I recently upgraded my Opensuse dom0 from 11.2 to 11.3, and so Xen from 3.x to 4.01.Ever since, Windows HVM domus hang after a random amount of time. Always within 24 hours of starting though.The VMs are XP and W7, and have tried both hvm drivers and gplpv drivers. There are no errors in xend.log, or the qemu-dm logs or xm dmesg. I have tried apic and acpi both on and off.
If I VNC to them, I can see that they have simply stopped.If I force them off and start them again, there is nothing in the event log of the VM, it just stops and becomes unresponsive, with no associated log entry.I have re-installed one of the VMs from scratch, with a slightly different version of W7. No difference. The stalling even happens during installation, so it doesn't seem like any software I have installed or configuration could be related.
At boot, the system hangs before reaching runlevel 5. No X, no alternative non graphical shells.
Since I have a video card Radeon 9200 I checked the ATI issues. I am running with the radeonhd drivers as suggested. If I boot in failsafe mode, X starts with a really low definition (800x640?), but when booting normally, the system hangs again.
I tried to create a xorg.conf file. Sax hangs the same way as when booting. I created anyway a reasonable xorg.conf using
Code: Xorg -configure
The first reboot works, from the second on I am stuck again.
System boots up to loading NVIDIA drivers, it shows mouse pointer then it hangs up!
This happened after brutal force rebooting, because system did not responded properly (especially Nautilus). Probable cause: forget to unmount.cifs a windows shared folder in the network (mounted with mount.cifs). It happened to me already sometimes (to forget umount.cifs), but never ending with this permaenent hanging up)
-tried automatic system repair with suse boot DVD. It repaired something + changed the bootloader. Problem still there
-rebooted--> system hanging up after NVIDIA drivers. code...
We are experiencing a rather odd issue with SSH access to our opensuse linux server. When accessing it via SSH on the local network everything works fine and there are no issues. However, when accessing it via SSH from an external location it hangs randomly. We can log in without issue and some commands seem to work ok. If we attempt to run a command such as "top" the SSH session simply hangs permanently. using "strace" the process hangs at different points so it is not a particular part of it's execution that appears to be the problem.
I have installed many Linux distributions, but I have never tried openSUSE! So I thought it must be time to try it. I pop the dvd in(I checked the md5 of the iso and checked on the bootable disk) and when I go to install it pauses on the "Probe hard disks"Things I have done:
- Re-checking the integrity of the disk and iso. - Tried booting with the safe kernel. - Tried leaving it for ages
I have been trying and failing to install openSUSE 11.3 for the last couple of days to replace my Ubuntu install.
I have downloaded the openSUSE-11.3-GNOME-LiveCD-i686.iso (have downloaded numerous times in case it was a problem with the mirror I used) and done the standard dd stuff, as well as trying it from my windows partition with the ImageWriter app.
When I try and boot with the USB drive plugged in my system hangs at the boot screen and the usb drive starts flashing as if it is being read, this continues indefinitely and never goes beyond the boot screen and i eventually take the usb drive out and restart.
When plugging the drive in when Im in ubuntu it shows up as "openSUSE Live CD GNOME" and all the files seem to be there. In gparted it doesn't recognise the partitions or anything but I presume this is normal... Also reduces the size of my drive to the size of the Live CD but again I presume this is normal...
I have also tried installing using the NET iso however I have exactly the same outcome.
This laptop is a Acer Travelmate 8371 and has had Ubuntu, Mint, and Windows 7 all installed from the same USB drive. There is not optical drive so I have no other ways to install openSUSE.
I am running 11.3 for about 4 months and it suddenly started to hang intermittently, sometimes many times a day. Once KDE restarted and other times the screen went black. Most of the time it was just hanging and I needed to force a shutdown. The only clue I got is KDE displayed a notification saying "Disabling IRQ #24" not long after it started to go nuts.
After searching around, I figured the problem was with my external video card so I pulled it out 2 days ago and so far it didn't freeze again. After searching around some more, I found many users fixed very similar issues by upgrading to kernel 2.6.35 and I am ready to go for this solution. But now, I couldn't find out how to upgrade the kernel. People said it can be done in Yast but I only see version 2.6.34. What is the easiest way to upgrade?
