Ubuntu :: Want Upstream Lucid Kernel Update
May 30, 2010I am looking for an upstream kernel in hope that a few bugs are ironed out in my Lucid Kubuntu install. I tried about 2 weeks ago to get a precompiled kerel from the upstream kernel PPA [URL] but the problem is that it was built with gcc 4.2 and lucid comes with gcc 4.4 a little bit sub-moronic considering that Lucid won't accept modules built with a different compiler. I am also a little sub-moronic as I don't know how to tell if todays kernel is still being built with the 4.2 compiler, I downloaded the build.log file but I can't find any references to gcc 4.2 but as I said when I installed and tried build my Nvidia modules - no dice.
It says it needs either a kernel built with gcc 4.4 or something else. I would rebuild from scratch but I only have 1mb left for the next 10 days then my isp charges me 10c per meg, so I don't want to download the 400mb for the ncurses etc etc (thats the size it told me from aptitude to get just the additional packages and then i would need the kernel source...) They are still using gcc 4.2, and why? Where there is an official prebuilt kernel 64bit built with gcc 4.4???? or is this just another great bug that I must put up with.
Ubuntu Installation :: 10.04 Lucid Update Manager Fails To Update - Now 64 Days Out Of Date?
Jul 4, 2010I am trying to update using Update Manager and I get this message: Failed to fetch "Failed to fetch [URL]..404 Not Found" My system is 64 days out of date now.
I have looked elsewhere for an answer and some others have had similar problems, but I have not found a reason for it happening, nor an answer. I wonder if anyone can help me please. I have been using Ubuntu for several months, can use the Terminal if I have the right commands to issue, but beyond that have limited knowledge of the system.
Ubuntu Installation :: Kernel Update On 9.04 To Kernel 2.6.28.18 No Nvidia?
Feb 5, 20109.04 this morning updated my kernel to I believe it is 2.6.28.18 and upon the reboot I had no desktop. It booted wanting to go into low graphics.
So I drop to shell and stop the gdm and try to run the latest nvidia run file I have and it hangs saying I have a x server running.
Otherwise I am needing assistance with getting my desktop back! I can boot into an older kernel and if need be I would like to roll back that latest update this morning, but once again I am forgetting the command line for that.

Ubuntu Installation :: Lucid Kernel Upgrade To Ppa. 2.6.37-12?
Jan 22, 2011I wonder if others have upgraded their Lucid kernel using the deb [URL]..repository. I have been using the repository for some time now without any apparent problems, and have gone from 2.6.36-1, through 2.6.37-10, and am now on 2.6.37-12.
All of these seem to work with no problems at all, but I am just wondering if other users can also report success, or if there are any trip-ups that might occur. I still keep updating the "standard" kernel from the main repos, ie 2.6.32-27, so I have that as a backup, but I'm just very curious about other people's findings.
Ubuntu Installation :: How To Upgrade Kernel To 2.6.35 On Lucid
Mar 5, 2011I read recently about security flaws in the ubuntu kernel, and when I checked my kernel, it is 2.6.32-29-generic. I looked in synaptic, and I have the linux-generic meta-package - which should ensure upgrade to the latest kernel, and yet this is not being updated when I run update manager. There is a linux-image-2.6.35-25-generic, but the advice is not to install this directly (to avoid breaking dependencies, etc.), but to install the meta-package instead. Yet, the meta-package doesn't seem to be doing what is should do.

My root partition is on sda3 and I mount the following:/usr -> /dev/sdb1/var ->/dev/sdb2/home -> /dev/sdb3(sdb isn't really a SATA disk but a PATA).When I boot with the new kernel 2.6.32-22 mountall stops with error messages that /dev/sdb2 and /dev/sdb1 are not ext2 file systems(this message comes from fsck.ext4??-It's using a ext4 program to check for ext2??)and cannot be mounted.Of cource those are normal ext4 filesystems which are being mounted without any problems with the last karmic kernel 2.6.31-21 which is what I am using)

