[Solved] No boot bc changed file(Old:not booting after battery runout)

x86_64
kernel 3.7.9-1
Cinnamon DE
I was copying files from an external USB HDD and I didn't notice the battery was running out, and so it did run out.
Therefore it shut down, and now I can't access Linux. (Also tried fallback mode)
Also I'm dual-booting arch and w7, and w7 does boot, it's weird that arch just won't.
So Grub menu does load, but after selecting Arch , it just hangs with one text line and prompt, also can't input anything; it shows like this:
/dev/sda4: clean, 250964/1638400 files, 2039871/6553600 blocks
That's shown when I don't have the USB HDD connected (the one I copied files from)
And when I do have it connected, it's the same just some more lines:
/dev/sda4: clean, 250969/1638400 files, 2040885/6553600 blocks

Without the 'quiet' kernel parameter, it says that dhcpcd service failed and it stucks at [OK] Graphical User Interface.
Also managed to get the logs (dmesg,journalctl,xorg.0.log). And with all of your input I realized that I recently modified several files to have another keyboard layouts, which I still haven't managed to achieve. I remember I did reboot after the changes to those files, but other layouts never showed up, so I left those files modified (mistake)
Now the thing is that I thought that I had fixed one of them '10-keyboard.conf' in the above posts, as frank604 suggested commenting out the whole section inputclass. For some reason I Interpreted that as 'coment out only ''inputclass' line'' and never checked the log (xorg.0.log) after the change...
Well now after checking the new log, it says 'error on line 7' so after commenting out the whole section, like this:
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "Keyboard Defaults"
MatchIsKeyboard "ye"
Option "XbkLayout" "us"
#Section "InputClass"
# Identifier "Keyboard-layout"
# MatchIsKeyboard "on"
# Option "XkbLayout" "us,es"
# Option "XkbOption" "grp:caps_toggle"
EndSection
I typed startx ,it didn't mark another error but it still wouldn't start,so I decided to reboot.
After that... arch does enter now !
All of this just because I wanted to change the keyboard layouts.
Having said that.. the problem was that file I modified and after removing my changes and rebooting, now it boots!. Seems like the 'battery run out while copying files' was not related to arch not booting, or so I think.
Thanks for all your attention

  • Access DB (& .ldb file) does not close after crystal reports

    Post Author: mgold
    CA Forum: Crystal Reports
    Access DB (& .ldb file) does not close after crystal reports
    Hi! We have a VB application using Crystal Reports 6 that has worked successfully on hundreds of systems for over 10 years. Now, on one network, the application and access database does not close. It seems to hang on the [.Close] command.
    When we open the application an peruse the screens without opening up a report (using crystal reports), the application and access db closes fine. But as soon as we run a report and then close the report and try to close the application, the access db does not close. Many of the screens open the db and grab data from the access db, but it's only after running crystal reports that we have this problem. (Please see more information below.)
    Setup: Application and data (access 97 db) reside on a server in the same folder, but application shortcut is kicked off on client PC. Kicking off the shortcut on the client PC means that the image/process runs on the client PC (not on the server). In this problem case, the application shortcut is on a Windows XP Pro Version 2002 SP2 PC with the app & data on a Windows 2003 server. Users are local Admins on their PCs with "Full Control"over the directory and files on the server where the data (access 97 db) resides. This type of setup is typical and has worked without any problems for clients.
    The application is written in Visual Basic, using Crystal Reports 6 (using DAO). We close the recordset, set it to zero and then it hangs on closing the db (.Close command).
    A few key pieces of information:
    - The application closes fine if the app & data (access 97 db) are on a local PC. This includes closing fine if the application is run directly on the Windows 2003 server where the data is stored.
    - It worked on this client's network until sometime in the last few weeks.
    - One thing that changed is that the company is using VMWare on its servers. Not sure if they started using VMWare at the same time as it started failing. This may be unrelated. Possibly other things changed, but can't get any more information ... yet.
    - It works fine running the application from a Windows Vista PC with a user who is a domain admin.
    - The access db and application hang for about 10-20 minutes and then eventually closes. It appears that somehow
    Crystal Reports is keeping the db open, but I'm not sure why.The application doesn't quit and the database doesn't close even if I try to end the task with the Task Manager.
    - The Crystl32.ocx version being used is 8.0.0.4 (if that matters).
    - I copied 6 month old program files and database files to a test folder on the Windows 2003 server. It fails using these files that worked fine 6 months ago.
    Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated! If you know of another good place to post this, please let me know.
    Thanks!
    - Mark

    Crystal doesn't support tables in HTML interpretation.

  • Why does iTunes freeze up for minutes at a time when modifying INFO (CMD-i) ?  My files are not corrupted after it is done like many other threads i have readed.

    Why does iTunes freeze up for minutes at a time when modifying INFO (CMD-i) ?  My files are not corrupted after it is done like many other threads i have readed.  Sometimes it's changing the title of a movie or editing the season and episode number of a TV show ect.....

