I recently got a eSata docking station for hard drives and after deciding to make those volumes encrypted LVM's, I created my first logical volume. After setting it up in yast2 and rebooting I received a prompt for the lvm password, gave it and received:
Mar 17 13:38:21 blkdragon kernel: [ 1105.172687] padlock: VIA PadLock not detected.
Mar 17 13:38:21 blkdragon kernel: [ 1105.313056] alg: No test for stdrng (krng)
Mar 17 13:38:21 blkdragon kernel: [ 1105.323189] alg: No test for stdrng (ansi_cprng)
Mar 17 13:38:22 blkdragon kernel: [ 1105.416892] padlock: VIA PadLock Hash Engine not detected.
Mar 17 13:38:22 blkdragon modprobe: FATAL: Error inserting padlock_sha (/lib/modules/2.6.31.14-0.6-desktop/kernel/drivers/crypto/padlock-sha.ko): No such device
Boot resumed and I looked for the reason for this, the padlock-sha.ko module does exist in the appropiate place and the volume was mounted in spite of the error message. Lvmdump seems to indicate that the volume is, in fact, encrypted. My thoughts at the moment are that the volume was encrypted by aes, so the padlock-sha.ko was not necessary to mount the volume. Backtracking the message log the same error happened during the creation of the volume before rebooting. The kernel version gives it away but it's a 11.2 machine.
(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 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?
I have server 10.04 running, and I modified my fstab file to automatically mount an NTFS partition on startup, but after a reboot, I see that I clearly did something wrong, as now it will not boot. The output is:
[Code]....
init: ureadahead-other main process (923) terminated with status 4 If this is an error with my changes to the fstab file, is there any way I can access is to change it? No matter what i do I can't get it to boot.
since the recent upgrade to Maverik every time I boot this error message appear on the top of the screen: "modprobe: Fatal: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.35-22-generic/modules.dep: no such file or directory" fter that plymouth starts without any graphics and the first visible object is the login interface (GDM)
Tonight I installed ubuntu 10.10 (32 bit) on an external usb harddrive with a dvd I burned and I used my older desktop. I disconnected all internal and external drives first so everything had to be put on the usb drive I selected (only option available). I used the option to load extra software, use the entire hard drive, and let the software do it's thing. I basically had no options where to put things and it didn't have much choice.
When I boot the usb drive on my laptop (win 7 64 bit) by telling the bios to boot to it first... I get an error: modprobe: FATAL Could not load /lib/modules 2.6.35-22 generic modules No such file or directory. This message appears twice and then it does boot into ubuntu and seems to work fine. I'm new to this OS so that is an uneducated guess but the things I have done seem to be working. So exactly what is this error referring too? Is there a way to fix the problem or do I just ignore it.
When I deleted uninstalling and installing some packages in Yast2 I got this output:
Deleting mc Additional rpm output: rpmdb: PANIC: Invalid argument rpmdb: PANIC: fatal region error detected; run recovery error: db4 error(-30977) from dbcursor->c_put: DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error, run database recovery error: error(-30977) storing record "4.0-1" into Requireversion rpmdb: PANIC: fatal region error detected; run recovery error: db4 error(-30977) from dbcursor->c_get: DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error, run database recovery error: error(-30977) setting "3.0.4-1" records from Requireversion index rpmdb: PANIC: fatal region error detected; run recovery error: db4 error(-30977) from dbcursor->c_get: DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error, run database recovery error: error(-30977) setting "" records from Requireversion index and on and on for 3 pages for every package.
Since yesterday my computer behaves really strange. I fear it's a hardware issue. At most I did some minor updates, but no big software or OS change.
When I turn it on it goes immediately to [url]
I guess it reads
Code: Chasis intruded Fatal Error... System Halted.
So this happens before the boot manager... When I press the reboot button it goes to the boot manager and works seemingly fine - all I noticed that it doesn't remember the time, or better remembered the time form the last usage but doesn't count it forward. While using the time seems to pass in a normal speed.
What could this be? Some chip on the mainboard broken? Some BIOS virus (does something like that exist?) Or maybe just a cable which got lose?
