[SOLVED]Failed to lookup alias 'nvidia' (X server dies during startop)

Hello there everybody.
I recenly reinstalled Arch so that I could have a nice, clean install, and also because I though I was having trouble with the systemd migration.  I think I was wrong there.
I successfully installed using the February 1st cd.  Since that time, I have been unable to boot into a graphical system.
I have the current proprietary nvidia drivers installed - I tried with an older set with no change, and I tried the Nouveau drivers and got as far as a blinking cursor on TTY7 (but similar X server errors), so I abandoned that route (I want the proprietary drivers).
systemctl status kdm
returns
kdm.service - K Display Manager
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/kdm.service; enabled)
Active: active (running) since Sat 2013-03-23 08:42:09 EDT; 19 min ago
Main PID: 289 (kdm)
CGroup: name=systemd:/systemd/kdm.service
└─289 /usr/bin/kdm -nodaemon
Mar 23 08:42:10 awesomeDelicious kdm[289]: X server for display :0 cannot be started, session disabled
Following advice on another thread, I issued
echo 'nvidia' >> /etc/modules-load.d/nvidia.conf
but I don't think that helps at all, as
/lib/systemd/systemd-modules-load
returns
Failed to lookup alias 'nvidia': Function not implemented
so I am currently at a loss.  I'd like to be able to get back into KDE as soon as I can, so any help is much appreciated!

...so I seem to have a problem with ABI version?
A quick search shows that some people have fixed this with an ignoreABI option somewhere, is this advisable, and how would I accomplish it?
Anyway yes further advice please!

  • [Solved] Failed to initialize the NVIDIA kernel module

    Hi all,
    I've just made the jump to arch and have a fresh install. I'm having trouble getting the nvidia drivers to work. I am currently using the nouveau drivers without issue.
    The method I am using - after much trial - is:
    - uninstall nouveau and mesa lib
    - install nvidia package
    - remove nouveau module entry in mkinitcpio.conf
    - run `mkinitcpio -p linux`
    - edit .conf in xorg.conf.d with minimal required settings. Currently:
    Section "Device"
    Identifier "device0"
    Driver "nvidia"
    BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
    EndSection
    I have installed the linux-headers package and tried reinstalling nvidia again

    The only entry I found in `dmesg | grep nvidia` related to nvidia-drm, and seemed to say it was loaded successfully. I didn't save the exact entry and i've reinstalled nouveau now so that I could post this.
    Any help much appriciated. I've been at this for a while. Learning a lot in the process!

    Success! Several days of trying various things and I finally give in and make a post to this forum. One more attempt - which was only really so that I could add modprobe info to this post - and it works.
    I had at some stage installed the driver xf86-video-nv, and this may have been causing the clash. I un-installed it, and followed the procedure above to reinstall nvidia.
    I think the main hang up I'd had is that I had not been rebuilding my kernel image with mkinitcpio after installing nvidia during my previous attempts.
    I hope some info in here helps some other stuck archer.
    Edit: Thanks graysky. I had found the right nvidia driver using the arch wiki and followed this advice to remove the nouveau hook. Much appriciated.

    Do you have any idea of what should be done to fix it? I don't want to use NVIDIA driver from their site neither nouveau, I want to use the one from the repo. If you know how to solve it, instead of only pointing the solution, also tell why this is happening, it will help me and other people with the same problem too!
    If you need additional information please ask me.
    Thanks!!

    As it's mentioned, it may be a problem of ACPI.
    About the lib32-nvidia-utils, I just installed because it's written in the wiki http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/NVIDIA#Installing: "Note: On 64 bit systems, For 32-bit programs to take advantage of nvidia-utils you must also install the equivalent lib32 package (for example lib32-nvidia-utils)."

  • SOLVED Blurry/Ghosting LCD with Nvidia-96xx

    Hi all,
    I've spent hours trying to figure this out...  I installed the Nvidia-96xx driver for my Geforce2 MX/MX 400 and everything seems ok in my xorg.conf.  XFCE comes up with the right resolution (1280x1024 Dell 1702fp), but everything is blurry.  When i use the Nvidia X Server Settings application, it looks like everything is running correctly - 1280x1024 @ 60hz.  But this doesn't seem right, because otherwise everything wouldn't look so blurry.  And I do mean everything - fonts, icons, etc.
    So I did a bunch of reading and decided to try xrandr.  Well, that seems like a fairly cool command, but it didn't really solve my problem.  However, it did confirm my suspicions that one of these programs is giving me the wrong information, since the only 1280x1024 resolution it gives me is at a 50* 51 refresh rate.  I tried changing the rate with:
    xrandr -r 60
    It wouldn't let me do it.  It says:
    "Rate not available for this size"
    I'm really kind of puzzled about this, I've tried three different ways of generating xorg.conf files (Xorg -configure, xorgconfig, nvidia-xconfig) and they all give me the right resolution, but the wrong refresh rate.  For some reason linux wants to run things at 50hz...
    I'd post more information up here, but I'm not sure what you would want to see.  I'm pretty sure it's not the xorg.conf...
    Hope you guys can help.