I'm wondering if anyone is having a similar issue to what I'm experiencing. openSuSE 11.2 was very fast on my system. Since installing openSuSE 11.3, I've been experiencing many short term hangs where I'll lose control of the mouse for a few seconds (usually about 2-5) and the system will do nothing. I don't have unusual load during these time periods and I don't really see any spikes during these periods. If I leave a cpu monitor active, I can see a very very light spike one core0 when it happens, but the mouse and keyboard (and seemingly the whole desktop) hang during this spike so I can't see what's causing it, if that's really the culprit.
I am almost suspecting that I'm experiencing an issue with interrupts... since it seems that everything is hanging for a few seconds, then coming back to life. It does seem to happen more often when I'm resizing or minimizing windows... but that's about all I can say as it also seems pretty random.Here's some basic info on my hardware:ASUS M3A78 Pro motherboardAMD Phenom(tm) 9950 Quad-Core ProcessorGeForce GTX 260G15 Keyboard and MX revolution mouse (just in case USB interrupts turn out to be the issue)So, is anyone else experiencing a similar issue? Maybe we can narrow down what we have in common. Oh, I'm running x86_64.
i have hd encryption activated on my swap and home disks. now every 20 min or so (not really periodic but definetly reproduceable) my system hangs completely for about 4 - 10 sec while the hd led is on. i have a dual core cpu which makes this even more odd. could this be a side effect of hd encryption especially on the swap partition?
I have some trouble booting the current KDE Live Cd (11.2) on my Laptop. I tried USB and CD both. The laptop hangs on the bios bootscreen and I cant select any further option like a boot device. No problem I have with an Ubuntu CD.
New Intel x64 system installed with Opensuse 11.1 (like the KDE 3.5 option) and has been running well until today. Booting stops at "starting jexec services". Even while booting under "failsafe" system halts at "starting jexec services". Unable to boot to command prompt to attempt repair. Ran "repair" option from install disc with no good results. Still will not boot past jexec services.
Every time I boot up OpenSUSE 11.3 it hangs at the same "position" for approximately 3 minutes and then continues to boot. Unfortunately I see no corresponding error log e.g. in dmesg output. Hence, I don't know what is the reason for that. Here is my dmesg output. The delay occurs at 20 seconds after beginning of boot process (line 1085). I also analyzed the boot process with bootchart. My computer: Notebook Lenovo ThinkPad R400.
By trying to install opensuse 11.4 / 1 the installation hungsup at a late level. After rebooting the system, the configuration goes on. When finishing the installation on that way, there are no menus so you can to simply nothing. The problem of system hanging exists also with version 11.3 final release but after rebooting the configuration goes on and when finished, you have the menus.
I had some issues with my system hanging on the automatic configuration of the install so I searched the web for the issue. After reading this thread: Hangs at end of SuSe 11 install I used acpi=off apm=off nolapci as the install options and it worked. My question is, do I need to add those options to the /grub/menu.lst or will the install do that?
I just installed OpenSUSE 11.4 on a completely blank machine, empty disks, etc. using a Network Install. The install appeared to run OK, but when it rebooted to do the configuration, it hung. I tried a manual reboot a couple of times, then booted in FailSafe mode - came up OK and ran through the auto-config. Now, it still boots up ok in FailSafe, but in normal mode I get the wallpaper on the screen, but it hangs there.
Using the latest version of Ubuntu. Trying to ftp to an ftp server. Able to successfully login through terminal but when I try and list the contents of a folder I get "200 PORT command successful" and then it just hangs. I thought it might be the server but I've tried it on different Mac and Windows machines and was successful. I can only assume there's something in Ubuntu which is blocking it.
I have installed ubuntu 11.04 via wubi.My machine stuck while i was browsing internet.This is happening frequently.This happened with direct installation.Same thing happened when i tried 10.04,mint.
two months ago i bought a fujitsu siemens pc (pentium 4)and installed ubuntu 8.04. initially the computer was very slow and you couldnt run many applications at once, in the end it just becomes very slow and even hangs. it could take years to open open office word processor, so i thought it had a problem with the RAM. it initially had a RAM of 256MB, so i bought another 256MB and made it 512. it started to work very fast and it could open word so fast, i could run many applications at once until recently when it began to hang again even when there is only one application running, but it still is very fast, though it hangs often, is there a solution for this problem? i am oftenly forced to restart the machine and its boring.
