[SOLVED] Boot problems after system upgrade

hi everybody,
first of all i have to say, that the machine where i installed Arch is pretty old (something around 5 years).
I already tried installing Arch two times and every time after i performed a system upgrade, i couldn't boot arch.
Before the upgrade i rebooted several times to ensure that its working with the brand new installation - it worked.
Here i'm the 3rd try. This time i configured packman to ignore the kernel package and voila its working now with kernel 2.6.25.6-1.
So, here is my question: Is there any problem that could appear later on if i never upgrade the kernel?
I'm quite new to linux and really appreciate your support.
Regards
Daniel

Well ... the kernel, like any other piece of program, from time to time has to be patched if they find a bug in it.
Never upgrading means that you do not get the benefit of security and improvements patches.
There is also the issue that some programs, a few, may want to have a certain kernel to run but I think that is less common.
I, for instance, have not upgraded the kernel for a few months now because it screws up my wifi.
If you can live with that then  you are OK.

    For me it occurred after this update..... I dunno why , but openbox wouldn't load, kde would, however
    Guess it's due to the mesa update and using the legacy nvida-173xx driver

  • Sound problems after system upgrade

    I am having intermittent sound problems on my ipad2 after I upgraded to 6. When this occurs my volume control doesn't work. This problem occurs sometimes in the middle of playing a video.

    hhhmm, thanks for the answer,
    i reinstalled alsa-driver, run depmod -a & then try to load the modules & it doesn't work! i always get :
    Can't locate module snd-pcm-oss
    that happens with all the modules i try to load. & my modules are still in
    /lib/modules/2.4.24/kernel/sound
    is there a way i can load them from there or copy them somewhere else or i don't know what else. 
    thanks for the help though!

  • [SOLVED]X server problem after system upgrade - fonts garbled

    Hi all,
    I "pacman -Syu"-ed my system yesterday and now my X server is busted. Admittedly, I don't upgrade as often as I should and this was a pretty big upgrade for me so perhaps something broke due to that. Now I cannot see fonts and icons properly. All text except for the "system" fonts is hopelessly garbled. I can only see text clearly in xterm. Images show up just fine.
    Please click the link below for a clearer picture of the problem
    In addition to this, the system hangs (blank screen, but disk light still on) when I exit my X session.
    I went through all the logs but found nothing amiss....
    Pls help, I'd really like my nice archlinux system back....
    thanks in advance.

    SOLVED!
    The upgrade must have corrupted my intel video drivers because removing and reinstalling the i810 package fixed the problem.

  • [SOLVED] boot hangs after system update

    Hi, I upgraded to latest kernel26 and latest udev packages, but unfortunately my system hangs somewhere early at boot, the last lines I see are:
    sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Attached SCSI disk
    done.
    Waiting 10 seconds for device /dev/disk/by-uuid/7133...
    EXT4-fs (sda3): mounted filesystem with ordered data mode
    mount: proc already mounted
    and after that nothing. No error or anything. I have no idea what's wrong. I tried downgrading my kernel to 2.6.33 and also tried downgrading udev to 251, but with no luck. However with an archlinux-livecd I am able to mount all my drives and chroot to the system.
    Does anyone have an idea, what might be wrong?
    greetings,
    Niclas
    EDIT: I just reinstalled archlinux, no problems so far

    unfortunately not, I tried removing alsa-utils and also tried setting i915.modeset=0, but error remains. Anyway thanks for your help

  • [Solved] Boot problem after update

    After updating my Archlinux (64bit) installation and rebooting it a few minutes ago
    I have encountered the following problem. The boot process is hanging after
    activation of logical volumes. Here are the boot messages:
    Booting the kernel.
    :: Staring udevd...
    done.
    :: Running Hook [udev]
    :: Triggering uevents…done.
    :: Running Hook [lvm2]
    Activating logical volumes…
    15 logical volume(s) in volume group "system" now active
    I have also tried the fallback kernel. The same problem!
    What is going wrong?
    Regards

  • [SOLVED] Boot failure after system update

    Been running nicely for a few months, but after a  -Syu update yesterday morning, the boot process fails immediately after the bit about "Processing Udev events", which memory tells me is the point in the boot process where the screen resolution changes up, so it's my video driver I'm suspecting.  I'm running a middle-aged PC with a middle-aged nVidia card, which the nouveau drivers have managed very nicely up to this point, but something in the latest kernel seems to be causing mischief.  This machine dual-boots Arch with Windows 98; the latter is working just fine, as do other linux distros booted from a live CD, so I'm sure the hardware itself is OK. 
    After I see the line about processing Udev events, all I get is a completely black screen, but no report of "no signal" from the monitor.  No key presses or Ctrl-Alt-Del combinations have any effect.
    If I was to post the relevant log file, would some kind soul take a look?  I'm no expert AT ALL, so please tell me which one(s) to post!
    TIA,
    Piers.

