May 23, 2011
Hardware - Compaq615, video - radeon hd 3200 After clean installation of 13.37 x64, proprietary ati driver, multilib. xfce.
All was o.k., video rendering was direct etc., etc. then i rebooted, and system freeze at startx. Ctrl-Alt-Backspace not working, hard reset needed. I tried xorgconfig, Xorg -configure, aticinfig --initial, deleting /etc/X11/xorg.conf with no result at all. /var/log/Xorg.0.log empty. When i do startx from root - all is o.k, writing from root now.

I have an Intel Core 2 Duo board with Intel GS45 + Intel ICH9M chipset. After installed from DVD (i386), it will ask reboot, and I clicked reboot button, the system reboots, but it will freeze somewhere from 3-threaded progress bar to the desktop show up. It freeze most likely in the "F"-icon flash or the dots showing up.

I have 13.37 installed and am thinking of changing to it but I have had two system freezes with it. This never happens on 13.0. Once was when I was selecting reboot from kde and another time I was closing another program - I forget which.
I have this in kdm log and xorg.log

I have a bit of a problem, I managed to get my macbook to freeze on the start up so I can't turn on my computer. This is not the first issue I've had with mac so I wanted to switch to ubuntu (esp with the new one. looks really good...)
Anyway, for some reason loading from a either a CD or usb doesn't seam to be working, Is there a way, from unix, I can force the computer to use the usb key or cd?

I have been using vim for years without problem but today I have met one weird scenario which I can't solve it after troubleshoot for the whole day and google around. This happen to my 2 machine at home which both installed with Slackware 13.1..I just got my laptop done setup with Slackware 13.1 and I ssh from my laptop to my desktop that have vim installed. I use one of my laptop virtual console to do the ssh login to that desktop.
And using vim in that laptop virtual console and Konsole itself, all works fine. The problem only occur when I ssh into the desktop using a virtual console.It seems like if I supply the vim specifically a .vimrc, it will work fine. It seems like it's taking forever to find the .vimrc file. But if I remove that .vimrc, it will also freeze. If I create a new user in that desktop and ssh again and then do vim, it will also freeze.Any one face this strange problem before ? I know I can still use Konsole to ssh and do vim, but I wish to solve this and since vim is been there for so long, I think this problem will most likely faced by someone before.

i don't know if this is a slackware related issue but i have the following problem.I'm running a slackware64-current on my system. For my private data I'm using a QNAP NAS (Some ARM CPU with linux kernel 2.6.22), the file shares provided by NFS. I mount them withmount -t nfs 192.168.0.2:/Public /mnt/qnapWorks fine, no problems.But now, if i try to copy some large files ( > 1GiB) to the NAS share, sometimes the systems completely freezes during the copy process. I have to do a hard reset to bring the system back to work

I have just installed Slackware 13.37. After the install - when executing startx for the first time, the xfce desktop freezes when its almost (?) fully loaded.
While loading I can move mouse and if I hit caps_lock the lamp at the keyboard turns on and off.
In the setup I choosed to use vesa - allthoug I afterr that even tried to boot from lilo into vga-mode.
I am, a litle rusty after have been brainwashed through Ubuntu for a few years (sigh) - so I really am not sure which config-file I should edit, and xorg.conf seems to be empty.

I've been trying to install Slackware on my Intel Celeron 750, but it keeps freezing during the installation.
It usually freezes during a screen that seems to show a bunch of coordinates and processes. The last one looks like this:
Code:
[<c10035be>] kernel_thread_helper+0x6/1x10

I have installed Slackware 13.1 without a problem and have a working wired ethernet connection. However I need to set up wireless but each time I try to do this using wicd I have a total system crash during the start up screens at the very last line before the welcome line appears.
Nothing works to resolve it, and I need to press and hold the start button and restart. I have checked the md5sum, installed the software again several times but the same happens each time which results in me having to reinstall.
I have installed wicd using slackpkg update, then slackpkg install wicd.
I have also tried downloading wicd from the slackware /extras folder and installing it on its own. Either way the same happens.
I have tried various manual approaches to setting up wireless following various links but again without success.
I now have a clean install again but am not wanting the same to happen.
Can anyone suggest what I might need to do?
I am using an intel Pentium 4, 2.53 ghz, 512Mb ram, GeForce4 MX 440.

Unfortunately, I've encountered a disaster the likes of which I've never seen before:Yesterday, in slackware 13.1, while using firefox, the window would no longer move or resize, and I could no longer click on things in that window.While this happens, the icons in xfce4 panel no longer acknowledge that the mouse is rolling over them, so I can't launch terminal from a panel, etc.; however I am still able to right click on desktop and open terminal and other apps that way.Since it was high time to upgrade to 13.37, and since I was experiencing weirdness, I decided to do a clean install: I actually repartitioned my drive, and reformatted the partitions (all xfs, and after backing up my data, of course)...
I don't know if that's significant, or not. there seems to be some lines in /var/log/Xorg.0.log about my logitech mouse.way too complicated to write by hand.I will log out and back on... sometimes that frees up other windows. Then I'll add the Xorg.0.log.

