Fedora X86/64bit :: Cannot Complete Boot After Most Recent Update
Apr 26, 2009
Just did the most recent set of updates late yesterday (kernel and Nvidia). Since the update I cannot get to a login screen - just blinking cursor. In fact the cursor blinks for a bit then disapears only to reappear as if there are repeated attempts to complete a process unsuccessfully.
The update replaced the xorg.conf. I tied a couple of revisions, inlcuding replacing it with the earlier working xorg.conf. No luck.
Hardware is MSI K9N6GM board with Nvidia Geforce 6100 nforce 430.

The girlfriend did an update a few nights ago. Besides removing her NVidia drivers, it also installed kernel version 2.6.27.29-170.2.78.fc10.i686.
That kernel was causing problems. Now it won't boot at all. How do we remove that kernel altogether?
If we remove it, would simply doing another update from the previous (still working) kernel just try to reinstall that bad kernel?

I am unable to boot my Fedora 14 after last nights kernel update. When I start the boot up and hit F2 the system fails after outputting the line : Starting vservers of type 'default'. At some point the console displays an error message :
serial8250 : Too much work for irq17
How do I restore my previous version? I know some people have suggested in the past - just modify the grub.conf but how? When I boot off the cd I only get access to the liveuser disk. I need to have access to my own /boot/grub/grub.conf file.

I've been running ubuntu on multiple computers for about 8 months now, installed on one computer as it's only OS (XP ran too slowly), and as a side OS for two others, one running XP and one running 7.The problem is, Ubuntu recently stopped booting on my Windows 7 computer. The option shows at start-up, but when I select it, the computer restarts back to the boot menu. I had recently installed an update from Update Manager that required a Restart, so when I restarted it to finish installing I left it to have dinner and it restarted into windows.About a day later, I wanted to boot ubuntu again, but my computer simply restarted, and has been doing this since (it's been about 3 days). I'm not sure if this has anything to do with it, but the last thing I installed before the update was a 1st person shooter game, I can't remember the name, but the icon was a "ka" symbol in katakana.

My attempt to install Fedora 10 x86_64 to a HP EliteBook6930p with an Intel Centrino 2 processor failed. Initially the CD load presents the start screen where I select Install. Then the machine displays multiple errors. When the error scrolling stops the last comments displayed are:
ACPI Error (psparse-0530): Method parse/execution failed [\_TZ_.PSWT] (Node ffff88007fb48720), AE_AML_PACKAGE_LIMIT
ACPI Error (psparse-0530): Method parse/execution failed [\_TZ_.GTTP] (Node ffff88007fb486e0), AE_AML_PACKAGE_LIMIT

The most recent kernel update, to version 2.6.38-11 has been a horror. It hangs on boot up. Sometimes I can get to the log in screen, then it hangs there as well. However, after 3-5 reboots (which is absolutely annoying to do when I just want to use my computer), it sometimes loads up finally. However, if I go to older Linux version in the Grub menu, then I can select 2.6.38-10 and it runs just fine.
So I am looking for a way to fix this problem, whether it be removing the most recent kernel update, or making 2.6.38-10 boot up by default. I noticed that the kernels are listed in the synaptic package manager, but I am afraid to remove the most recent one via synaptic. Is it as simple as removing the Linux version and headers I don't want, or are there other things I need to do in order to make 2.6.38-10 my default kernel at start-up?

Toshiba notebook is set up to triple boot win7, mepis 8.5 and os 11.3.Recent update of os11.3 left system with boot failure, "file not found".I booted mepis and used utility to reinstall grub, but no joy.
Appeared to install ok but on reboot, sda5 identified as 'mepis' not os11.3 and would not boot. Win7 & mepis boot ok.
Next, booted live Parted Magic and repaired as per another thread here, but again, no joy.NONE of the systems will boot.Rebooted mepis live cd and reinstalled grub again. Sda5 still identified as mepis and will not boot. Win7 & mepis boot ok.

Yesterday I ran an update on my Acer Aspire One, which I operate under Fedora11. Amongst the updates was also an update for Qjackctl and the jack audio connection kit. After the update I could not start Qjackctl anymore and all my possibilities with rosegarden and my USB keyboard and fluidsynth were gone. I restored to the system before update ran the update again excluding the two packages concerning jack. Perfect, it works again. So it seems that there is a bug inbedded in the update. By the way, I am quite happy with Qjackctl as the connection tool between my various music making options, which are not very fancy, but I enjoy them. Despite comments in other parts of this forum Qjackctl works very well on the Atom based AAO. I have a kind of protocol of the failure of qjackctl and what I did. I can make that available if necessary

Updated occurred yesterday and installed new ppp on my F12 box. my previously working, stored PPTP profiles under network manager failed to connect claming some thing about security credentials wrong.) downgraded (yum downgrade ppp) , rebooted and its working again. Im not sure where the real problem is, can "the gods above" or below either forward this to the apporpriate bug tracker (packager, testing, redhat, who owns ppp? network manager?) so this is fixed or downgraded in the next F12 update cycle?

When I install the most recent Linux Kernel: kernel-2.6.34.6-54.fc13 (i686) The installation process removes: Linux Kernel: kernel-2.6.33.6-147.2.4.fc13 (i686) Plus NVIDIA: kmod-nvidia-2.6.33.6-147.2.4.fc13.i686-1:195.36.31-1.fc13.2 (i686)
This results in Nvidia.ko not being found during the subsequent restart - the remove activity deletes it from the system. Prior to this activity Nvidia.ko is found in: /lib/modules/2.6.33.6-147.2.4.fc13.i696/extra/nvidia. Without Nvidia.ko the display is set to 800x600 resolution. This is the first time I have encountered this problem with a Fedora Linux Kernel update. Will this problem be fixed in a subsequent update, if so when? If not fixed, where do we find the proper Nvidia.ko module? Also, how do you recommend we install it?

