Incomplete boot with new update

I did the new update with pacman -Syu and now notice the following during the boot process, which stops cold:
scsi2 : sym-2.2.1
2:0:0:0: ABORT operation started
[some other similar lines ...]
sym0: SCSI BUS has been reset
Then the boot process stops. When I boot a different distro, and examine what happens after the first line above, I notice that my external scsi devices are then recognized instead of the other lines you see above. I have no scsi hard drives. That is, I boot from an IDE drive.
I have a disk image of my previous Arch setup, so can easily restore that in just a few minutes, and can then do a pacman -Syu with the kernel being blacklisted. But I was wondering if there's a way to make the new update work for me. I have full access to the Arch install via a different distro, so I can edit the config files there easily before booting it again.
Also, if I decide to blacklist kernel upgrades, how do I do that with Arch? Never needed to do that before.

I have restored my old image of Arch and done a pacman -Syu with the latest kernel ignored and all is well. I'll just roll my own 2.6.13 later.

    Cannot see Cookies with new update of firefox.<br />
    I recently updated firefox, but when I look on the PRIVACY window, where<br />
    websites store cookies, I am no longer able to see any cookies that<br />
    are being stored, and I am not able to delete the cookies as soon as I leave<br />
    their site, as I had been doing for a long time prior to updating.<br />
    So I am wondering where the heck are the cookies being stored now, with the<br />
    new update? I like to be able to delete their cookies immediately, and<br />
    I also wonder why firefox does not make it much easier for us to see<br />
    all the cookies and delete them with one click, instead of having to <br />
    use the &lt;&lt;TOOLS&lt;&lt;OPTIONS&lt;&lt;PRIVACY way of looking at and deleting cookies.<br />
    The option to delete the cookies when firefox closes is not as efficient<br />
    and I will get tracked until I close firefox, and I prefer to not be tracked<br />
    so I like to just delete their cookies as soon as I am no longer using their<br />
    site anymore.

My phone is dead and wouldnt power up ..have tried resetting using itunes but i doesnt detect the phone and..pressing sleep/home button doesnt do anything

    I guess that it just had a bad connecting port on the phone itself, no clue why it wouldn't work when plugged in both ways other than there is actually some differentiating between the two sides.

  • Z68A-GD65 (G3) fails to boot with new Gigabyte Radeon HD 7950 OC

    Hi,
    I have a problem with my new Gigabyte AMD Radeon HD 7950 (GV-R795WF3-3GD):
    My system fails to boot with this GPU, with the old Radeon HD 4850 everything works fine.
    Here are my system specs:
    MSI Z68A-GD65 (G3)
    CPU: Intel Core i5-2500K
    RAM: 8Gb DDR3-RAM (Corsair)
    power supply: be quiet! Pure Power L7 530W
    What I have already tried to fix the problem:
    -CMOS Reset
    -other PCI-e slot
    -other power supply (old 750W)
    Nothing worked.
    Do I need a Bios update? My current version is V23.7, but I'm not sure whether I can use the latest versions because my CPU is a SandyBridge...

    We can't help you woth your vga as it is no MSI product. You can try latest bios for your board (http://www.msi.com/product/mb/Z68A-GD65--G3-.html#/?div=BIOS) because the latest bios versions for G3 boards are  working well with Sandy and Ivy. If latest bios should not help and you like to downgrade the bios we can give you the needed files if you ask here.

  • Can't get Pc to boot with new GPU

    Hello. I have a hinkstation e20 422221G with Xeon CPU x3440 @ 2.53g running win 7 ultimate. I understand this CPU has no onboard video capabilties. I have had a quadro fx 380 card in there but wanted to upgrade, so purchased an asus r7 250x I also upgraded the PSU to 500w. When I turn the PC on, the fans come on etc but no boot. I have updated bios to version 5jkt65aus which is the latest available. I also have another issue in that windows states only 1.94gb ram is usable, when infact there is 4gb. I am running win 64x and there is no maximum memory setting. Have tried to look through BIOS to see if there was perhaps a setting where memory was being reserved for video etc, but can't find it. Any suggestions? Your help would be appreciated

    First things first, we don't support aftermarket PSUs or desktop/gaming video cards in these systems so there's no guarantees either will work.
    With that said, does your system boot whatsoever with the new PSU installed and the rest of the system as it shipped from the factory?  ie: does it boot with the new PSU and the FX380 installed?  If not then your PSU either isn't pinned correctly at the main connector or isn't supplying power to the correct locations.
    If the PSU does work and it's only the Asus R7 250X then the simple answer here is that the card is unsupported.  This is either due to the amount of power required or that the E20 doesn't have enough addressing space in the BIOS to handle a 2GB video card.  In this case, hopefully your retailer allows returns as Lenovo cannot provide a workaround for such an issue on this old of a system.
    I wish I had better news for you here but trying to turn a commercial workstation into a gaming system isn't without challenges.

