General :: Installed ASUS HD4670, Now Unable To Install ANY Debian Due To Low Memory Corruption?
Feb 1, 2010
I have a desktop PC which initially had the Intel D946gzis mobo, its chipset as video controller, some RAM and so. There I installed Debian without a problem alongside WindowsXP.
I've bought an ASUS HD 4670 video card, installed it on the PC and now the installed Debian does not work, while the Ubuntu live CD refuses to run no matter if I set acpi, apic on or off... it throws me some low memory corruption at position just like shown here. With normal configuration, Debian throws kernel panic (keyboard lights blinking). Anyone have faced this before? Ideas? Thanks!! (meanwhile, debian hides in a virtualbox :'( )
Edited: Tried Ubuntu 9.10 x64 (due to the fact i've a core2duo at 2GHz) and it throws a kernel-panic to me (flashing caps and num LEDs). On screen, can be read different lines with things like:
This is my first post in these forums. I'm still quite new to Linux (using Mint 9) so please bear with my not-very-articulate question(s)When I boot up and open up a tty terminal I get a message saying "Memory corruption detected in low memory." I've done an extensive google search about the issue and it seems not uncommon. I ran a memtest with no errors returned, so I'm sure that there's nothing really wrong with the memory; apparently it's a bug in the kernel that's causing this.
I am new to C and linux. My code below does arbitary writes but I cant figure out where or how it does it.
I am calling the insertNode() function with seq = 'MISSISSPPI$' and alphabets = 'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ$'
Code:
Weird behaviour I should mention is that when I check for NULL pointer in node->child[index], the unassigned values are not null anymore, they point to arbitary memory.
When I am trying to run my application on RHEL 6 (Kernel 2.6*), I am getting the following error.*** glib detected *** ./corenms:malloc(); memory corruption : 0x086691d0 ***
I wrote a multithread program(approx 1000 thread have to run) and each thread has to parse a file(for each thread there is one file, ex:thread1 has to parse file1 and thread2 has to parse file2 like this....). I wrote "parse" program as follows. It is working well, if i create 50 threads. but if i run more than 200 thraeds Im getting doublefree corruption as follows:
And some time I am getting parsing problem and error af follows:
Code:
powersetting.6607:1: parser error : Start tag expected, '<' not found (where powersetting.6607 is file name, when i check this file it is started with '<').
I installed Debian Lenny on a friend's computer which is an older Dell workstation. The install went well. I delivered the machine last week, got it set up in there house and all was fine. 2 days later they said it crashed with a black screen and lots of words they didn't understand. I get there today and rebooted. X would not start but it ran a whole bunch of automatic self tests but could not recover. I was able to log in as root and run fsck. That made the necessary repairs. I was able to reboot and log into the KDE Desktop. Hopefully they don't break it again.
I asked them what they did to it to cause it to freak out like that and they had no idea. So, as to my question, what causes something like that? I know there must be a log file somewhere on the computer that will give me some insight into the matter, but I'm not sure where to find the file.
I have a server that runs a minimal instalation of debian 5.0. The server has only 128mb of ram. I am trying to install virtualmin but I keep getting the message: spinner: fork: Cannot allocate memory
I have read that this is because the system is out of memory. I am wondering if there still is a way to get this installed om my machine. After the installation is complete I have methods of reducing the amount of memory the application usses.
I'm trying desperatly to install Ubuntu Netbook Remix on my Asus Eee netbook. I've created an USB bootable stick. It boots. I get to the screen where I can choose the language and where I have the choice between "Try" or "Install". I choose Install. After that, I get to the screen about the preparation of the installation. It says I have enough disc space, that I'm successfly connected to the power and to the Internet. I click on next and... nothing happens! It stays for ever on that screen.
configuring my ASUS USB-N13 Wireless-N Adapter I was able to get the drivers installed as per the instructions I found in the forum but I'm not sure how to get the ASUS USB-N13 Wireless-N Adapter to be recognized by the drivers and how to configure it to connect to the Internet I tried following the instructions it came with but I did not understand the steps to set it up it was like chinese to me no clue what it said I am running Redhat Linux 9.0 on the laptop
I am trying to install ubuntu netbook remix on my asus netbook.I created a USB drive from windows.On Save and Exit from BIOS setup, system boots from hard drive with Windows 7 OS.
I manage a computer remotely in a different country. The last upgrade I did (to openSUSE 11.2) seems to have had one issue that I didn't work out until later. I am unable to "Online Update" or "Software Manage" the system. Whenever I do I get the following error:
[Code]....
