Problem with recent changes to LVM2

Hi,
the recent update broke my system. I did everything as described in the anouncement.
- udev hook is used
- the lvm.conf was properly updated
- lvm wait is not used
before rebooting I also did:
If you run pacman -Syu and update device-mapper, linux and lvm2 at the same time, you will get an error message that /sbin/dmsetup is missing. Run mkinitcpio -p linux again after the update to avoid any problems.
I have a LVM inside a luksCrypt container. After rebooting, I am asked for my password and then goes to recovery with the message:
The root device /dev/mapper/[my volume]-root could not be found.
I neither changed my hooks in mkinitcpio nor did I modify their order.
I used a rescue system to both recreate (multiple times) the grub config and linux image following the wiki (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pa … onger_boot) without success.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Hello, I have an problem similar to this one. But my boot setup is slightly different, because I use my own mkinitcpio hook to encrypt my disk from smartcard.
I have two GPT-partitions on the harddisk (boot and a lvm "physical volume"), the smartcard hook only encrypts the pv and normally without the last changes to udev and lvm in the boot procedure, everything is working and my system boots perfect.
But now I got dropped in the initrd rescue shell, after entering my passphrase to access the plugged in smartcard which encrypts my disk. The strange part is, if I enter "exit" to continue the boot process, everything is working as expected.
The order of my hooks in mkinitcpio.conf are the following: HOOKS="base udev autodetect block keymap smartcard encrypt lvm2 resume filesystems keyboard fsck"
(The "encrypt" hook is only needed to add corresponding binaries to the initrd)
Maybe there is a change in when the system is scanned from lvm for new pv's? Or a timeout value is too low.
The main problem is, that I can't switch the "smartcard" hook easily to 'early_run' because it depends on other later hooks (to detect the smartcard reader).
Sorry for my english, I hope this is understandable.
Moved to this thread.

Problem with iChat changing my custom away message after 30 minutes

Lately, I've been having a big problem with iChat changing any custom away message that I put up to "Away" after 30 minutes or so. Is there anything I can do to make it stop? Another issue I'm having is that sometimes when people on my buddy list change their away message, it doesn't show up on iChat unless I go offline and then sign back on. Any idea why it's doing that, and what I can do to get it to stop?
Thanks.

Hi ienjoyanime,
Go to the General Section of iChat Preferences.
Does it say you are set to Go to Away when you log off/QUit iChat ?
is the computer going to Sleep at this point ?

What is the problem with fonts changing to myriad pro? Is this problem ever going to be resolved? Its driving me mad!

What is the problem with fonts changing to myriad pro? Is this problem ever going to be resolved? Its driving me mad!

Browser Dog, Amy,
The default font remains Myriad Pro until you change it, either in the RGB/CMYK Startup files or in the preferences, options depending on versions.
Concerning missing font names, I believe this may solve it:
Open System Preferences and go to Accessibility. Next, select Display from the source list along the left, then check the box labelled Reduce transparency.

Get a lens cleaner disc. One with brushes and try that. CDs and DVDs use different lenses, so since CDs load and play, I strongly suspect a dirty lens.