    Many thanks -- but I seem to have the same problem in single-user mode.  Followed instructions in your second link, appending "single" or "Single" at the end of the "kernel..." line, and then pressing b.  Same result as before, it gets as far as the line "Waiting for Udev to process uevents...... [BUSY]" and then screen goes to black.
    My other difficulty is, and this is where I start sounding a bit feeble; I can look at errors.log, or everything.log, but it's all rather Greek to me, and even if I see something that makes it quite clear that it is the nouveau driver that needs re-installing, I really don't see how I can re-install the driver if I can't even get as far as a command prompt?
    FWIW, I'm seeing in errors.log
    "[drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: mem timing table length unknown: 14"
    ... but I've seen that before, and it's never been fatal.

  • [SOLVED] Boot problems after rEFInd update

    Hello,
    I dual boot windows and arch using rEFInd. After an rEFInd update yesterday my system directly boots into windows. Any ideas how to bring the rEFInd menu back?
    Thanks!
    Last edited by Cygnus (2012-09-27 08:45:52)

    The refind-efi package install the file to /usr/{lib,share}/refind/*  . You need to manually copy the files to UEFISYS partition. The files in /boot/efi/EFI/arch/refind/* should have been removed when refind-efi-x86_64 pkg was removed. BTW try gummiboot-efi also.

  • K7 Delta 2 Nforce2 boot problem after ram upgrade

    Ill start out with the stats of the system
    Delta 2 w/ DDR-400 Ultra support
    Althlon XP 2100+ 266fsb cpu
    512 Mb Mushkin High Perf Level II 2-2-2 Ram
    80 GB IBM Deskstar HD 7200RPM
    30 GB Maxtor HD 7200RPM
    Radeon 9700 Pro
    SB Live 5.1 Soundcard
    Standard 400W power supply, all voltages were normal
    So here is the issue, this system was running perfectly until i purchased two more sticks of mushkin ram, 2x256 mb ram sticks of Hi Perf Level II 2-2-2 ram, i placed this in the dual channled slots.  Machine then restarted and i got into BIOS where i set the clock to 166 to obtain my 333 fsb for the RAM, and selected the high performance timings.  This is when disaster happened, upon saving to cmos, nothing will work now, no bios screen, no beep errors, just the two green lights on bottom, and red lights on top of the MSI s bracket.  I have swapped out the ram, and cleared the CMOS, same thing, im all out of ideas, im going to try swapping the CPUs, but how could there be anything wrong with the CPU, i know all this stuff worked on the system.  Any Ideas?
    -RastassJr

    First Refer to your manual to make sure I have this right as I am going from memory.
    As Wonkonoby suggests, the J10 jumper can be set to safe mode 100mhz for the CPU FSB.
    Then remove the jumper block from J11, this will set the CPU Frequency to 100mhz.
    These settings will usually help in recovering from bad settings in the BIOS or an overclock gone awry.
    You may have to Clear the CMOS with JBAT1 Jumper, but please make sure you DO NOT start your PC with the JBAT1 jumper in the clear CMOS postition! You will probably bork your motherboard!
    To clarify:
    Please unplug the power supply from the power outlet or remove the power plug from the back of the unit.
    Then, press the power button to purge any remaining power that is in the capacitors in the power supply. (sometimes you will notice the fans spin for a millisecond when you do this)
    Set Jumpers J10 & 11 as described.
    Clear CMOS by moving the JBAT1 Jumper to the "CLEAR" CMOS position for a few minutes. (it's often recommended to remove the battery after moving the jumper to the "CLEAR" position and waiting a few minutes befor replacing it and then replacing the battery and moving the Jumper back to the "KEEP" position)
    Thats it, you should be able to start your PC and enter the BIOS. Make sure you set the jumpers J10 and J11 back to where they were and then enter all your BIOS settings again but this time be careful about timings.
    If that does not work then you have a more serious problem.

  • No battery life after system upgrade

    I've searched this forum and found a few notes about significant battery problems after Android upgrades. Immediately after upgrading my Droid X, my battery life went from more than 24 hours to about 4 hours. The battery is very hot and takes about 6 hours to charge. Clearly something is draining the battery. The Verizon tech folks declared it a faulty battery and are sending a new one. I am certain that's not the problem, especially since others have reported the same issue.
    So I hoped to wipe the cache before having to do a factory reset -- it was suggested as a possible solution. I have found some instructions for wiping the cache, but I can't seem to get the instructions to work. I power off my Droid, then hold the home key. Nothing happens. So I can't get to the menu that gives the options mentioned. Can anyone help? I loved my Droid until this update... I really need my phone to work as I am self-employed. I am my own IT department! 