I don't know which other informations could be helpful. I built it myself some years ago and the parts are pretty random (back then I didn't even know about linux compatibility nor used it at all). I have a dual boot with openSUSE 11.2 and windows xp, but the network card is deactived in xp for a year at least already.
I have just upgraded from 11.1 to 11.4. When I boot up, I get a command line, but when I do 'startx', I get 'Fatal server error: no screens found'. I have been looking for a solution and tried 'Xorg -configure' but this gives:
Code: Failed to load /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/vboxvideo_drv.so: undefined symbol: resVgaShared
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.
while booting with bootsplash turned off there's a message "FATAL: Module ata_piix not found FATAL: Error running install command for ata_piix" .Though everything works fine i'd like to know what does this message mean and is there a way to disable loading of ata_piix whatever it means.
I need to access /etc/modprobe.d on an encrypted LVM LUKS partition. I m not sure how to go about it though. Mount usually handles my mounting needs, do I need to decrypt the physical volume first? LIst of commands need would make my day.
I was trying to compile and insert a module. The module compiles fine and creates tool.ko file(am compiling it from Desktop). Next when I try to use "insmod tool.ko" , it gives em this error: insmod: error inserting 'tool.ko': -1 Operation not permitted.I tried to use modprobe instead , thinking it might install the dependencies(if any) by itself: "modprobe -v tool.ko" but it gives me this error FATAL: Module tool.ko not found
I went over some linux forum posts and tried to resolve it but no use.I copied all the files from Desktop to the /lib/modules/2.6.34.7-0.7-Desktop/build folder and then ran the commands but still face the same problem. Used this "/sbin/depmod -a " thinking it might update the modeprob.conf file, but no use !
I just installed Debian Testing on an encrypted partition (using the encryption feature in the installer). Problem is when I boot I enter the passphrase and then Debian starts to load a bit and then it stops and won't move again. During a normal boot the boot stops after : EDAC sbridge : Couldn't find mci handler Then do a recovery mode boot from grub loader so more information is displayed during the boot time and it stops after : [12.513770] fb: switching to nouveaufb from simple it stops there I can't type anything, I can reboot the computer with ctrl+alt+del tho
I was booting just fine in a previous installation on a MBR-partitioned disk (now it's GPT-partitioned). I have to add that during installation I added a second encrypted volume on a HDD (while / is on a SSD) that mounts to /data. When few days ago I installed it on the MBR-partitioned disk it asked me for the /data passphrase pretty fast, now it just seems to boot and asks me only one passphrase until it freezes.
I'm trying opensuse 11.2 KDE out again after a bad experience last year. I'm installing it over Fedora 12 and when I try to install I get this error: Failure occured during following action: Deleting logical volume /dev/VolGroup/lv swap system error 4015 What does this mean? I've had other problems with with distro in the past but never this one. what is needed to enable the installer to install?
I created a encrypted volume on top of software raid1. These are my steps:
1. Create logical partition on sda
2. Create logical partition on sdb (same size)
3. Change type to partition to 'fd' for both partitions
4. Check that the both partitions are same size and type fdisk -l /dev/sda && fdisk -l /dev/sdb
5. partprobe
6. Make sure there are no remains from previous RAID installations on /dev/sdb by running: mdadm --zero-superblock /dev/sda6 mdadm --zero-superblock /dev/sdb6
14. Mount the encrypted volume: mount -O noatime /dev/mapper/ftdata /ftdata
It mounts successfully this first time. When I cd /ftdata, I can see the lost+found dir
Now, I unmount the volume cd ~
Code: umount /ftdata cryptsetup remove ftdata
And now, if I try to setup my encrypted volume like this:
Code: [root@localhost ~]# cryptsetup create ftdata /dev/md4 Enter passphrase: mount -O noatime /dev/mapper/ftdata /ftdata I get this error: mount: you must specify the filesystem type

While attempting to install CentOS 5.4 x86_64 from DVD (downloaded torrent), I encountered a fatal error that aborted the install and dumped a bunch of log files. I attempted this a couple of times resulting in the same error. I tested my hardware via CentOS 5.4 x86_64 live cd without exception. Here is my install configuration:
1)Booted to DVD 2)Skipped media test 3)English (English) 4)U.S. English
Some files are generating in my Documents folder named hs_err_pid4214.log ........ different logs files are generated.