I have been through a number of attempted fixes via the thread 434687-software-repository-corruption but have not managed to resolve the issue. There is no one at the location that could repeat the "update" to hopefully fix the issue that way. I have a copy of the 11.2 DVD iso file on the remote computer. Is there some way that I can get the repository DB rebuilt or reinstalled so that I can then install other software and do Online Updates? Whatever I try has to be doable with the system running so that I can OpenVPN connect and issue commands remotely.
installing drivers for my onboard NIC card on my ASUS Nettop EB1007. The NIC is a JMC250 PCI Express GB. I first installed CentOS 5 on it and then it wouldnt show up. So I decided to try installing with Ubuntu and it was perfect. I didnt have to do anything else to get it detected. However, I would like CentOS 5 on this unit to practice on. Below is my attempt to install the kmod-jme-1.0.6.1-2.el5.elrepo.i686.rpm on a fresh CentOS install. Unfortunately, the dependencies are failing.

I couldn't connect my Micromax 300G modem in Debian Linux. From internet (in Windows Vista), I came across the information of USB_ModeSwitch and then I downloaded it. While going to install it, I came across the problem that TCL-interpreter is not available in Debian Linux. Then again I restarted my laptop in Windows Vista and connected my Micromax modem and from internet downloaded TCL8.5.10-src.tar.gz. But while going to install it, I came across the problem that " configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH " . Also as presently, I am unable to connect my modem therefore I am unable to issue the code:" apt-get update ".
On my windows console, i have installed sun virtualbox. I only have 768MB ram and so i downloaded a trial version of eboostr. I thought it would work, but when i tried an install of 11.2, also, i tried a debian install, it did the same thing, it froze up in the middle of the install with the error Code: unable to allocate and lock memory. I guess that eboostr doesn't work, but is there a way to use a flash drive as ram in virtual box?
I have prob with running Metaspolit tool in BackTrack When i used expolit aurora (windows/shell/bind_tcp) it started a server for me running in my ip addrerss on port 8080
when the target pc trying to access that web an error appear saying : "Sending internet explorer "Aurora" Memory Corruption to client 10.64.35.52" you can check out the attached file hint to solve this prob so the session can start?
usb devices, such as external hdd, memory stick and mp3 player, when I connect them to USB, they show up in Nautilus, but when I click on them, Nautilus is unable to mount them and returns the following error: Unable to mount location Error mounting: mount exited with exit code 1: helper failed with:mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdc1, missing codepage or helper program, or other error in some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so
I appear to have the exact problem that is currently listed in the 7.6 errata about EFI boot and black screen while trying to install ("Potential issues with UEFI booting on amd64"). The problem is that their workaround is not an option for me. This is a new rig and the motherboard doesn't appear to have any kind of ability to disable secure boot. I also don't know if my problem is exactly what they're thinking when it comes to that entry.
I'm able to get to the Grub install screen where you have the option to install Debian but when I select an option (any option) the screen turns off, back on but is black. All activity in the system stops after a few seconds (3-5 seconds) and that's it, she's done. I've tried all the options to try and disable secure boot but the options listed below are as close as I can get (and apparently should be sufficient).
The CD ISO used was the 7.6 netinst CD. I've also tried the Jessie ISO (Testing) that was downloaded about 2 hours ago. Same results. Unlike the errata which says "intermittent booting problems", my issue is consistently reproduced with no other result no matter what I do.
The rig: -Asus H97-Plus running revision 2202 -Intel i5-4570 -32GB DDR3-1600 -128GB SSD Drive -No external video card - using on board only but have tried both VGA and HDMI ports with the same result.
BIOS settings (is it still called BIOS or is it UEFI now?) -Fast Boot: Disabled -Launch CSM: Enabled -Boot Device Control: "Legacy OPROM Only" or "UEFI and Legacy OPROM" (tried both) -Secure Boot State: Enabled (it's grayed out and I'm unable to change this) -OS Type: Other OS (supposedly makes it so you can boot non-Windows OS)
The Debian page with the errata: [URL] ...
Look for "Potential issues with UEFI booting on amd64"
The obvious suggestions I've tried: -tried USB boot & CD boot - same result -tried altering the grub script to add the ACPI options - no effect

I have an ATI Radeon HD4670 graphics card. I am trying to run OpenCL on it, so I installed the ati driver 11.4, and the AMD app sdk 2.4, and then rebooted. Now, when I try to run one of the samples, it says this error message: GPU not found. Falling back to CPU device I obviously have a GPU, as I have used it before with version 2.3 of the ati stream sdk. How can I make it recognize my GPU?
i have this mini laptop asus eee pc with an n280 processor. is there any guide or tutorial that can enlighten my way to install linux on this tiny machine?
