fine, and while I have only 1GB of RAM at the moment I hope to have 2GB someday and would like to take advantage of the dual core CPU, so I would like to configure grub to run the 686 kernel by default. For whatever reason, it runs the 486 right now and the 686 fails in a major way: there is no network connectivity at all. It could be plugged into my cable modem router and it shows no wired connections. The fact that one works and the other doesn't puzzles me since I haven't touched either since the install and a few rounds of upgrades.
I should mention I'm newbie but getting better; I managed to install debian on this x60, yet while preserving the factory install rescue & recovery partition and preserving the factory install MBR so that ibm-specific hardware functions (thinkvantage button, etc.) still work. This required me to use dd to copy the first 512 bytes of my debian partition to a file in the windows partition, etc., and modifying the windows bootloader. (I wish I had learned dd long ago--it rocks). I did this because if I ever resell the X60, the fact is most people use MS Windows and having that partition adds a perception of value to some potential buyers; not to mention I paid $ for it (I was young & stupid) so why should I delete it. I also backed up the recovery partition on another drive using dd over NFS in case the hd ever heads south.
Anyway, I've never been comfy with messing with the kernel. I did once recompile a module for ALSA because it had a bug in it for an old Yamaha integrated sound card on an old PIII and the newer version worked [alsa fails on this x60 too but I think I found a post on here that has a solution I will try later]. But I'm clueless as to networking modules, not to mention the correct module is installed already from Intel for this chipset. So what is there to do?
Here's a clue: the ifconfig output is radically different from the 686 and 486 kernels. Looks like hardware is not being detected since eth0 fails to show:
I would show the diff output below if it weren't so long--and not allowed--upon 2 text files, the first holding the output of modprobe -l under the 486 kernel and the second under the 686 kernel.
My server started to throw the following errors at me:

My /var/log/messages file is being flooded by messages like these.
Code:
is there any way to disable kernel messages on the console? The problem I have is that it is almost impossible to work on the console due to a flood of file system errors from the kernel.
I've checked /etc/syslog.conf and disabled kernel logging to the console. Even with syslog turned off the messages still flood the console.
I need to debug a kernel panic. It prints some long log to the console, but even if i set 1920x1440 VESA framebuffer mode, i can't see it whole.
So, i would like to direct all the kernel messages to a COM port and read them on another machine. Is there any way of doing so? What are the other (maybe better/easier/etc.) ways of catching whole kernel panic messages or scrolling the ones already displayed?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have an OLED screen on my laptop that I have configured to show status information. The current driver I have installed in Linux for it is able to display messages by sending them to a script as an argument separated by spaces.Example: the command /opt/asusg50oled/utils/notify.sh Hi Everybody "Hello World" displays on the oled screen:
Hi
Everybody
Hello World
If another message is sent before the old ones disappear and it reverts to status info, it pushes off the top message. Example: less than 30 seconds after the previous example, /opt/asusg50oled/utils/notify.sh "Bananas have potassium" is executed:
Everybody
Hello World
Bananas have potassium
What I want to do is have kernel messages (the kind you see by running dmesg) forwarded to this script. For example, when I insert a USB drive, the following information would show on the OLED screen as they're logged:........
Recently I am trying to install the latest Ubuntu / Xubuntu but after the kernel messages the display becomes corrupted. The machine is a Clevo laptop with the dreaded SIS 671 / 672 chipset. The Ubuntu 8.04 is working flawlessly. Any other version I get several problems and depending on the mood of the system I get a vertical running display ( not readable ) or a left horizontal displaced screen (readable) ...
I tried more tan several CDs ranging from 9.01 to 10.10 both Ubuntu or Xubuntu. What is the plainest (simpler ) VGA mode in order to install it? I have tried vga=normal and even VGA =3 with no success. With the latest Ubuntu 10.10 I get another problem it simply does not recognize the HDD / SSD. I have traced the SSD problem with the sata_sis module in kernel 2.6.35 and up... Other distros have the same problem ...
I'm having intermittent trouble with my network card.
It always makes kernel messages like the following:
Code:
What i'm trying to accomplish seems rather silly but is needed for my little project here.
I'm using OpenSuSE 11.2 as a media center PC and need it to login automatically(console not X). That one i accomplished without problems.
However, after login i can see all the info about the services that were started and that needs to "go away".
One could do a "clear" in the .bash_rc and or .bash_profile but it will still show the login prompt which i don't want to see either (i don't even want to see the blinking cursor as well).
Question: How do i accomplish that so that the login console shows only the "splash screen" without any output of the kernel,rc.status nor the "issue-file"... just a plain blank screen ?
Is there a way I can redirect messages from kernel ringbuffer to a logfile, e.g. with rsyslogd? With redirect I mean that the messages do no longer appear in dmesg, but only in the logfile.
In my case that should be iptables log messages.
Lately I'm encountering a somewhat annoying malfunction: almost every boot, my desktop is stuck, HD red led is constatnly on, and i get a message from kerneloops that I had a kernel failure. I can move the cursor a little and slowly or not at all. Few violent reboots and I get a clean boot. Running Debian Lenny kernel 2.6.26-2-686 on a Pentium 4 2.0 GHz with 250 MiB ram.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI just installed OpenSUSE 11.4 x64 as a fresh full-install last week. Seems to be running great, up until the last couple days when I installed AVG. Every time I do a avgscan, it runs for 20 to 60 min, and then causes the PC to reboot. The only thing I can find is the following event in the /var/log/messages:
Code:
May 1 11:45:01 linuxbox sntp[7653]: Started sntp

[Code].....
I get this result every time I try to do a virus scan. I also have seen this result once when doing a large scp transfer from another Suse box. The AVG log just terminates and gives no warnings as to what's going wrong.
Are there any other logs I can check out to try to troubleshoot this further???
I'm running the 64 bit version of Ubuntu 9.10 on an AMD64 dual core platform with all the most recent upgrades installed. After the most recent Kernel upgrade version 2.6.31.20 the computer failed to boot correctly. Extremely slow getting to the desktop and a general failure to preload any programs that I load on boot. I had to uninstall and revert back to the previous Linux headers which solved the problem. If it makes any difference I have the machine setup as an apache2 server along with my standard desktop environment.