Using slack 13 this started happening after my last 'upgrade-all' with slackpkg where I think it updated ssl and sea monkey. When I shutdown (fluxbox) it hangs at "starting up x11 manager" I have to ctrl alt del to get it moving again.
i am trying to install ubuntu 10.10 on an eee pc 1000H but the installer is hanging on the installation dialog that shows the check list for installation (min. disk space, connected to the net, plugged in to wall outlet, etc) i check all the options here and then click forward. this is where the installer is hanging.
i had successfully installed ubuntu on this machine before but then i replaced it with 11.4 open suse.now i am trying to replace the open suse with ubuntu because the open suse did not work well.

I am working on Fedora core 4 with kernel verion 2.6.11.. I am running a Manager process which spawns child process. If a child process exits , the SIGCHLD signal is processed in parent process and it is forked again. When the parent process receives a SIGTERM signal it first tries to kill the child process using SIGTERM signal . if the child process dosen't get stopped then kill it using SIGKILL. Now,the Parent process sometimes gets hanged and the strace shows : futex(0x98535e0, FUTEX_WAIT, 2, NULL <unfinished ...>
My Fedora setup is working great so far, and I don't really have any complaints. I installed it on a portable hard drive, connected over USB. Thing is, I installed my system with the LiveCD, and I wanted to download the full DVD for a friend because of his needs for his system. When I try to download the full DVD (whether over Firefox or Transmission), the system hangs by suddenly showing a screen with the Fedora logo in the middle and a light blue background, the same as in boot up. Also, my caps lock blinks in a consistent fashion like a metronome. The same happens whether I try to download to the portable hard drive or to a FAT32 partition on my laptop's actual hard drive. Is there any way to fix this, or can I be calmed by the fact that it just happens because it's installed on a portable hard drive? This problem isn't happening on Ubuntu (which is installed on my laptop's hard drive), where I am downloading from right now.
I've been having trouble with my desktop ever since I upgraded from F 11 to F 13 last night. Finally, however, I got the proper version of the nVidia drivers installed. However, it's stopped completing boot. I've edited grub at boot to get it to show the boot messages and find that the last thing it reports is success in registering the binary for Windows applications. After that, it just sits there, doing nothing. I can go to an alternate console an d log in, but that's all.
If I log in and run startx, it fails.It reports that it was unable to load the nvidia module and "no screens found." Does anybody know what I should do next?I've removed both kmod-nvidia and akmod and am going strictly with the nouveau drivers.I've booted, used Ctrl-Alt-F2 to get a console, logged in as root and run the setup program to configure X to run that way, then returned to the main console and logged in as myself. Shortly after my wallpaper shows up, and long before I have a working desktop, it goes white and stays that way. Aside from getting a different video card (The old one worked Just Fine right up until I upgraded.) what else can I do?
I installed adobe reader quite some time back. It was working fine. Nowadays it gets stuck up and then the screen fades out and then after some seconds it gets back to normal. What could be the problem.
I'm having problems booting up my Fedora 14 system. I see the Fedora splash screen (the one with the egg-like logo that colorizes as it loads); the logo fills up completely and then everything hangs - all I see is the egg logo, and nothing else is ever displayed. I also can't get to any of the ttys via the CTRL-F1 sequences.
I can boot into single user mode just fine. The install scripts all run just fine. The system itself is actually up an running, so I suspect this is either something in the KDE startup, or after init processes all of the start up scripts.
I'm assuming this isn't a startup script problem, because I see a "started XXX" message for every service in the rc.5 directory - in other words, all the startup scripts ran from rc.5.
So, how do I find out what is hanging? I'm not seeing anything in /var/log/messages, and pstree didn't tell me much about what init was doing.
I used to be able to follow inittab to see all the things it did at boot, but since inittab was stripped of everything it used to do a few releases ago, I don't know what init is doing anymore.
I am running Ubuntu 9.04 on a wireless networked host machine. The wireless NIC is usb based. Its running inetd for network based servers (telnet, ftp etc).For some reason telnet, ssh or any application specific connection, hangs for a few seconds and then comes back. This happens after every few minutes. I do not loose any sessions or any data flowing across but it is sort of very annoying.It is a dual boot machine and I have also got Windows XP 64-bit. When am running on windows this does not happen, hence am not sure if it is something to do with the wirless nic or something else