    Thanks for the reply, berbae.
    I've been trying different things with the xorg.conf file, but nothing I do seems to help.  I tried adding in some of the things you had in yours, like the EDID option and now my xorg.conf looks like this:

    I also tried using the gtf output a few times and that didn't work either.  I'm starting to wonder if it's a hardware problem.  Seems kind of subtle for a malfunctioning graphics card though, doesn't it?
    Thanks again

  • External Data Refresh Failed. We cannot locate a server to load the workbook Data Model. ThisWorkBookDataModel

    Hi All,
    I have been trying to fix this for days now. I have tried solutions in many articles but to no avail. So while the error message is something you may have seen may times, I just can't find a solution in my case.
    This is the error:
    And in text just in case the image isn't viewable:
    "External Data Refresh Failed. We cannot locate a server to load the workbook Data Model. We were unable to refresh one or more data connections in this workbook. The following connections failed to refresh: ThisWorkBookDataModel."
    What is worse is I have checked the ULS (SharePoint Trace Logs), the Event Viewer Logs and the OWA Logs and I cannot find a specific error that would help pin point the problem.
    Excel Workbook
    So what am I doing? I have an Excel 2013 workbook and I create an "SQL Server" connection to the AdventureWorksDW database, add a pivot table and a pivot chart, test in in Excel and all works fine.
    I save the Excel workbook to SharePoint 2013 and then select "Data" then "Refresh All Connections" and then I get the error in the picture above.
    Even more puzzling is I have another Excel workbook that also has pivot tables and pivot charts in the AdventureWorksDW2012Multidimensional cube database in "SQL Analysis Services" and this works fine. Hmmm.
    My Environment
    My environment is Windows 2008 R2 Server, SharePoint 2013 with the April Service Pack1 and a separate server with OWA2013 SP1. It has an SQL Server 2008 R2 database which has been upgraded to SQL Server 2012.
    Data Model Settings
    In Excel Services this is set to my server name which is "server-name". As I do not have instances all I can enter is the server name. As this works everywhere else including the workbook outside of SharePoint I do not think this is the problem.
    But I could be wrong.
    Unattended Account
    I have set this up for the PowerPivot Services App and Excel Services App.
    ODC Connections in Excel
    I have tried all 3 authentication modes, Windows, Secure Store ID and "None" which is the unattended account. I have not tried the other connection types, should I?
    Not in WOPI
    I am not in WOPI mode.
    AD Accounts
    I have added permissions in the SharePoint Services and SQL Server, and as they work in Excel outside of SharePoint, I do not think it is a permissions issue. I could be wrong of course, but the problem is in one of SharePoint, OWA, AD,
    SQL Server, Excel, and Windows Server.
    Isolate the Error
    Below is a list of errors I think are relevant but they do not tell me much. The SharePoint logs are not really giving me an error that tells me what to do and where to do it, or even why it cannot refresh, (perhaps not noticeable by the untrained eye).
    Problem with SQL Server Not Analysis Services
    So my cube database in analysis services works fine in SharePoint/OWA but not the databases in sql server. This is my best clue but I have no idea what it means. Why would it work with an Analysis Services connection but not an "SQL Server" connection?
    It Works Outside of SharePoint
    If I run the excel worksheet outside of SharePoint all works fine. When inside OWA this is where the refresh error occurs.
    Errors from Event Viewer on SharePoint Server using ULS Viewer
    "Failed to create an external connection or execute a query. Provider message: There are no servers available or actively being initialized., ConnectionName: , Workbook:"
    "Refresh failed for 'ThisWorkbookDataModel' in the workbook 'http://server...'. [Session: 1.V22.26itT0lx8piNFeqtuGVhN214.5.en-US5.en-US36.98c0e158-9113-46e9-850e-edda81d9ed1c1.A1.N User: 0#.w|ad\testuser1]"
    And an error in the ULS under the "Data Model" category:
    "--> Check Deployment Mode (server-name): Fail (Expected: SharePoint, Actual: Multidimensional)."
    This last error, as it turned out, defined the problem concisely, although I was yet to work out what it meant in some detail.

