Ubuntu :: Using Tuxonice Patched Kernel
Dec 27, 2010
My laptop was not hibernating using default kernle and uswsusp.So I decided to try tuxonice from ubuntu ppa. Now hibernation and suspend is working beautifully on my laptop. But I have few doubts in my mind, since now I am using patched kernel from ppa will it affect the overall stability of system ? What if there is any kernel related update from ubuntu will I receive that update ? What if new ubuntu version is release, can I upgrade without breaking my whole system ?

if I have a kernel that does not automatically update because I installed it from a deb, will I be missing out on important security updates or the like? I installed the 2.6.34 kernel because I wanted trim support, but am very concerned that I will miss something important.

it's possible to compile the 2.6.37 kernel patched with the autogroup patch on a Slackware 13.1 system running 2.6.33.4-smp with 2.6.33.4 headers? I just compiled and installed the 2.6.37-autogroup kernel from AUR on my ARCH setup and I like it especially when using firefox with lots of tabs open and other background apps also running. I did notice a speed and smothness difference in my ARCH testing setup with this kernel patch and I can get same results in 13.1??

I've been following the instructions at URL... to download TuxOnIce.However, I'm having some difficulties completing them. It says "Add the following PPA to your sources list".I don't know exactly what this means, but I guessed it meant go to Ubuntu Software Center, go to edit -> Software Sources, and add those two lines to the Other Software tab.My next issue was the immediately next instructions. I tried typing in "gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com -recv DEC8FAAC" in terminal, but that just gives me the message "gpg: can't open `DEC8FAAC'".

I need to find Tuxonice, because none of the other hibernation programs works well. Why Tuxonice is available in both Lenny and Sid, but not in Squeeze?

I am having trouble with a rather peculiar timeout during resume from suspension and I was wondering if any of you have encountered the error or might have some leads as to what causes the problem.I am using Gentoo Linux with TuxOnIce patched kernel. While both hibernation and suspension works as advertised, there is a rather irritating timeout while trying to resume from suspension. Each and every time it takes about 60s for notebook to resume back to X session again, no matter what the conditions are (i.e. USB deviced plugged in, etc.)

I just installed starcraft 2 using playonlinux and wine. I was able to launch it once it finished the updates. I proceeded to amp up the graphics to ultra on everything. I did that then it crashed. i now can not seem to open it. Not through wine or on the desktop.

I have scoured the web for every bit of information I can find regarding installing the ieee80211 patched driver for the realtek rtl8187, to use an Alfa AWUS036H for packet injection. Error after error after error, I have had no success, and all I can find is other people with the same setup having the same problems.
Assume I have installed Ubuntu 10.10 straight out the box, so no updates have yet been made. Is someone in the know willing to post some step by steps on how to download, install and patch the necessary driver and install necessary software, including precise info on how to blacklist or remove mac80211 version rtl8187.ko in order to replace it with the patched ieee80211 version?
I know there's a tutorial on here somewhere for installing rtl8187 in an older version of Ubuntu, and in that thread, the people with Ubuntu 10.10 all seem to be having the same problems.

I've been trying to update my base RHEL 5.4 to a 5.4 + Security fixes. Is this possible or am I left to only upgrade from 5.4 up to the latest RHEL version?
Like, is there a way to update the packages in 5.4 (sshd, kernel, librairies...)but without upgrading to a different release?

This may sound odd, but how does one report a patched file to a major dev team, like PHP? Sure, they have their bug report page, but the following bug hasn't even been reported. After a bit of googling, though, I found the solution.
As I learned from first hand experience, compiling php5-5.3.6, when ./configure --with-openssl, terminates like so code...
if one has openssl-1.0.0d installed. Apparently, OpenSSL dropped support for SSLv2 with said version, and php5-5.3.6 doesn't know what to do without it enabled.
Fortunately, the boys @ Debian figured it out & have patched xp_ssl.c previous to their latest php5-5.3.6-10.deb release, but how do you let the PHP devs know?

I currently have Red Hat 5.4 installed and subscribed to red hat network for alert updates.The updates will be done by our administrator but I will like to check if the admin has done so on a weekly basis. Is there a command that generates a report or allows me to check if certain updates has been patched? I understand running a yum update will list all applicable patches. Should we just simply update all or only certain applications applicable to our organization environment?