  • Booting with new aluminium keyboard

    Hi,
    I got the new aluminium keyboard yesterday - seems to be fine but:
    While booting there were no keys recognized at all. Neither CMD-V for verbous booting messages nor ALT for selecting either MacOS or BootCamp/Windoze...
    Is there still a firmware update pending?
    I'm using a Intel MacMini with MacOS 10.4.10, the latest keyboard update and all other published patches and updates...
    Any hints?

    Hi Doug, Hi Paul,
    @Doug:
    It seems to me that the new keyboard is simply not recognized by the bootloader/EFI/<whatever>. The girl from AppleCare asked me to check wether booting from the installation DVD works (i.e. booting with the "c"-key pressed) - it doesn't. Booting with CMD-s into single user mode doesn't work either.
    So maybe you're right concerning the "standard feature", but if there's no keyboard connected there are no features - and "not connected" and "not recognized" seems to be the same here...
    The only other Mac I have probably access to is my old G4-Mini which I've sold to a friend of mine. Besides that there's a different bootloader for PowerPC I don't expect an older Mac to recognize this brand new keyboard better. OTOH my old keyboard (a Macally iKeySlim) still works on my Intel-Mini so I see no reason for distrust here.
    @Paul:
    Nice to know that it's not soley my problem
    If I understand you right you're saying that on your iMac the keyboard is working correctly - even during boot. Is that right? So you are able to get the boot messages on the iMac when booting with CMD-v pressed (with the new aluminum keyboard of course)?
    It would be fine to narrow down the problem a bit to be able to make a meaningful bugreport for the guys @Apple...
    Thank you both so far!

  • With new updates from Acrobat Read my computer freezes and I can not fill in forms anymore, how do I fix these problems?

    After updating Acrobat Reader my computer now freezes when I try to fill in forms using Acrobat Reader, this never happen before! Now the only way to unfreeze my computer is to turn it off and restart it, which is not how a computer is suppose to be turned off as nothing responses to get it unfrozen(ESC., Contol-Alt-Delete)! The I shows up as if I am able to fill in forms, but after trying to fill in the form numerous times various ways, it always ends up freezing my computer up! I HATE THE NEW UPDATES! Why can't I speak with a live human, through Adobe? I would not want to buy anything from any company which would not allow me support by talking to a live human over the phone, as typing messages can be misunderstood! Their is no point to have Acrobat Reader any more if it does not allow me to fill in forms! I could use the reader that came with the computer! It is sad that for myself filling forms using Acrobat Reader was nice since there are times I am unable to write anything due to tremors, unfortunately I am not alone in this type of medical problem and we the disabled the majority of us are on Social Security! Everyone know that Social Security does not give their recipients enough money to live off of! It is sad when a person is ill they lose more than their livelihood, so called friends abandon you too! So how can I fix the freezing problems and is there any Adobe that I can fill in forms which will not cost me money and or another company that may offer this free of charge?

  • MacBook Pro won't boot with new hard drive, but a different MacBook Pro will

    So here are the details. My friend and I both have 13-inch Mid 2010 MacBook Pro's. Same processor and specs since they were purchased at the same time, but originally had 250 GB hard drives. His hard drive failed and needed a new one. Put a 500 GB Seagate Momentus 5400.6 in his computer, and tried using a flash drive with "Install OS X Mavericks" on it to install Mavericks on his new hard drive. No matter what, it wouldn't install. I finally was able to install OS X 10.9.4 on it by connecting the new hard drive to my computer with a USB hard drive enclosure. I put the hard drive back inside his computer and it wouldn't boot (stuck on the gray screen with apple logo and a spinning wheel). I then attached to the hard drive to his computer externally with the USB enclosure, and then it booted and worked perfectly.
    So, it seemed like the problem was with something inside his computer, but then I switched our drives, and that doesn't seem to be the case anymore. I put my original hard drive into his computer, and his new hard drive into my computer, and they both booted and worked perfectly, so I have no idea why his computer will not boot with the new hard drive internally.
    To summarize, his computer boots with: 1) new hard drive connected externally (won't work if it's internal), and 2) my hard drive internally
    but my computer boots with: 1) new hard drive connected externally AND internally, and 2) my hard drive internally.
    Both hard drives have OS X 10.9.4 installed
    If anyone has any idea what's causing this and how to make his computer work with the new hard drive internally that would be greatly appreciated.

