Ubuntu :: Access The Tty's - When Hit Ctrl + Alt + F1 Get A Screen That Says - FATAL: Error Inserting Uvesafb
Jul 20, 2010
I am running ubuntu 10.04 I am trying to access the tty's
When I hit Ctrl + Alt + F1 I get a screen that says: FATAL: Error inserting uvesafb (/lib/modules/2.6.32-23-generic/kernel/drivers/video/uvesafb.ko): unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)
Ctrl + Alt + F2-F6 all I get is a flashing cursor that won't do anything
I updated the latest kernel and other new maintenance tonight and started getting this error at boot...doesn't appear to be hindering anything. My encrypted partitions (luks, ext4) still open and are accessible.
modprobe: FATAL: Error inserting padlock_sha (/lib/modules/2.6.29.5-191.fc11.i586/kernel/drivers/crypto/padlock-sha.ko): No such device
See similar errors reported on ubuntu forums... with various recommended workarounds... update/add an alias, blacklist a module, fresh install
I took some pictures tonight and plugged in my flash card reader (via usb) as always. Only this time, the device isn't assigned a proper location (like "sdc3").
A little research later and I *think* I need the module "usb-storage", which I can't get to load. It's been a *long* time since I had to mess with modules and I'd like some fresh eyes on what the problem might be.
This is my lsmod output:
Code:
I also ran modprobe with -n -v:
Code:
I have run depmod -a and tried the modprobe again...
Code:
If I drill down to the /lib/modules/<kernel -r>/drivers/usb/storage/ where the .ko file is and say:
Code:
So.... since I haven't changed anything that I can think of since the last time I took pictures...what happened? How do I fix this?
So I am new to ubuntu and am trying to work with "iptables". I have ubuntu version 10.04, in the terminal I try to create a new iptable by writing: iptables -N chain but the response is: FATAL: Error inserting ip_tables......... also it says "you must be root", what does root mean?
(Opensuse 11.4, nvidia, core2) PROBLEM: cpu goes into C3 powersaving state even on full load (even when disabled from bios) (acpi=off prevents this). opensuse 11.4 kernel ignores boot option processor.max_cstate=2 (option has no effect). cpufreq util should be able to change governor policy to performance, however acpi-cpufreq driver doesn't load: modprobe acpi-cpufreq -> FATAL: error inserting acpi_cpufreq (/lib.../acpi-cpufreq.ko): No such device
I have a problem with loading the powersaving kernel module p4-clockmod.ko. When I try inserting the module (via modprobe or insmod) I get FATAL: Error inserting p4_clockmod (/lib/modules/2.6.31.8-mediaserver/extra/p4-clockmod.ko): Invalid module format The module has been compiled together with the kernel. Other modules load with no problem at all. I've tried recompiling the kernel (after re-installing the sources, make xconfig from scratch) - no avail. There's only one kernel source package installed. Searching the forum and google didn't yield a helping answer.
I recently started having this odd behaviour while using and loading cpufrequtils on boot, I don't know if it is happening to someone else.During boot I'm getting( when /etc/init.d/cpufrequtils invokes /etc/init.d/loadcpufreq to load the proper module):
Loading cpufreq kernel modules...FATAL: Error inserting speedstep_centrino (/lib/modules/3.0.0-1-amd64/kernel/drivers/cpufreq/speedstep-centrino.ko): No such device FATAL: Error inserting pcc_cpufreq (/lib/modules/3.0.0-1-amd64/kernel/drivers/cpufreq/pcc-cpufreq.ko): No such device
# xorg.conf (X.Org X Window System server configuration file) # # This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool, using # values from the debconf database.
[code]...
And after that my X is not working. And when i try sudo modprobe nvidia I get this:
FATAL: Error inserting nvidia (/lib/modules/2.6.26-2-686/nvidia/nvidia.ko): No such device
I want to turn an old (2004) compaq computer into a webserver using debian. 2.8ghz celeron, 756mb ram, 80gb IDE HD.I installed debian through the first DVD, without laptop and desktop environments, and did a guided partition.This is the second time this problem has occurred, at first i thought i would try re-installing, but no avail.
As soon as i turn the computer on, i get a grub loader screen with two options, Debian or single user debian. Both choices present same issue. Once i select either one, it seems to load then says "fatal: error inserting fan: no such device." Continues to load, and then "fatal: error inserting thermal, unknown symbol in module"Continues to load then "volume group ***** not found, volume group ***** not found" "enter pass phrase to unlock disk" I enter the pass phrase. "Successful" then a bunch of stuff loads and hangs at "end trace de8............" And it won't let me type anything or do anything except hit the power button.