    I finally solved this myself (or should I say with the help of several key articles).
    The refresh did not work because the database was not in "SharePoint Mode". Yes, SQL Server has modes, 3 of them in fact.
    If you installed SharePoint to the default SQL instance which would be called <servername> then you cannot use this default instance for Excel 2013 workbooks in OWA 2013 because the refresh only works if the database is in SharePoint mode.
    So what are these 3 modes? The Deployment Mode property in the msmdsrv.ini file has them as:
    0 = Multidimensional mode (the default whenever you install SQL Server normally)
    1 = PowerPivot for SharePoint mode
    2 = Tabular mode mode
    How do you know what mode you are in? That's easy, open SQL Studio Manager and connect to all your SQL database engine instances (ignore Analysis Services or SSRS as they are not database engines). If you only have the default instance then that is almost
    definately in Multidimensional mode which is the default and what SharePoint installs its databases to.
    You must have an instance called <servername>\POWERPIVOT. This instance is the "sharepoint mode" needed, and the default instance name when you install an SQL instance in this mode.
    If you don't see <servername>\POWERPIVOT in SQL server then you are not in "sharepoint mode". It is more accurate to say, you do not have an instance that is in sharepoint mode. This is because you cannot simply switch modes on an SQL server.
    You have to install a new instance in the required mode, thats the only way.
    That's easy enough. Load up the SQL Server setup CD and run setup. Install a brand new instance and select "SQL Server PowerPivot for SharePoint" when you get there in the wizard.
    Now you will have the default instance that stores all the SharePoint databases and that is in mode 0, and a new instance called <servername>\POWERPIVOT that is in mode 1. The "<servername>\POWERPIVOT" instance connection is what you
    will use for Excel 2013 when rendering in OWA 2013.
    You also need to ensure OWA 2013 is not in WOPI mode for Excel worksheets. See the last link below for more information about WOPI.
    Next you should go to the Excel Service App in CA and click Data Model Settings and add the <servername>\POWERPIVOT instance.
    Then you have to either turn off the firewall on the SQL server machine, or create an inbound rule on the Windows firewall to open the TCP port for the <servername>\POWERPIVOT instance:
    1. Start Task Manager and then click Services to get the PID of the MSOLAP$InstanceName.
    2. Run netstat –ao –p TCP from the command line to view the TCP port information for that PID.
    Finally, you can now create Excel 2013 workbooks that run in OWA without refresh errors, as long as you are connecting to the <servername>\POWERPIVOT instance. Hooray.

  • [SOLVED] Bumblebee/bbswitch Not Disabling Nvidia Card

    Hello all.  I've been able to resolve a wide variety of problems by searching through the posts here, but it seems I've come up empty on this one.
    I'm running Arch on a Sager NP5160 (Clevo W150HN), i7-2630 QM, 8 GB RAM, running Optimus with an Nvidia GT 540M Optimus setup.
    I've had Bumblebee and bbswitch running fine in the past, but recently I needed to reinstall Arch (my own fault).
    I installed bumblebee and bbswitch again, as described on the wiki. 
    However, once everything is installed and configured, bbswitch is still unable to deactivate my Nvidia card.
    I'm using the proprietary Nvidia driver.
    I have verified that bumblebee.conf has the driver set to Nvidia (not nouveau), and uses bbswitch.
    I have also tried blacklisting both nouveau and nvidia, as well as adding bbswitch to the modules section of my mkinitcpio.conf file (and regenerating the initramfs).
    A curious point that I have noted is that the Nvidia card is disabled during boot, and up until I login.
    Once my information loads, the Nvidia card is activated and I cannot deactivate it, even manually.
    Here is the dmesg output when I run glxspheres64 using bumblebee:

    Sorry to bump this, but I've found some more information.
    Unfortunately, I'm not sure what to do with it yet.
    I've uninstalled and reinstalled the relevant packages outlined in the Bumblebee wiki.
    When my laptop boots, the Nvidia card is disabled up until I log in, at which point it appears to be perpetually enabled, unless the Optimus indicator lights are showing incorrectly.
    This is the log output I receive when I run optimus glxspheres64:

  • Xorg Problem - Failed to initialize the NVIDIA graphics device!

    Hello.
    I've encountered a problem while installing my Xorg server, which I'd like to use with KDE.
    Here's the track of my xorg installation:
    # sudo pacman -Syu
    # sudo pacman -S xorg
    (my graphic card is vVidia GeForce 8600 GT)
    # sudo pacman -S nvidia-96xx nvidia-96xx-utils
    # sudo nvidia-xconfig
    (that's where I wanted to check if I did everything right)
    #sudo startx
    Xorg started loading and after a few secs it printed such output:
    NVIDIA: could not open the devie file /dev/nvidia0 (Input/output error).
    (EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the NVIDIA graphics device PCI:4:0:0.
    (EE) NVIDIA(0): Please see the COMMON PROBLEMS section in the README for additional information.
    (EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the NVIDIA graphics device!

    giving up.
    xinit: Connection refused (errno 111): unable to connect to X server
    xinit: No such process (errno3): Server error.
    What should I do?