Today I installed Lenny on a new server. The server didn't have any CD-Rom, so I tried putting the net install on a memory stick using unetbootin. The install went fine, but the problem was that the memory stick became sda and two SATA disks in the server became sdb and sdc.When I then tried to remove the stick, the SATA disks became sda and sdb, and it would not boot, because it had written the MBR on the stick.It hurried a little bit, so I had to take out a CD player from another computer, and connect it inside the server to get Lenny installed.But it would be cool if it was possible to install with the stick. And no more waste of CD-Rom players that will be used only once.
I am trying to access my Debian system from a MB Pro. I believe I have all the necessary packages installed,but I unable to figure out how to actually connect, because I don't know what my hostname should be.On the Debian system, my username is jack and the hostname is aceraspire. jack@aceraspire:~$ hostnameaceraspireOn the mac terminal, I type ssh jack@aceraspire but it says ssh: Could not resolve hostname aceraspire: nodename nor servname provided, or not known.I feel like I'm missing the .edu or .com portion, but what is it supposed to be/how can I set it or find it?
I have a asus eee 701 4G mini laptop. I am tring to instal an external antenna booster GSKY model gs-27usb. How to instal drivers for it. Anything i tried finish by permission dinied! Also i tried to install extra memory (usb flash memory key) and i could find the way to do it.
After changing my video cards from gigabyte HD5450 and saphire X550 to two saphire r7 240s one of my debian installs no longer supports rotating the monitors either with 'Monitor Settings' or xrandr. The only difference between these 2 Jessie installs is that one was upgraded and the other one was fresh. The problem is with the upgraded one. On the fresh installed debian I just put the ati proprietary driver so I won't do further testing on it but xrandr was working fine on it before that.
I tried going over the ATIHowTo [URL] .... and everything looks good. Tried purging the non free firmware and reinstalling. I verified the version numbers of libxrandr2 and kernel of both installs. It is either some scrap left over from wheezy or a configuration file I am not aware of.
So what actually happens is xrandr does not say anything, blanks out all windows on the screen with only their background color and title bar showing, changes the lxpanel to its background pattern except for 2 blanked out boxes almost to the right of the screen( I have 10 tray icons there before it blanks), activates the screen I wanted to rotate with the proper rotation. On my main screen I can't click on anything. On the rotated screen I can right click and I get my openbox right click menu like I do on my main monitor before the command but when I try to run something nothing happens. The only way I can get out of this situation is to go to ctrl-alt-f1, log in as root and type 'service lightdm restart'.
Both of these monitors are connected to the primary video card, an ati r7 240 saphire. The main one is on vga and the other one is on DVI. I also have another monitor connected to HDMI but it's not being used. I have yet another monitor connected to the VGA of the secondary GPU I don't think it's a problem is it? I tried not using 'xrandr --setprovideroutputsource 1 0' and it still did the same thing.
I tried just launching openbox with no LXDE and it did the same thing.
Also another strange thing is when I stop the lightdm service and try to 'startx' or 'xinit' my screens go blank; numlock, control-alt-delete and control-alt-f1 do nothing and the only thing I can do is an emergency REISUB. I didn't configure this install to use startx or xinit yet but should it really lock up my system?
On the affected system my script looks like this (I already did this step by step and the 'rotate left' line is causing the problem):
I'm a new Mandriva user,and have no clue about Linux system,but to be honest I don't want to use Windows product anymore. So I got the Mandriva 1 Spring Gnome,and installed it on my DELL Optiplex Desktop,works fine and very fast,therefore I decided to do the same with my Studio XPS 1640,but after I got a dark screen,so I used an external display(My TV) then realized that it doesn't support the video card on it ( ATI Radeon HD4670 ),and I don't know what to do.
we found that if we use 'top' to show the memory usage of a server (SuSe Linux 10), we can get virtual memory usage as well as 'Resident memory' usage. For virtual mem or a particular process, it is around 1.1GB, which is large but for resident memory, it only consumes 300MB. Are there anyone who knows what the differences are? I would also like to know whether the difference (1.1GB - 300MB) = 800MB are actually available for use by other applications in the system.