I have a Ubuntu 10.04 fresh installation on my HP laptop. Installation successful and boot OK. But the desktop randomly freeze. During freeze(about 15s each time), all programs are not responsive. Sometimes I can switch program by click, but program seems locked. How can I know which module cause the freeze?

KDM does not start after upgrading my Slackware-current 32bit to KDE 4.4 using Alien Bob's packages.
In syslog I get:
Code:
What am I missing? (I used the exact same procedure on a 64bit Slackware-current installation and everything works beautifully)

Actually, Slack64 runs just fine under VirtualBox on my old HP under WinXP, But the installer for Slack86 won't boot under VirtualBox on my Toshiba Netbook under Win7 starter. I tried updating the 13.1 install I have on there, but I get the same kernel panic when I try to reboot that. It always bails just as it is switching over to the new kernel. The dump fills my screen so I can't see the actual error. How can I capture that initial startup log? Slack86 runs just fine on my old Compac Armada 1700 (266PII 92M/12G), but that's a very different environment.

I have upgraded from 13.1 to 13.37 on three PCs. No problems on 2 of these (home server and laptop), but on the third machine (main Desktop, where most KDE customisation had been done of course), KDE refuses to start for the main user (me). It will start OK for root and xfce will start OK for me, so X is OK with the updated NVIDIA driver that I have also installed. The KDE splash screen starts up and four of the five splash icons come into focus, but the fifth one never does. Some disk rattling goes on for a while but then ceases.
I have tried renaming the .kde folder and .kderc but this has not helped. Are there other KDE config files that I could try renaming / removing? Or are there log files / error messages somewhere that I should consult.
Obviously I am not in a position to change any KDE system settings from the KDE application.
Just tried KDE with a newly-created user and it's the same as with my user - no desktop. So KDE is only starting for root.

I normally boot into runlevel 3. KDE is my default DE. I use
Code:
To open KDE. I would like to give the other DE's (full install of Slackware current) a fair try, but I am having trouble starting the other DE's from the command line. They all work from runlevel 4 using the kdm chooser, but that's just a hassle and in all honesty will likely irritate my lazy-bone to the point of not using them on a regular basis.
Booting into runlevel 4 isn't a good option because I am frequently experimenting and booting to the command line makes troubleshooting easier. What do I need to do to be able to start the other DE's in runlevel 3?

Any way to permit the users to bring the ppp connection up and down ?

I've just install Slack 13 and had been looking into the website for configure info. What is my problem is the #xorgconfig does not start on my system. It says command not found. I had searched for answer on the web and found no answer so I post here for help. Is there anything else I need to install to get my intel graphic card display more then 1024 resolution?

I installed android SDK together with eclipse Helios 3.6.1. I downloaded and installed all android package and setup a virtual device in android 2.1 (then 2.2, 2.3). However, when I click "start" device in "android SDK and avd manager", the dialog appear and then close, but nothing happen more. I also try to run it from console by change to tools directory of android SDK and run, but it also not work, there is only one line of desperate result: "Segmentation fault". I also try to add "-no-audio" as many forums advice, but it just keep the result segmentation fault.
My device I configured to have 32MiB of SD card (and I tried 16MiB or more also). I also created the helloworld application, then try to start it, but it just stop at "Launching a new emulator with Virtual Device a2" (a2 is name of my device), and nothing more happen, I also added "-no-audio" to run configuration but I still there. By now, I have not seen any virtual devices appear. I also tried to uninstall and install again all the packages of android, but nothing help. Here is the screen when I use GDB to figure out where is the fault:

I have 13.37 installed on three PCs. Two nvidia (propriertary driver from Slackbuilds) and one ATI (radeon dirver). Kaffeine 1.1 installed from Slackbuild on all three machines. Runs fine on the ATI box and on one of the nvidia boxes, but fails to start (or provide any messages when command-line started) on the other nvidia box.The box on which it will not start is also the box that has a DVB card in it - which is why I particularly want kaffeine to run there as it has a really easy interface to the TV card which ran just fine under Slack 13.1.
My gut feeling it that the problem is connected to the presence of the TV card which is somehow srewing up initialisation of kaffeine, but (other than removing the card physically) I am not sure how to test this or test whether the card is working. lspci and dmesg shows that it has recognised during boot-up.Any ideas on how I should investigate this? Or on how I can bypass the problem by configuring vlc (which runs fine for dvds and video clips) to view DVB output?

I am using slackware64-current and this morning I have updated my system with using slackpkg. (As you know, huge changes has been applied on the current branch. Kernel, glibc and etc..) Everything went flawness and seems OK. I did not see any error message or somethink like this. After the update, kde does not start. Problem is, after KDM login, nothing happens and turn back to KDM login screen.
To understand what is going on, I switched to init 3 and performed "startx" command. Result is same but I saw some dbus error.
Then I checked whether hald and dbus does run or not and I saw it is running without problem.
Lastly I have removed dbus and hald packages and reinstalled but problem is still running.
