I just recently installed ubuntu 10.04 and it works great! I got it to work with both of my printers, scanner, and zune! The problem is occasionally when I boot up ubuntu it stops and displays "[drm:rs400_gart_adjust_size] *ERROR* Forcing to 32M GART size (because of ASIC bug ?)"
View 2 RepliesI installed selinux and it caused ubuntu to stall/hang on shutdown, so I got rid of it, and it is still hanging. The splash stops at the third/fourth progress dot and just sits there.
View 1 Replies View RelatedUbuntu hangs on splash screen when shutting down and restarting after creating startup scrip.
I created the upstart script using the following method:
sudo gedit /etc/init.d/local.autostart "Edit local.autostart"
sudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/local.autostart And sudo update-rc.d local.autostart defaults 80. After this ubuntu hangs on the splash screen during shut down. If I remove the script by doing: sudo update-rc.d -f local.autostart remove
Then ubuntu can restart once again.
When I'm shutting it down it hangs on the splash screen. The screen then fills with white in a weird way; it's hard to describe but it's like watching film become exposed to air. It almost looks like there's something wrong with the screen but there isn't. I have no idea why it could be doing this.
My laptop is a Toshiba Satellite A305D.
Shutting down sometimes hangs during the purple ubuntu shutdown screen. This especially happens when shutting down via ssh.
For example, sometimes I need to leave and wait for some operations to finish. Later, I ssh into the machine to sudo shutdown now. It tells me it's going down and disconnects me and all, but when I get home the shutdown screen is still on with a few white and red dots (those that are animated during shutdown).
When this happens, I do a slow Alt + SysRQ + R, E, I, S and U before I manually power down in order to keep my file systems happy.
Also, shutting down sometimes leaves me with a black unresponsive desktop. I can login through ssh and do a /etc/init.d/gdm restart and my desktop (or login screen) comes back.
I am running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS x64. I was running X86 before and I had the same issues with the shutdown hang. After a clean install of x64 it took a few weeks before I got the same symptoms again. The black desktop thing is new with x64.
what to do the next time this happens in order to find out why it's happening?
I'm not 100% certain, but I'm fairly sure that fglrx is preventing clean shut downsHardware is an ASUS E-35M1-I Deluxe, so fairly new, and I'm running Ubuntu natty.I couldn't find anything damning in the logs under /var/log, so I'm not sure where I can look to find the specific errors. All I know is that when I'm running with fglrx shutdown takes forever, as if it's waiting for the X server, and it just never shuts down cleanly, but when I run with the standard radeon driver everything shuts down quickly and cleanly.Sometimes when I tried to execute a "service slim stop" or "service gdm stop", the whole system would hang, and needed a hard reset.

recently a weird error occured on my Ubuntu Karmic. When I shutdown (or reboot) the os, the flashing logo shows and then the whole process hangs with last few lines of shutdown log displayed. The last line then says this error:
Code:
init: rc main process (pid) killed by TERM signal where pid is actual pid of that process.
Then I have to shutdown the computer manually with hardware button. It's no big deal, it's just not that comfortable and I'd really like to know why this is happening.
Completely new Gateway dx4850-45, installed 11.04 64 bit.
Symptoms:
- Both restart and shutdown hangs, have to hold the power button to kill it.
- Once the screen saver kicks in it hangs,
- Try to reinstall using 11.04 and 9.10 and they both hang. On the screen there is briefly some ascii text talking about "... found 2 index files ..."
the (almost) last message I see is"shutting down (remotefs) network nterfaceIf I then press Ctrl-Alt-Del the system goes on until:shutting down (localfs)network interface: eth0... and that's it - further go on possible,by any means.No complete shutdown possible.Until present I did at least get nojournal replay at the next startup

I'm using Debian Sid xfce on my lenovo laptop. When i try to shutdown, the screen always stays on (the fans turn off). It says "reached target shutdown", then this happens: [URL] .... and then it hangs. I have to press the power button to shut it down. (I have the same problem with reboot). I had the same issues with Jessie.
Things i tried so far and didn't work:

I edited /etc/default/grub and added the following options at "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT":
acpi=force, acpi=off*, acpi=noirq
*acpi=off: shutdown (not reboot) worked a few times but i didn't have wifi and power manager didn't seem to work
none of them worked..
I have no energy or wake up options at my BIOS.
I found out that i can normally reboot with the Alt + sysrq + REISUB key combination.
I have just made a clean installation of FC12. The only change I have made for now is to disable the NetworkManager and set a static ip address. My problem is that when I click "shutdown" it doesn't complete the shutdown and hangs due to some kind of kernel error. Then I have to use the power-switch to shut it down. It doesn't happen every time, but it happens often (every 3rd shutdown or so).
I get this error-messages on the screen:

12.2 is up to date and am running the Firefox from Slackbuilds. There was an update to FF a few months ago. Since then FF "hangs" when I close it out. It does seem to shut down better from the home page instead of whatever site I happen to be on at the time of shutting down. I do have a few addons to FF but they were there before the update with no issues. The addons are Gmarks [disabled], Rankchecker, Scribefire, SEO for FF [disabled], SEO Toolbar, Weatherbug and Web Developer. I haven't done any "fixes" so I'm fairly certain I didn't create my own problem.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a SMB share being mounted during boot using a /etc/fstab entry.All that seems to work fine, but on shutdown or reboot I found that the system hangs for a variable period trying to unmount the share. It appears from the log that the unmount is happening after the network connections are closed.Is there someway around this, or is there some other way I should be mounting the share so that it is closes successfully at restart or shutdown?
View 1 Replies View RelatedCreating a separate /tmp partition manually during install prevents a clean shutdown.
Setup: Debian 8 minimal server configuration (SSH only) using net install as virtual machine on Windows Server 2012 R2 Hyper-V (Gen 2).
1024 MB RAM, 20 GB VHDX, and 1 Processor, EFI boot
Packages installed: openssh-server, sudo, unattended-upgrades, bsd-mailx postfix
Application: IPv6 gateway using 6in4 tunnel
Symptoms: When shutting down the operating system (poweroff or reboot), the message
A start job is running for Unattended-Upgrades ( xx seconds / no limit ).is displayed on the console and will persist for several minutes before eventually timing out and shutting down.I've tried several different configurations. Any configuration that creates /tmp automatically (whole disk with single partition, or disk with separate /home, /var, and /tmp partitions) works fine and shuts down promptly. When I partition the disk manually (512 MB EFI Boot, 17 GB /, 3 GB /var, 512 MB /tmp, and 512+ swap) the problem occurs. I've narrowed it down to just the /tmp partition by testing and comparing various configurations (including/excluding partitions, placing partitions on a separate disk, changing the partition sizes, matching against automatic configurations, etc.).
I have also compared the /etc/fstab and /etc/default/tmpfs configuration file between working and non-working systems and cannot see any meaningful difference.
Last night I shut down my computer and left, since it goes automatically after I tell it to shut down. This morning, my computer was still on, with some shutdown messages like "Stopping MySQL server mysqld" and such.
The last line said "deactivating swap..." and didn't appear to be doing anything. code...
i'm having a problem shutingdown my ubuntu 9.10. When I shutdown, it hangs after "Deactivating swap". It doesn't say fail or ok, just hangs there. Keyboard is still working.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm running Ubuntu 10.04 and a small Windows 7 partition (cuz I can't get Ubuntu to run my MSI TV@nywhere plus card but that's another issue).I can log into Windows fine. If I choose Ubuntu, however, the boot process will go thru a few screen flickers. Then one of two things happens:1) I get a scrambled up pixelated image (not sure what it is) for about 3 second, then it goes into the login screen and I can log in normally.2) I get the scrambled up pixelated image and it hangs. This happens about 4 times out of 5 when rebooting.
I do have an nVidia card and a beta driver (they published it the 21st, I believe, of this month) but this happened long before that. It's happened ever since I installed any of the drivers (I've tried a couple different versions, hoping to fix this) for my card.

View 4 Replies View RelatedHW config is: AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+ Black Edition, MSI 785GTM-E45, 2X 1Gb Kingston HyperX PC2-8500. I have set up GRUB to dualboot openSUSE 11.2 and WindowsXP. Initially i had set up system with defaults: CPU@2600MHz (200X13) and therefore RAM@800MHz. Both openSUSE 11.2 and WindowsXP worked just fine. Memtest86 found no problems.
But after a while i decided to change this setup to: CPU@2500MHz (250X10) and therefore RAM@1000MHz, as it promised better overall performance. And now Windows still boots and works better then before. Memtest86 still can't find any problem. But openSUSE 11.2 hangs at boot. I've suspected cpufreq governor, but changing from Ondemand to Conservative in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq doesn't help.
Strange problems and I don't know if they are related. This is Ubuntu 10.4 32 bit on a Toshiba Qosmio x505-q875 laptop dual boot with Winblows 7. One drive bay is a 64GB SSD with windows, my root, usr, and swap partitions on it. The other is a 1TB drive with the home partition.
First Problem: After the Grub menu disappears (defaulting to Ubuntu) about 25% of the time nothing happens. No harddrive light blinking, no cursor, nothing. Everything just stops. I have to use the power button to reset it. Happens several times in a row occasionally. I've never had this happen with Windows.
Second Problem: Sometimes Ubuntu doesn't see the sound card at all. The speaker icon is grehyed out and when I go into sound preferences, it doesn't list any sound device at all. Rebooting fixes it. This happens maybe half the time.
Last Problem: This one happens when the sound doesn't work. When i go to shut down the system, the hibernate and suspend options are not in the shutdown menu, and when I do shut down, it only logs me off. Even at the log on screen, if I tell the system to shut down again, nothing happens. I can log back on it that means anything, but shutting down again has the same effect.
My system sometimes crashes on startup/shutdown. No idea what causes it

I have installed a cluster computer with 10 nodes . The manufacturer is HP . All nodes and the master node have redhat enterprise linux installed in them . When I shutdown the nodes from the master terminal using "shutdown -h now" they get shutdown . But they dont get completely turned off . This issue bothers me when the power supply is given , all nodes boot up simultaneously generating a huge heat .
Thing to note : When we shutdown our PC they get completely turned off . When the power supply is given , a press on the Power On button is required to boot the system. But , why does it not happpen in the case of cluster? Is there any other way of completely turning off the nodes from the master terminal ?

Today, it stopped responding to ping, I could not SSH into it (once, I managed to come so far that it asked for my password, but I got timed out) and I could not connect via VNC.
I switched it off, to boot it up again. Post completed, and the screen went black, before the white text "Read Error" appeared on the screen.
I shut it down again, waited a minute or so, before switching it back on. This time, the "read error" did not show up. The "text only" startup for Ubuntu showed up, so I hoped it was all okay. It turned out it wasnt.

I have a small but annoying problem... I have two scripts that I want to run automatically one at boot and one at shutdown. For the one at boot I tried to put it in rc.local or to create a file in /etc/init.d/ based on the others files in the folder but nothing worked... I need it to run system-wide and not once a specific user is logged in.
For the script at shutdown I don't know how to do it but it can be user specific or system-wide I don't really care. I am running Ubuntu 10.10 64bits with kernel 2.6.35-24-generic
PS. I should add that when executed manually both scripts works perfectly well and I don't need those script to run continuously in the background, just run and quit.