Problems with Plan Change - Needs Immediate Result

Hello,
I have been a long time Verizon Wireless customer. I have two lines, one of which was assigned to a tablet with a 1gb plan. I maintained this line for the upgrade since my other line has unlimited data. I recently upgraded to the Note 3, and in the process was told that I'd have to establish a new line to accomplish the upgrade. The representative, from Costco, let me know that it shouldn't be a problem transferring the same plan to the newly established line and not to worry about anything going wrong. That night I called Verizon for the first time and worked with a customer service representative who ended up making the problem worse by canceling the tablet line before transferringthe device to the new line. This caused a problem with my sim card, and I have to request a new one because my old was was constantly showing an "aging" status. Even a few days later. The first night consisted of two phone calls to Verizon because the rep mentioned above ended up disconnecting me trying to get over to tech support. The second rep was much more helpful, but wasn't able to do anything and let me know I'd have to work with tech support, but should wait until the next day to allow the sim to "age."
The next day was the 4th of July, so I called back the next day and went through a similar process, spent about 30 minutes with one rep, only to be told my sim was still "ageing" and to talk to tech support. Every time I was connected with tech support it was a minimum 30 minute wait, just to be told that there was nothing they could do, again, and they sent me a new sim card. When i received that sim, at which point it was the following week, I called back and activated my tablet successfully. Hung the phone up and thought all was well, until I saw my balance due the next day. It was nearly double what I usually pay. The representative never informed me that it would default to a prorated amount based on that payment, of 4gb. None of which I need. I called back, again, and was told that I wasn't able to use the old plan I had since it didn't exist anymore. This time the representative was very pleasant, and let me know she'd put a request in to see if the old plan would be possible, given my situation. I was alright with that, and this was the first time I wasn't frustrated after hanging up the phone.
She called me back yesterday letting me know that Verizon isn't willing to allow me to use my old plan, and that there is a new plan options, that is 10 dollars a month. Honestly that was all right, so I called in today to change it to that plan and have it backdated to the date of upgrade to fix my billing issue. During the process of looking up my information, the representative I spoke with today disconnected me. Over the last week and a half I have spent nearly 3-4 hours on the phone with Verizon just trying to fix this issue that was not anything I could have controlled.
The rep at Costco told me I'd have no issues transferring my lien to the new line we opened that day, and the first individual I spoke with on the phone canceled the line too early and further delayed the process by requiring me to request a new SIM card for the tablet. After being disconnected this time, I'm extremely frustrated with the entire situation and Verizon in general. I've been a customer of Verizon for nearly ten years, and for the fist time I am considering moving to another carrier seeing. In that ten year period, I have probably called into customer service less than 5 times. And in the last week and a half I have made more calls, and spent far more time on the phone than every before.
The bottom line is, I need to have the plan changed on my tablet line to something comparable to what I had previously, which was a 20 dollar, 1gb plan with the 10 dollar tablet fee. I need this taken care of ASAP and I need to know it's being done correctly. If Verizon is going to partner with companies like Costco to provide phones to members, and increase their customer base, than these reps need to be better equipped to handle the upgrade process. And it seems that the call centers I have spoken with are a 50/50 shot in terms of reaching someone who is able to do their job effectively and in a timely fashion.
I hope to be contacted with a resolution by today or I will be returning the phone, and looking elsewhere for my wireless needs.
Thank you.
Josh

There is an "undocumented" parameter you need to include in your
page. It MUST be a hidden field value called "p_action". The
form hidden value is either "OK" or "CANCEL" (case sensitive).
Thus, when the form is submitted, this parameter states to
commit the changes. Useful if you have a "Save" button and
a "Cancel" button.

Problem with Recent Purchase?

I recently had a problem with a purchase and didn't know it, and was wondering how I get that resolved?

If it is an issue with a song not playing correctly, you may be able to re-download it with iTunes in the cloud beta. Log in to your account, click on "Purchased" in the Quicklinks section, and re-download the song.

Cannot "Report problem" with recent purchase.

I am using Windows 7 Pro w/ Internet Explorer 11 and iTunes v11.1.3.8. Both these are latest versions as far as I know. Despite this, when I go to report a problem with a recent download, IE shows a message I must be using the latest versions of these two applications in order report the problem.
What to do about this?

Still problems with ID changing in Teaming 2.1?

Hi,
They are still problems with changing the ID from user in the eDIR when they are
will synchronized with the Teaming system?
In the past it was a very bad thing if the user name (ID) was a shortened form the
name of the user e.g. ssmith for Sarah Smith.
When "our" Sarah has married and her new name was e.g. Sarah Stone, new user ID is
sstone, the Teaming system can't "realize" that ssmith and sstone are the same user.
Is this problem fixed in the version 2.1?
THX
Andre

Hi,
A opened a request by Novell and get the answer that all is still the same since version 1.x.
Maybe this behavior will change in the version 4.x.
It's really sad that Teaming can't handle changed IDs.... really sad....
Than we have two ways... first, we change all our IDs to IDs with digits like 1234 or the second way... we use
SharePoint.... really sad.....
I'm wonder me that we are the only firm with such problem....

Problems with recent calls on iPhone 5

I still cannot find a reasonable reason / solution for a couple fo problems with my iPhone 5, both regarding the Recents Calls list.
1. Some of the received/outbound calls do not actually appear
2. Sometimes it is just frustrating not to have them sorted in a normal order.
Anyone with the right trick to solve either or both of the above?
Thanks a lot!