May 13, 2010When I click on "update" after running a series of updates, I get an error message that says:
"Failed to fetch [URL] 404 Not Found [IP: 91.189.88.45 80]. Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead."
Yet if I go the address in Firefox, one step at a time from [URL] and continue one step at a time, there is indeed a Packages.gz that I can download, so what is wrong? I do not see that repository listed in sources.list or in the update manager.
Ubuntu Installation :: Lucid & 2.6.36-1 Kernel: Random Freeze After Boot
Oct 26, 2010I am using Ubuntu Lucid Lynx 10.04 (64 bits) in my Asus U30JC laptop (Core i3 M350, intel 4500MHD + nvidia 310M with nvidia Optimus, 4GB RAM). I am content with Lucid and I don't want to upgrade to 10.10 for now. However I read that the new 2.6.36 kernel has some good improvements, such as improving system interactivity while intensive I/O (such as copying large files), and improved energy management for i3/i5 processors (which I hope translates into more battery time, which is a problem of Ubuntu vs Win7 in my laptop).
I discovered I had 2 options: compile the kernel myself, or use the Ubuntu Kernel PPA (maintained by the Ubuntu Kernel Team). I decided to use the PPA, so I added it to my software sources and installed the generic"linux-lts-backport-natty" kernel (2.6.36-1).
Package installation went fine, and after reboot, I could log in to the desktop no problem. Everything seemed fine, but after a few minutes, the system freezes completely: mouse did not move, none of the indicators moved, even Ctrl + Alt + F1 did not work.Where is the log file where there might be a message related to the freeze? Do you think that the kernel developers would try to fix a bug that probably only affects people running the 2.6.36-1 kernel on a distribution that was not built around it?

Ubuntu Installation :: VirtualBox - Kernel Driver Not Installed After Upgrade To Lucid?

Ubuntu Installation :: Wireless Does Not Autostart In NetworkManager (Lucid) After Kernel Upgrade
Jun 18, 2010Recently, I installed a fresh 64bit Lucid Lynx on my Lenovo B450 laptop (previously on Mint8 64bit, based on Karmic). It's been really nice and speedy except for one thing - USB transfers to thumb drives and external hard drives were really slow (just like in the older Ubuntu releases). I had found some forum discussions on a fix to this by way of a kernel upgrade so I decided to go for it.
Went ahead and downloaded the kernel DEBs from [URL] and installed them. Voila! USB speed issue was fixed! Everything else seemed to work fine, except for some minor troubles with burning CDs and DVDs (I think I need to upgrade the drive's firmware - pretty bad situation as the update only runs on Windows).
However, the one 'bug' or 'annoyance' I noticed straight away was that my wireless wouldn't autostart after booting into the OS with the new 2.6.34-020634-generic (x86_64) kernel. I'd have to right-click on the NetworkManager icon on the notification tray and left-click '[ ] Enable Wireless' to flag the checkbox and my wireless would come right up and work ok (WPA2 at home, WEP at the office). Not a major problem, but this has been pretty irritating to say the least.
Ubuntu Installation :: Can't Boot Default Kernel After Upgrading From 9.xx To 10.04 Lucid Lynx
Jul 21, 2010after upgrading to lucid lynx ubuntu doesn't boot with the new kernels 2.6.32-22-generic and 2.6.32-23-generic (also in recovery mode). But it's does boot with the previous 2.6.31-21-generic kernel. At the time i was hoping to wait it out, but a new kernel has come and the problem persisted. I've been trying to find a solution for this but somehow, amid lots of failed boot blank black screen threads, i didn't relate to any solution. The boot seems to go well until a pixelated logo appears (before the login screen), then goes to a blank black screen and there it stays stuck with no remedy. Looking into dmesg logs - albeit some differences between 2.6.31-21 and the newer 2.6.32-23 - the failed boot seems proper in both logs. In Xorg logs the differences are bigger but i cannot pinpoint a source for this problem.

Jul 30, 2010When Lucid released, I upgrade the Karmic in my Thinkpad R61 using
Code:
One things that remains until today is that when I'm using latest kernel (right now 2.6.32-24), the compiz run very slow, make the whole desktop unusable. When compiz is killed and using metacity, the desktop is running in normal speed.
Fortunately I still had the Karmic kernel (2.6.31-20) and booting using this kernel, everything run normally.
I just wonder what cause the latest kernel make compiz become slow. Is there any leftover application that I had to uninstall (maybe it's like pulseaudio's problem above), or any missing library/application that I need to install?