Firefox 3.5 has a critical java script vulnerability as noted in the recent news. I had to manually update to 3.5.1 using the mozilla tarball because there's still no Firefox 3.5.1 in Fedora Updates or even Fedora Updates Testing repositories. Is this normal? I didn't want to resort to using the mozilla one because now I can't use flash (my system is 64 bit and mozilla only seems to offer a 32bit tar file of Firefox) and having two Firefoxs means dealing with the ProfileManager, separate bookmarks and so on.
I'm trying to find out if I'm just looking in the wrong place, I tried the normal mirrors for "updates" for Fedora 11 and then updates-testing and also the baseurl for "updates" to get rid of the mirror update delay. None of them seem to have 3.5.1 ?

My laptop has only 2GB of RAM so I don't think I need the PAE kernel, also there are some drivers that I want to install, they were built for non-PAE kernel.
So far I read that I have to change the :
/etc/sysconfig/kernel
---------
# UPDATEDEFAULT specifies if new-kernel-pkg should make
# new kernels the default
UPDATEDEFAULT=yes

Is there a way to get the matching Linux kernel headers automatic on a regular kernel update via the Ubuntu packed manager? Every time I get a new kernel I must do an aptitude install linux-headers-`uname -r`

Over the past few days I have been trying to install an older kernel (kernel 2.6.28.1) on ubuntu 9.10 64-bit WUBI installation. I compiled, installed, and updated my grub for the kernel. When I reboot, the grub menu correctly gives me the option of booting into the older kernel but when I do so I receive the following error message:
error: you need to load the linux kernel first.
I am at a complete loss on how to fix this. I even downgraded grub but I still get the same error.

I'm running Virtualbox from the Sun website (need the USB support) and it breaks after each kernel update.The problem is that I installed a lot of Ubuntu systems for transitioning windows users with Windows in virtualbox to ease the migration but I have to rerun vboxdrv setup after each kernel patch.

At 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.

With the recent upgrade kernel, my ATI driver can no longer work. After upgrading to the new kernel, upon reboot I would get stuck at the "checking battery status" and can't boot into kubuntu.
I'm running Kubuntu 10.10 64 on intel i5 with radeon hd 4870.
So I thought I messed something up since I was fooling around with conky script the day before. I did a clean install of kubuntu 10.10 64 and reset all my settings and my files. At this point, everything works smoothly and I can reboot multiple times without a problem.
I proceeded to install the Radeon catalyst driver following the documentation, which worked perfectly for me on the previous kernel. After rebooting, I can no longer get pass the "checking battery state" black screen. I had to boot into safe book, uninstall all fglrx and also delete xorg.conf to be able to boot back in normally.

I have made a several modifications to my penstick running Xubuntu 10.10 that have greatly enhanced its performance. It took me several weeks to get to this point. I have added entries to /etc/rc.local and added kernel tweaks in /etc/grub.d/40_Custom so that my entries wont be erased. I have also added entries in my /etc/fstab. I have read this document in regards to the kernel but I am concerned about my /etc/fstab,/etc/rc.local and /etc/grub.d/40_Linux files being overwritten from updates.

I am concerned about when one of my users decides he wants to run his updates via apt-get or package managers that all of the configs that I have done will be wiped away.

9.04 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.

I installed ubuntu on my laptop recently and would like to have trim support. (Because I have a ssd drive (crucial c-300 256gb). The current kernel that I am using is the 2.6.32 (standard lucid kernel I believe). Unfortunately TRIM support is only available from 2.6.33 and up. So I thought I'd install a new kernel using this howto:

It sounds like he's making a difference between the kernel "source code" and the kernel itself(as in the downloaded file/ files) but the way he talks about both is the same.So then, if one had already "installed" the "kernel sources code," why would he need the "tarball with the newest Linux kernel?" He's already "installed" a kernel, right?

i just updated my mainboard, because of a failure in the grafic chip. Now I have a icore 7-2600K CPU with 16GB memory.The system will not boot with the latest kernel version Kernel 2.6.38.11 - Kernel 2.6.38.10 . It crashed and resets the system.
But when I am using Kernel 2.6.35.30, then it works, as you can see. As well the kubuntu 64bit CDROM does not work. Crashed as well.