Have you tried resetting your device?
Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)

I am having problems with recent update of adobe digital editions

I tried to download an open book from library and when I tried to transfer to my Kobo I got message
"CE-COPY-NOTALLOWED"no permission to copy book. When I tried to return it I got Message
Ë-BAD-LOAN-ID" I have downloaded other books with no problem, but have had other problems with this version . i.e. the program often shuts down when I return books to library, If I try to download 2 books at a time, when downloading the 2nd book, it tells me I am still downloading the first book and says I already have it. Is anyone having these problems and does anyone have a solution. I would like to go back to 1st version of Adobe Digital if possible, it worked much better for me.

I find the older v1.7.2 has many fewer bugs than the newer V2.0 or 2.0.1.
There are lots of bugs in ADE2.0. (You can have them both installed at once if you like.)
Version 1.7.2, it is a little difficult to find, available on Adobe site for Windows and for Mac.

Problems with recently purchaed Mac Pro

I have bought a Mac Pro of late and certain Applications that i previously owned (Recycle, Wire tap) do not seem to work when i hit the icon on the toolbar. I did some research and found out that these should work due to "Rosetta" but they do not, i have check out the relevant websites and can't seem to find any relative upgrades. does anyone have any good advice for me on what i can do cheers

Hi Matt,
I ran into the same problem with some Apps when I started out with my MacPro. I upgraded from PPC G4 which ran under Panther.
If I'm not mistaken, you need to verify if your old Apps are made to run in Tiger instead of Panther.
In my case, I had to Upgrade some Apps for Tiger versions and I did fresh installs and I'm fine now.

I installed an update to Mac Excel 2011 yesterday. It complete sucessfully but the VBA component is now missing. All Exel files with VBA code now cannot be opened. The following message is shown for each:
Excel could not open xxxx.xlsm because some content is unreadable. Do you want to open and repair this workbook?
I attempted to use the Time Machine to restore the Excel applicatiion but it will not run because it says Excel is open when it is not.
Has anyone had a similar problem with the latest update to Excel?

I bought a refurb ipad 32gb. I have noticed when itunes via wifi fails to do an app update, it screws the whole ios; thereby forcing ipad to go into recovery mode. I thought Apple learned the hard way not to allow one app to bring down the whole os!! This is the 5th time an app caused this. last time Apple forced me to reinstall Itunes, wasted 2 hrs.
I worked hard saving up enough funds to get an iPad. Yes, i even paid Applecare too. If this can be fixed, I want a replacement or a full refund.

Problem with Tempo change using factory - Please Help!

Hi, All
Im experiencing a problem when I change the tempo of an audio file and want to revert back to its original state. I understand that you can not just undo the process so I try and delete the file from my bin and import the file again. The problem that I am experiencing is that even though the original file is at the original tempo, once imported to my bin the temp changes automaticaly to the one I deleted. Is there something I am doing wrong? any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Patryk

you can stretch any audio file already recorded in Logic but there is simple rulethat you must follow:
the Sample must be recorded in Logic at original BPM tempo
you can use Bus routing or bounce...
all resulting files will be vere same as apple loop...
if your file is not recorded in logic just find the correct BPM and after tha, Bounce it!

Problems with recent Mt. Lion update? October

I'm having a lot of weird issues since running a software update. I'm on a 11-inch MacBook Air, purchased in August 2012, running 10.8.2. I ran the Mt. Lion software update and ever since then I've had the following issues:
- Cannot empty trash. I've tried secure empty trash, holding down alt/option and secure empty trash, repairing disk permissions and restarting. Nothing. I get the error:
"The operation can’t be completed because you don’t have permission to access some of the items."
- Wireless network connections timing out. This is happening at home and at work.
- Google account-related things not working. I opened iCal and was prompted to deal with a certificate that was invalid. I thought maybe it was an application-specific password thing. I couldn't get the certificate info window to stop popping up. Ended up having to force quit.
- Fantastical is also prompting me for my two Google account passwords, but when I enter them I get an error code. Error 1. I've e-mailed Flexibits about this issue.
- Being prompted by all apps to access my keychain, sometimes more than once. I guess after the update it forced all my apps to prompt me for new permissions. This is more annoying than anything else.
Overall I'm still able to use my machine, but not in the seamless way I was prior to this update. Anyone having problems with this? Or know of a fix? I'm calling Apple later today to see if they have some ideas. Thanks for your help!

Sounds like your home folder permissions are out of whack.
Open Terminal and paste this command:
sudo chown -R `id -un` ~
Put in your password and press 'return'.
Wait till it finishes, it might take a while. Restart the computer and test.