Problem surfaced roughly 2 days ago (March 6th, 2010). When laptop lid is closed, and then opened, the screen remains black. Hard reboot is usually needed. Problem occurs when behavior setting is set to close laptop lid -> suspend, and also when setting is set to close laptop lid -> blank screen. I haven't tested under other settings.
Expected behavior: gnome login prompt appears. Please note that the expected behavior occurred consistently until a few days ago. Additional details:
Intel driver.
Fedora 12.
GNOME.
Thinkpad T60.

I have had no sound on my thinkpad x40 for a week now, first with f12 and now with f13. Under f12 I had sound until about 5/26/2010. I first noticed I had lost sound after some updates around that date. After not being able to solve the problem, I upgraded to f13, but still no sound.
pulsesound seems to be working. If I run pavucontrol and go to the playback tab, and then run paplay /usr/share/sounds/k3b_success1.wav from a console, it registers on the pavucontrol tab, but I hear nothing. kmix shows nothing muted. alsamixer shows nothing muted. pavucontrol shows nothing muted.

My PC has a broadcom wlan adapter. When I clean installed Fedora 15 about two weeks back, the wifi wasn't working on its own. I searched the internet and found out that installing broadcom-wl and akmod-wl would solve the problem. I tried it, and the wifi started working after that.
Wifi not working means there is no wireless option in the network settings and the wifi indicator light is off.. when wifi started working both of these got fixed
Now i did a yum update yesterday, after which my wifi has stopped working again. No use of reinstalling broadcom-wl, akmod-wl, or even kmod-wl...
Code:
lsmod
gives

I've just upgraded to 64-bit Lucid and then tried to access the BBC iplayer. I got a message saying I needed a newer version of Flash, so I followed the link provided to the Adobe web site. However, there doesn't seem to be a 64-bit version available from there.
I'm sure I'm not the first person to have had this problem, but I couldn't find an obvious thread on it among the many flash-related ones, so how do I get a recent version of Flash installed in 64-bit Ubuntu 10.04? Have Adobe stopped creating 64-bit versions, or do they just not do a good job of identifying the architecture?

since lamaresh is not being updated anymore and the wine packages from the official Debian repository are quite old there isn't really much choice for getting a recent version of wine anymore. Since I don't want to use the carbon project or the Mempis repository, as stated here, (at least yet) I have decided to build the package myself. Unfortunately I would like to have a 32bit version but am running a 64bit version of Debian Squeeze. When I run ./configure I get the following message at the end.

I have F10 x86_64 installed on my desktop. When I update the packages, everything works well, except curl-7.19.4-6.fc10.x86_64 which conflicts with the installed curl-7.18.2-6.fc8.i386 (Fedora 8!). The problem seems to be that my repo list does not have the info about the F10 i386 repository. This is the report from "yum repolist"
------------------------------------------------------
Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit
repo id repo name status
adobe-linux-i386 Adobe Systems Incorporated enabled: 17
fedora Fedora 10 - x86_64 enabled: 14,303
[code]...
I don't want to simply remove the f8.i386 package, because it'll take away a lot of other i386 packages that I'm sure I'll miss in the future (nspluginwrapper- .3.0-2.fc10.i386).
The other solution seems to be updating the curl-***.i386 package. However, I'm somewhat embarrased to confess that I don't know where to find the repository information...

Due to this thread -> [URL] we discovered that my Fedora runs rc kernel. After several tries to update to stable one, no result came. I need your guidance to update my system.
What I tried:
yum update
yum update kernel
yum clean all
The result is the message:
[root@dimitris ~]# yum update kernel
Loaded plugins: langpacks, presto, refresh-packagekit
Setting up Update Process
No Packages marked for Update
Can I update to PAE kernel? This question is for i686 cause it cannot recognize all ram (4GB total, 3.2GB available). I run x86_x64 but I have this question...

My main systems runs Fedora 14 x64 with the latest updates (I can't check anymore, but I believe it has the .13.91 x64 kernel). Since this afternoon it became unsuable. First, Opera Browser crashed and the crash report app of the browser showed up. Clicking one of the options there resulted to X crash, if I understood what really went on. No input, mouse or kb, I couldn't go to tty etc. I had to do a hard reset. Next boot proceeded normally up to the point that GNOME desktop is fully loaded. ABRT began reporting numerous kernel oops.
Rebooted again (noticed that init.d fails, so hard reset again) and tried past two kernel versions, same results.
Yum crashes and so does everything. I tried to revert all recent updates with yum history, but yum crashed.
Last update was May 22, and it updated kmod-nvidia.

before the reboot Opera 11.11 had crashed and it's own bug report tool came up. Clicking the "do not report this error now" option probably crashed X, because the screen went black and no input was possible (no mouse or keybord, so I couldn't go to tty either. Had to do a hard reset) Bug Reports:Kernel oops report was uploaded

When I start the X server, my touchpad works for about 5-6 seconds (I'm moving it around to test). After the X server fully loads (and all the software loads in, I presume), the touchpad mouse promptly stops working. I can no longer use the GUI because the mouse is dead.
This seems to be a software bug after the latest update. Is there any way I can regress to a previous version? Perhaps uninstall the recently updated software?