I cannot access xterm or an tty using ctrl alt fn getting just a blank screen. Even in booting to repair mode or logging into Xterm, I get the same blank screen.
Lucid with nVidia X at 1900 x 1200 - Had this setup for the last year so Karmic and Jaunty had no issues with xterm. Needing to resolve this to be able to load nVidia drivers.
when i start uubuntu it automatically goes to tty with out letting me login. then when i press startx it says:
NVIDIA: failed to initialize the nvidia graphics device pci:0:13:0 nvidia: please check your systems kernal log for additional erroe nvidia: messages and refer to chapter 8 nvidia: failed to initialize the nvidia graphics device! nvidia: screen found, but none have a usable configuration fatal screen error: no screen found
right before this i had activated a nvidia graphics device
anyone has a clue why 'ctrl+a, k' nor 'ctrl+a, :kill' doesn't work for killing one of screen windows? Other screen's commands invoked with 'ctrl+a'seem to work.
I have 3 layouts: USA, Russian and Hebrew. In Hebrew the W key is mapped to apostrophe, so Ctrl+W in Hebrew layout doesn't close tabs in Firefox. There is no workaround for it as I see by now, so I am trying to get it work this way:I want to map Ctrl+W in Hebrew layout(which is actually a Ctrl+') to be a Ctrl+w. Here is what I got from xmodmap:Code:$ xmodmap -pke | grep 25keycode 25 = w W Cyrillic_tse Cyrillic_TSE apostrophe WAs you can see, there are pairs for each layout, each pair tells what happens without and with the Shift key pressed.
I am doing a project on rdesktop. My aim is to setup a write/copy protected session. I have made rdesktop connection between two Linux machines using Xrdp.Next I want to disable the ctrl+x,ctrl+v keys and the cut and copy option in mouse right click at client side
I am running Red Hat with 2.6.18-194.8.1.el5PAE kernel version. I am trying to run encryptfs to encrypt a partition on my hard drive. One of the kernel modules necessary is the md5.ko. I noticed it wasn't loaded in when doing an lsmod. I tried running modprobe md5 and it fails to load:

im trying to install the RTL8192CU_linux_v3.0.2164.20110715 drivers so my new wireless adapter works, but I have hit a wall when trying to insert the drivers after makeing them its telling me

I have Red Hat 5.4, and I'm trying to log in using tty1 by pressing Ctrl-Shift-F1. I get to the text login screen, my banner displays, but when I try to log in as root, the banner just displays again and it asks me to log in.
It does not say that my password is incorrect, just asks me log in as if the previous exchange never happened. I have added tty1 to /etc/securetty, and all the other tty's and vc/1, vc/2, etc...in an attempt to get something to work. I recently started using PAM for password authentication, and the pam_securetty.so line is set correctly in /etc/pam.d/login. Any idea why I can't log in? Did I miss something I have to add?
i installed SLES 11 sp1 as guest on openSUSE 11.3 host, then change the adapter network from 'NAT' to 'Bridged Adapter', but when i hit start i got this error message: Failed to open a session for the virtual machine sles. Failed to open/create the internal network 'HostInterfaceNetworking-wlan0' (VERR_SUPDRV_COMPONENT_NOT_FOUND). Failed to attach the network LUN (VERR_SUPDRV_COMPONENT_NOT_FOUND). One of the kernel modules was not successfully loaded. Make sure that no kernel modules from an older version of VirtualBox exist. Then try to recompile and reload the kernel modules by executing '/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup' as root (VERR_SUPDRV_COMPONENT_NOT_FOUND). but when run: sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup
I have some problems with CentOS 5.4 and standard kernel 2.6.32.7, which I need for realtime extensions.With the solution in this thread: [URL] I could boot the new standard kernel , There are still two error messages during the boot process:
I'm trying to get a framebuffer console with acceptable scrolling speed on Dell XPS M1530. It has GeForce 8600M GT card with maximum resolution supported by bios 1920x1200
I recently installed Maverick 64-bit on a new HP 8740w (NVidia Quadro FX 2800M video). When I try to open a console using CTRL-ALT-F1, I get a blank screen (no cursor). The console is running (I can log-in blind), but no video. I have tried several solutions (modifying the GRUB video mode, and the solution in this thread. Nothing changed. I am using NVidia driver v173. WHen I revert to "current" I get a console login, but gdm won't start.
Any suggestions to get both gdm and console at the same time? I'm trying to configure the system so I can use multi-monitor in a docking station, so I'd like to know I can get to a visible console before I try that. I should mention that I was able to see the console just after installing 10.10, but in the days since, something (update?) changed to cause it to go blank. I had to make a few changes to get ACPI to behave on this system. I'm not sure when the console went dark.