    So after switching the internal SATA cables from each computer, now we have
    His computer, with my SATA cable:
    1) Worked with every hard drive!
    My computer, with his SATA cable:
    1) Works with 1 TB Toshiba hard drive
    2) Works with 500 GB Seagate hard drive
    3) Works with my original hard drive
    4) Flashing folder with question mark with his old hard drive
    So it turns out you were right! Definitely had something to do with the SATA cables. But it's still strange that mine was able to boot with all the hard drives except the one that was originally in his. So it seems like it was some combination of his SATA cable and something else, since when his SATA cable was in his computer only 1 hard drive (my original) worked, and when it was in my computer, 3 hard drives worked. But at least its working, and I'm just gonna keep our SATA cables switched since that seems to work out fine

  • Bugs with New/Updated content icons

    In the "My Subscriptions" page, there are two problems with the update icons on the left. Unless someone can prove me wrong or explain how this actually works, these look like bugs to me.
    When I list my subscriptions I see that some have the half blue icon. I understand that that is the "Updated" icon (as opposed to the "New content" icon) as the sole definition of what the icons mean is at the bottom of each post page and it clearly states:
    [Solid blue]: New content since your last visit
    [Half blue]: Updated content since your last visit
    When I click on a thread flagged with the half blue icon (from My Subscriptions) I expect to see that one or more posts have been updated, however *none of the post have the half blue icon*. This is problem #1.
    Once in the thread I do see one or more posts with the solid blue icon. Here's my second problem: if blue means "New content since your last visit" *why am I seeing posts for the second time flagged with the solid blue dot* ?

    Hi,
    In the instance you give, it is because the TOPIC has been updated (half-blue) with a new (solid blue) POST. IIRC, when some one EDITs of of their posts then you may see the half-blue dot for that post.
    Ah, I was right, I just edited this post and it had a half-blue dot.
    Hope this helps.

  • IPhone Apps Moving with new update

    I'm not sure if anyone else on the planet has this but let me breifly explain. Before updating to the new 5.0 update I was able to take all of the apps and move them one page to the right which allowed me to have a "wallpaper" of my beautiful sweetheart free of apps covering the entire picture. Life was good before I updated; simple and I felt in control of my phone. Now Apple has added language to the new update which apparently recognizes this "blank" page and for some reason this annoys the fine folks at Apple so they've made it so that the Apps slide back to the left. With seven pages already of Apps this is extremely disappointing (okay, I've even cussed it so maybe more than disappointing) to manually go in and move the Apps back to the right, starting from the last page and moving that page one to the right and then so on and so on until the first page is again blank. Problem is when I shut down or plug in my phone to the computer the powers that be decide to undo my handy work, and I'm not sure but I see quite a bit more "crashes" with my Apps moved one page over. Point is, I bought the phone, I bought most of the Apps (I admit, I have some freebies as well), I pay my bill so why is language being introduced that takes control of my phone and arranges it how Apple sees fit. Last time I checked I was able to make decisions for my self and the property "I" own. So my question would be that of anyone else having this problem and what solution (if any) they've found to solve this issue.

    I can't say anything about my iPod but I'm almost certain I did this as well (iPod Touch, 32mb, not sure which operating system as I only use it in the car now days since I can also play all my songs from my phone). As for the previous version 4.0 I know I could move all to the right with the blank page and was able to turn off the phone and re-power it and the apps would stay where I had them arranged. I could also connect to the computer without it arranging them during a sync if I was careful not to mess with the settings on the applications portion inside the sync.
    I know this is just trivial and I'm not sure anybody else I know of has done what I've done as far as moving all apps one page to the right or why this would seem to be such a big deal but as stated earlier I use that front page as a wallpaper with my sweethearts picture and with the infatuation I have with her it's pretty important to me.