    # sudo nvidia-xconfig
    1. wrong driver. the 96xx driver is for horrible old hardware, like the gf4. Install 'nvidia' and 'nvidia-utils' instead.
    2. don't use nvidia-xconfig, it's not needed.
    3. reboot after installing the driver if you havn't disabled kms already.

  • Fail to lookup jndi in EJB

    Hi,
    My application failed to lookup a JMS Object using JNDI lookup in EJB.
    The actual application flow is that a Servlet receive a request which
    then calls to an EJB
    where it loop up the JMS object to establish the message queue
    connection.
    It works with a simple Servlet which loop up the JMS Object without call
    to EJB.
    Does anyone known the possible reason causes the application failed to
    lookup the JMS Object?
    Thanks

  • Parse failed: Exception: DBD, [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver] Syntax Er

    I received the following error when I gave the following  statement in select:
    case when {fn_year(FINANCE_PERIOD.FP_START)} @prompt('Enter Year','N',,mono,free)
    then 1 else 0

    Parse failed: Exception: DBD, [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver] Syntax Error or access violationState: 42000
    I looked at differnt forums but could not fnd the error.

    Sams Latin
    then try this:
    CASE
    WHEN YEAR(FINANCE_PERIOD.FP_START) = @Prompt('Enter Year','N',here give class/object or LOV's,mono,free) THEN 1 ELSE 0
    END
    Note: In case of Date , you can make it blank (3rd parameter), which gives you calendar at runtime.
    I suggest you try it in step by step like:
    >>  @Prompt('Enter Year','N',here give class/object or LOV's,mono,free)
    Parse it, succeed. Then
    >> YEAR(FINANCE_PERIOD.FP_START)
    Parse it, then
    for each case see LOV's.
    >> at last,  try above CASE WHEN
    Hope it solves you.

  • Failed to get alias mappers sub context in the Portal Registry

    Hi,
    I have read a few posts on this error message (in EP6 SP12), but I am getting it in a context that has not yet been posted.  What I am trying to do is create a link using the EPCM.doNavigate('ROLES://portal_content...') navigation.  This seems to be working, but there is one problem, with a normal user, the detailed navigation disappears when they click my link.  This doesn't happen for me, but something still isn't working properly. 
    I know in EP5 I got the link to work and the detailed navigation would reflect what link I clicked, but not in EP6.
    Anyone know what I am doing wrong?  The det. nav. should highlight the link I clicked, and it should definitely not disappear after clicking the link.  It is not launching into a new window, just using the same one.
    This is the error message that I am getting:
    #1.5#0003FF515725007500000005000027EC00040146A10B242C#1127302767189

    Any ideas?
    Thanks and best regards,

  • Failed to lookup External Link

    Hi,
    I just upgraded to EP7 SP12 and deployed the ESS BP.  When I try to preview Content Administration -> Portal Content -> Content Provided by SAP -> Employee Self Service -> iViews -> Benefits and Payment -> Benefits Participation, we see the below error.
    com.sapportals.portal.prt.runtime.PortalRuntimeException: Failed to lookup External Link for: portal_content/com.sap.pct/every_user/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.bp_folder/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.iviews/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.benefits_payment/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.benparticipation
    Any one have any ideas?
    Your help is greatly appreciated.
    Regards,
    Rick

    I did some more research. It seems like we are having the same problem on another portal server. So I don't think I caused the problem. This is coming from the standard business planning pages like planning wizard, planning modeler, etc.

  • Shortcut/alias to VPN server

    i'm sure this has been answered but can't find anything in a search...
    i've successfully set up a VPN to our server, but i'm unable to find a way to create a shortcut or alias to the server once i've connected the VPN (using the VPN icon in the menu bar)... is this possible? or do i need to keep using Connect to Server... in the Finder menu??
    ideally i'd like an alias either on my Desktop, the Finder toolbar or on my Dock...
    cheers

    but when entering the exact address (afp://ip_address/FKDA) in VPN on Demand, it doesn't activate the vpn
    You didn't read closely enough. VPN on demand requires that you enter the DOMAIN NAME that should trigger the VPN connection. Not a URL.
    e.g. if the URL you're accessing is afp://server.domain.local/sharepoint then the domain name would be server.domain.local.
    Without checking, I don't know if an IP address is sufficient - probably not since I could imagine VPN on Demand intercepts name lookups, so you may need to use the name of the server on the internal network, not its IP address. If that's the case you'd need to ensure that there's valid, working DNS for your internal network.
