How much time does it take (typically) for Canonical to release an updated version of the Ubuntu kernel? What I mean is that the 2.6.34 kernel is already out (on kernel.org), but we're still on 2.6.32.

I've tried to update my Lineage2 client from official server but the update crash, tried to open the web page it didn't open. Also tried to open microsoft web it didn't open. When i try to open the same pages on PC with F10 they open with no problem.

Yesterday, Linux Kernel was updated to version 2.6.31.14.The question is: will it be somewhere in Debian repos?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. I'd like to use the latest kernel from repositories (at the present moment it's 2.6.35-23), that's why I've installed backports.
These are packages:linux-image-generic-lts-backport-maverick linux-headers-generic-lts-backport-maverick
But DKMS failed to build modules for fglrx: I think it's caused by old version of fglrx.
how to update from the 2nd beta of 10.4 to the official release? the update manager shows updates, but no kernel updates or anything. i've ran the update-manager -d but only see few updates, nothing like upgrading.

1.In the last line of the debian kernel handbook 4.2.2 Applying patches
It is possible to apply extra patches to the source before starting the build. First, you should apply the existing patches by running:
You will then find the patched source in the subdirectories debian/build/source_arch_none (default) and debian/build/source_arch_featureset (featuresets added).
You should apply the extra patches in the appropriate subdirectory. where can I find the "extra patchies" and how to do?
2.Even though More than 8 hours have passed, 4.2.3 Building many packages

View 2 Replies View RelatedAt the moment I am using kernel 2.6.31-14-generic. I'm not one of those people who needs to have the latest and greatest kernel to be happy, I just rely on the update manager. I swore that I saw an update for a new kernel, but my kernel version hasn't changed. I'm just curious if there was a new kernel that was released or if that was just an update to the kernel listed above.
View 2 Replies View Related9.04 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.
Ran the updater, went to boot to Win7 to use Photoshop and realized that the grub menu was gone. Ubuntu boots by default now. I tried running "sudo update-grub" at a virtual terminal and while it listed the various linux kernels ok, it then got caught in a loop spitting out some crazy looking errors. I rebooted and Ubuntu came up fine. I tried running "sudo update-grub" again from the gnome terminal and it hangs the whole computer for a few minutes and finally gives me this:

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have the following strange thing with a RHEL4 installation. Since last week, the system did a reboot and now something is really fucked up. During boot we get the following messages (don't care about 'strange' typo's, my colleague typed it 'blind' from the screen)
Code:
The strange thing is that we never see a 'could not mount blabla' or similar messages. First we thought it was a failing kernel update by plesk, but even after manually updating the kernel with RHN RPM's, still the same message. Booting with rescue mode and then chroot the system works. After that we even can start things like plesk and so on.
We double checked things with another RHEL4 install, and at least two things were odd:
1: the working machine has /dev/dm-0 and /dev/dm-1, the broken one doesn't
2: some files on /dev didn't have group root, but 252
We tried to recreate the /dev/dm-X nodes with [vgmknodes -v], output:
Code:
A fdisk /dev/sda shows: /dev/sda2 XX XXX XXXXX Linux LVM (I removed the numbers because this line is from another machine, but rest was identical)
We have a copy of the boot partition so if one need more info please let me know.

How to fix This? i haven't messed with Ubuntu much...Why am i getting an error about a kernel update?
A recent kernel update seems to have misplaced the Kernel Headers. VMWare needs these headers and cannot find them. Attempting to run VMWARE gets the message: Kernel headers for version 2.6.31.12-0.2-desktop were not found.

From F12 to F13. Is there anything I should remove before updating? I have few programs isntalled from source/binary installers in /usr for example. Would it cause problems?
And is there any chance to be able to switch from a 32 bit kernel to 64 bit kernel during the update? The hardware is capable of this.
I received an update to my kernel through the update manager (updated from ****.32.14 to ****.32.19, or something like that) but grub still shows the old kernel and not the updated one. Was this not a full kernel update and only a patch or do I have to do something to use the new kernel? I'm new bear with me if this doesn't make any sense.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI am using Ubuntu 9.10. I use a Huawei EC1260 modem, which fails to work (but can be made to work by typing some commands). The current version of kernel on 9.10 is 2.6.31-14-generic. An upgrade to 2.6.31-22-generic worsened the matter and even broke the workarounds that I used for the modem.
I want to upgrade to the kernel to that of 10.04 to resolve this (I will not upgrade to Lucid as there the experience is painful - it hangs most of the time and I do not have time to fix things). Or, maybe, a downgrade to 2.6.28-11 (the kernel of Jaunty)?
How will I do this? Is there any adverse effect that may occur due to the update?
I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 with 2.6.32-25-generic-pae (32 bits with 4 Gigs).
System is performing well, except that I can't make work a USB bluetooth dongle (maybe incompatible) and have some issues with the Touchpad.
I have an ASUS UL30-A with an Elantech Touchpad that is being detected as a PS/2 mouse. The issue with it is that Synaptic doesn't recognize it, so I can't disable it except with sudo modprobe -r psmouse.
This issue is already reported and fixed with kernel 2.6.34-rc7 or later.
How can I, in a easy way (a repo?), update the kernel of 10.04 Remember that I'm using 10.04 with PAE?
I did some Google first as usual, but all I found was some .debs from unknown sources and without PAE.
What should I do?
10.10 is about to being released and (I think) it has this newer kernel. Anyways, I prefer to stick to 10.04 LTS, so IDK yet how Ubuntu releases new kernels versions on "old" Ubuntu releases. At least this kind of 'major' updates.
Is there any official/beta repository to upgrade the Kernel of Lucid that I'm missing?
I'm seeing all these people have 2.6.35-25 now. I still have 2.6.35-24. I don't see it in synaptic, and I tried to do a dist-upgrade in apt-get, but nothing.
I'm really eager to try the latest kernel, since there is a glitch with touch-screen calibration on rotation in this one, and I heard it was supposed to be fixed.
How does everyone have 2.6.35-25 and I don't?
I juset reinstalled my ubuntu and i can't update to the latest kernel. I'm stuck at 2.6.31-15. Also my grub is v1.94 Beta4 and can't upgrade it to grub2.

View 1 Replies View RelatedProbably a simple question, but i was wondering why is there a new kernel available (2.6.34) which is not proposed in apt-get update? Now I've got to download .deb files and upgrade manually. I would like to be able to install unstable / testing releases for packages. I have checked everything in software sources, but I still don't get the newest kernel proposed. Another question: what are "backports"?

This is old P4 laptop, Intel845G graphics (which I know is very troublesome).However, it works fine with the 2.6.35.22, but the update to 2.6.35.23 kills X during the boot process. Everything else works fine.Anyone else experiencing any difficulty with X and this kernel update?
View 3 Replies View RelatedIs anyone else having problems with the new 2.6.32-26 kernel and Lucid LTS? I first installed it several days ago on a test system and it immediately killed VirtualBox, since the header files necessary to rebuild the vbox modules were not included in the update. I installed the header files via Synaptic and everything then worked properly, so this morning I allowed my production system to install the updates.
That was a mistake. Immediately upon the required reboot, my GUI failed to appear. Eventually I got a CLI login on TTY1, and attempted to use "startx" to launch the GUI. It failed with a message that the nvidia driver could not be found.
Rebooting and choosing the older kernel version cured all the problems, but for now the security update provided by the new kernel is unavailable to me. This is NOT the reliability I have come to expect from Ubuntu's long term support and update notifications!