    Hi dazzie,
    I understand your discontent; I would be frustrated if my phone's battery drained for no apparent reason. Please run your phone in Safe Mode as recommended by Cody21 (thank you!). Safe Mode temporarily disables all applications that have been installed via the Android Market. Performing this troubleshooting step is necessary to determine whether a 3rd party application is the cause of an Operating System / Application issue.
    I have checked my resources and I learned that similar battery issues have occurred with other devices upon a software upgrade due to third party applications that are not fully compatible with the upgrade Operating System and a Factory Reset has resolved most post upgrade issues. Please do a Factory Reset as this may resolve your concerns.
    Please keep in mind that performing a hard reset will remove ALL data including the Google account, system data, application data, application settings, and downloaded applications.

  • DataSource problems after BW upgrade

    DataSource problems after BW upgrade
    Upgrade from
    SAP NetWeaver 2004s: SAP_BW 700 0012 SAPKW70012

    BW system: PI_BASIS 7.01 SP 6
    ECC/source system: PI_BASIS 2005_1_700 SP 11
    Problem exists throughout, both with generic and standard DataSources.
    Here is one specific example:
    Generic DataSource ZXXXXXXXX
    InfoPackage "ZXXXXXXXX(ZXXXXXXXX)" does not run. Error:
    DataSource ZXXXXXXXX(SOURCESYS) must be activated
    Message no. RSDS179
    Then followed these steps:
    1. Replicate Metadata from source system
    2. Report RSDS_DATASOURCE_ACTIVATE_ALL from SE38 for source system SOURCESYS and DataSource ZXXXXXXXX
    Errors returned:
    Inconsistent user object ZXXXXXXXX SOURCESYS for PSA /BIC/B000XXXX
    Error saving DataSource ZXXXXXXXX SOURCESYS
    DataSource ZXXXXXXXX (SOURCESYS) could not be activated
    When I try to choose "Manage" from the context menu for the DataSource, I see an error:
    Invalid DataStore object name /BIC/B000XXXX: Reason: No valid entry in table RSTS

    And no other SDN threads seem to give fruitful suggestions.
    Any ideas?

    Hi,
    Just to help the folks out here.
    In my case,
    Inspite of going through several valid NOTES & program, my issue didnt resolve (you reply was pretty accurate - but dint help me :-)).
    I have resolved the issue by adjusting the PSA table for the same.
    Procedure:
    Take the psa name  --> go to table rstsods --> find the ODSNAME_TECH name for the relevant psa  --> se38 t.code --> enter ODSNAME_TECH and click on 'adjust & activate database table' (make sure you have selected 'save data' radio button.
    Just in case anyone who come across this problem, can do the above steps.
    Regards,
    Dubbu.

  • Fonts went strange after system upgrade

    After 'pacman -Syu' i rebooted and my fonts started looking strange, kinda bigger.
    In some places its not even noticeable but again in other places it is x(.
    I'm using Flubox as a WM and i really don't think this has anything to do with the WM.
    I was wondering if anyone else experienced some similar problems after this upgrade?

    I tried clearing the font cache but it didin't help.
    Any ideas?

    I'm having a similar issue. Only difference is that fonts looks smaller than before the upgrade.
    I don't think this has something to do with KMS, because that update was a week ago an no problem was detected. This small fonts issue is probably related to recent updates on xorg- stuff.
    Moreover, the strange thing here is that only GUIs fonts got smaller. Fonts on firefox (the webpage, not the user interface) looks exactly the same as before.
    What should we do?

    Check that your computer is compatible with Mountain Lion.
    To check the model number hold down the option/alt key, go to the Apple menu and select System Information.
    iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) model number 7,1 or higher
    MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) model number 5,1 or higher
    MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
    MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) model number 2,1 or higher
    Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
    Xserve (Early 2009) model number 3,1 or higher
    Your Mac needs:
    OS X v10.6.8 or OS X Lion already installed
    2 GB or more of memory (More is better - 4 GB minimum seems to be the consensus)
    8 GB or more of available space
    If you can/do upgrade, I recommend you make a copy of the installer and move it out of your Applications folder. The installer self-destructs. The copy will keep you from having to download the installer again.  You can make a bootable DVD/USB stick to install using this free program.
    Bootable Drive DVD or USB Flash Drive – Lion Diskmaker
    Our 2 computers haven't experienced any significant problems, even though others have. I find it much better than 10.7 Lion, which I used for a week before reverting to 10.6.8
    Mavericks is supposed to be released this fall, so you may want to wait.

    I was going to suggest - Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings, but if you are restoring to factory settings, that should restore the settings back to factory defaults. But if you are restoring from a backup, after restoring to factory settings, try resetting all of the settings and see if that fixes it.
    It might be something in your backup.