View 2 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Installation :: Restricted Modules Not Updating With Latest Kernel Updates Lucid 10.04
May 8, 2010I have noticed in the recent updates there is a Kernel update 2.6.32-22 but there is no restricted modules included. On my Desktop I have a Nvidia card which I installed the driver using the Hardware Drivers Application. As far as I know these Drivers are ether reinstalled or updated whenever there is a kernel update.
I also have a Laptop with a ATI Radeon card which I did run the updates and ended up (after the reboot) in low graphics mode, after a bit of work I was able to reinstall the drivers and get my desktop back so that's ok now.
I had this problem a few years ago with an old version of Ubuntu, kernel updates but no restricted drivers. The drivers turned up the next day and all was fine. I was just wandering if this is a known issue with Lucid or if anyone else has had this problem, It's been a couple of days since I noticed the Kernel update but still Restricted Modules. Oh I'm using Ubuntu Lucid 10.04
Ubuntu Installation :: Firefox Wants To Download Php Files After Update To Lucid Server
May 7, 2010I updated from karmic to lucid server edition and now firefox wants to download some php files. index.php which is in the same directory is apparently correctly parsed.
Google chrome tells me that the site may be temporarily down and Opera informs me that the connection has been closed by the remote server.
Under karmic I had a standard lamp server installed and everything worked fine.
This is the first time I post in a forum and I hope this is fine here.
I just moved the scripts from the server to a local machine which I updated a couple of weeks ago to lucid.
Ubuntu Installation :: Locked /home Folder After Failed Update To Lucid?
May 10, 2010After a powerdown during my upgrade of Ubuntu 9.10 to Ubuntu 10.04 that rendered my operating system useless I can get to my /home folder. The /home folder is locked and can not be copied or read. This means I can't reinstall my stuff and keep my files. The rest of my data (except for the /root folder) seams to be unlocked. How can I get to my /home folder? Does anyone know how to unlock it?

May 28, 2010When I run update manager, it gives me an error message saying:
Code:
This can be caused by:
* A previous update which didn't complete
* Problems with some of the installed software
* Unofficial software packages not provided by Ubuntu
* Normal changes of a pre-release version of Ubuntu
if I click partial upgrade, it looks like it did during the upgrade, then says:
Code:
There are no upgrades available for your system. The upgrade will now be canceled.
if I click close from the first "not all updates can be installed" dialog, it says:
Code:
It is impossible to install or remove any software. Please use the package manager "Synaptic" or run "sudo apt-get install -f" in a terminal to fix this issue at first.
running the suggested line gives the following output:

In Synaptic, fixing broken packages does nothing. Mark All Updates > Apply seems to work, but I'd still like to figure out why Update Manager does not?
Ubuntu Installation :: Package Manager Won't Update Source List Pmcenery-ppa-lucid?
May 4, 2011I recently got an iPhone 3g and have been trying to upload music onto my device with Rhythmbox because my computer exclusively runs Ubuntu (10.04 LTS, Lucid Lynx). Rhythmbox would show files that were dragged and dropped as being on the iPhone, and they appeared in the iPhone's folders, but they weren't recognized in the iPod player. I followed a variety of forum threads to try to fix the problem, but ended up creating a whole new set of problems with my package manager.
I get this error message before package manager opens: E: Type 'n' is not known on line 2 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pmcenery-ppa-lucid.list E: The list of sources could not be read. Go to the repository dialog to correct the problem. E: _cache->open() failed, please report.
And this message after I close the first error message window and the package manager opens: An unresolvable problem occurred while initializing the package information. report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the following error message:
'E:Type 'n' is not known on line 2 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pmcenery-ppa-lucid.list, E:The list of sources could not be read.' Does anyone have any recommendations on how to fix this? If it isn't already apparent, I am very inexperienced working with ubuntu, so the more detailed the response, the better.