I recently isntalled opensuse 11.3 and I was trying to get the juniper ssl vpn working. It connects and everything goes fine until it prompts me for the root password. Once I do that, it errors out saying: "Modprobe for tun module failed" or something of that nature.
I'm getting failures of ehci_hcd at random times when trying to copy files between USB2 hard disks on my new installation of OpenSUSE 11.4 on my new i7 machine. Kernel version is 2.6.37-0.5-desktop, x86_64. The error is very repeatable but happens at random times, not associated with any particular disk sector or file etc.It's becoming very annoying as it is causing files on my drives to become corrupted if they are open when the error occurs.
I have two USB2 hard drives plugged in, and I'm trying to copy files from one to the other either via terminal or nautilus. The symptom of the failure is that all USB devices on the root hub of those drives will suddenly disappear in the middle of a file transfer. This includes the KB & mouse , so I lose every USB device on the same root hub at once.
If the keyboard is on a separate root hub I can retain control of the PC. In this case, lsusb shows that the root hub to which the drives were connected has vanished - not just the drive itself. The whole root hub is gone. I have confirmed that it is NOT a problem with the drives themselves, because
(a) I have tried many different drives, of different brands, and they all do it,
(b) all my drives work flawlessly under Windows 7 and
(c) this never happened under my old OpenSUSE 11.2 on my old x86_64 core2 duo PC with the same hard drives.
They are all NTFS formatted and I use NTFS-3g to write to them. I don't have a choice about the NTFS, since they bring data from other Windows PCs. I'd much prefer to be on ext3, but what can you do. The root cause of the problem is that the ehci_hcd module is failing at a low level. It's not the NTFS-3g driver, by the looks of things. I have no idea how to fix this. I don't think it's a problem with my USB2 drives going to sleep mode because it happens in the middle of a file copy operation!
/var/log/messages output follows... /var/log/messages shows these kinds of errors at the leadup to a failure. Nothing suspicious appears until we suddenly see this:
kernel: [ 505.042722] hub 1-1:1.0: cannot reset port 3 (err = -110) ... same message repeated 4 times ... kernel: [ 509.075401] hub 1-1:1.0: Cannot enable port 3. Maybe the USB cable is bad? kernel: [ 509.083593] hub 1-1:1.0 cannot disable port 3 (err = -110)
[code].....
NTFS-3g then unmounts ALL the drives on that root hub and everything falls in a heap as all I/O operations and every device on that hub fails in sequence.

I get this when trying to launch a VB after making one with wizzard.
OS openSuse 11.1 After boot its wrote: File system is clearn. bootsplash: status on console 0 changed to on. File system seems to have fatal corruptions.

I am using openSuSE 11.2 on a VGN-AR41L. I have also erased the preinstalled Home Vista (what a pleasure). Now to my problem. My system boots correctly but if I press the <ESC> key while booting I can see the following messages:
"Doing fast boot FATAL: mbcache module not found FATAL: ahci module not found " and the boot process continues normally.
Why this happens? Does this mean that I have a problem that I haven't discovered yet? Is it something that I can ignore? I am using SUSE Linux from version SUSE Linux 8 personal and although I am not a power user I have done my two desertions on this system and I am very happy with SUSE. I have bought SUSE Linux 8 Personal and SUSE Linux 10 all the other versions until today have been downloaded.
Want to make a 1gb volume on dev/sdb usb memory stick. Wrote Code: Select allsudo tcplay --create --device=/dev/sdb --pbkdf-prf=SHA512 --cipher=TWOFISH-256-XTS,AES-256-XTS
Command has to be sudo? Got Code: Select allPassphrase: Repeat passphrase: Summary of actions: - Completely erase *EVERYTHING* on /dev/sdb - Create volume on /dev/sdb
Are you sure you want to proceed? (y/n)
I do not want the usb stick to be erased. What do I do, to not erase the usb stick? If you create a volume on the system hdd, it should not erase the system.