    Yup same here
    I am running the latest iTunes, the latest updates to the OS and on an iMac 3.4GHz Quad core i7 with 8GB of RAM and the music stored on local HDD.
    Still locks up iTunes for between 2 minutes up to 20 minutes.
    Really annoying.
    If you find a fix please, please let me know, I have just been throwing hardware at it with no joy at all

  • Some mp3 files do not play after upgrading to iTunes 8.0

    some mp3 files do not play after upgrading to iTunes 8.0
    have upgraded and some songs which used to play on iTunes 7 no longer play. album art is missing. when trying to play on of these songs, nothing appears in the playbar at the top of the window.
    it seems the same problem exists in the mac os environment.

    The solution I discovered to fix this problem was to create a smart playlist with all song of a kind containing MPEG. Then I went through album by album, and coverted ID3 tags using the value of NONE. This then enabled me to play the songs in iTunes 8.0 and in many cases restored the Album Art.
    Thanks!

  • M4b files will not sync after recent update

    I recently updated the software on my ipod touch 4th gen. After updating, I tried to sync my playlists, but not all of the files would sync. After some investigation, I figured out that the files that wouldn't sync were audio books in m4b format. They synced just fine before the update. What is the problem here?

    Thank you for the response, I have not tried a restore, won't that wipe out everything on the phone? Leaving on vacation and don't have time to start over, I'll have to try this after I get back if the next response does not solve the problem.

  • Old notes disappeared after updated to OS X Mavericks

    After updating to OS X Marericks I lost all my old notes from the "Notes" app.
    I do have an iCould account but I never linked it. Now all my notes had been replaced with the notes from my iPhone, pretty much NOTHING!!!
    Unfortunately I did not backup my MBP before updating because I don't have a hard drive big enough to use TimeMachine..
    Is there any way I can retreat my old notes?? They were very valuable to me and this is really upsetting.
    Thank you.

    A Major change is an excellent occasion to pause and make extra Backups before you proceed.
    Drives are incredibly cheap by historical standards. There is no reason NOT to make one or more Backups first.
    [Restoring after] Backing Up  is SO much easier than FIXing Up.

  • Hyperlinks from converted excel file are not working after pdf file is moved

    I have created a pdf file from an excel file that has hyperlinks in it. The hyperlinks work fine if the files are all kept in the same exact location as the time they were created. Once the files are moved (i.e. emailed to another user) the hyperlinks no longer work. An error message pops up that the file can not be found. Is there a setting or something that I'm missing in acrobat that allows for the files to be moved, so that the hyperlinks still function properly, after creation

    No settings adjustments.
    The issue is that links, once made, have a specific path (as shown when you view the link's text string).
    When you email the files the person who recieves the email and downloads the attachments would have to have the same layout of files/folders you have.
    Without that links are "broken"
    You email a zip file that, when extracted, would create the folders/files in the required layout to reflect what you have.
    Be well...

  • File does not exist after ftp downloading

    Hi all,
    I have a really strange problem.
    I'm getting a file from a remote server (ftp "get"), the process ends with no exceptions, but when I go to the specific directory where the file should have been - there is nothing there.
    I tried to get the file manually through acommand line ftp and it succeeded, but performing the same operation in the java code gives me no result.
    I also scanned the entire hard-disks but again - the file does not exist anywhere.
    Any idea? Anyone?

    performing the same
    operation in the java code gives me no result.Obviously not the same operation. As Hiwa says, impossible to say further without some code.

  • All of my old notes disappeared after upgrading to ios 6.1, how do I get them back?

    I upgraded by iPhone 4s and iPad 2 to IOS 6.1.  Now all of my old notes are gone. Is there a way to retrieve them?
    Thanks,
    Marti Garner

    I was having this same issue.  I went into Settings -> iCloud and turned the Notes sync ON (which when I tried to do previously, i was prompted to create an iCloud email address which I already had).  Once I turned that on, I went to Settings ->Notes and I now see a "Default Account" selection which is set to iCloud.  Now all of my new notes save on the phone and on the cloud.  This doesn't fix the fact that I appear to have forever LOST all the notes I had before iOS6.1.  Apple, we're still waiting for a response???

  • TPS file is not deleted after FrameMaker creates PDFs via Acrobat 8

    Using FrameMaker 7.2 build 158, and Adobe Acrobat 8, when creating PDF files, the temporary PostScript file (*.tps), which is created before the final PDF, is not deleted after the creation of the PDF is complete.
    This is a big deal for us because we are using a tool which hooks into the PDF-creation of FrameMaker/Distiller, and is reliant on this TPS file being deleted.
    Is this a known bug? Does Adobe know about this? Do any other users have workarounds for this?

    Thomas,
    FWIW, speaking from experience with the Save As route, I've seen
    random "phunnies" in the final PDFs (such as the missing fonts
    issues), a bigger .tps file than the .ps file generated from directly
    printing to file, slower throughput in both the intermediate
    postscript file creation and actual distilling (probably tied in to
    the larger .tps file) and other differences from what the joboptions
    should have been.
    There should not have been any differences in the file sizes being
    created if the same printer instance/configuration was actually being
    used. I also see this on some automated runs with Miramo. It's not
    consistent either - sometimes it works fine and then the next run, the
    process is considerably slower and there are dropouts in the PDFs.
    So far, manually printing to a ps file and distilling always seems to
    work without any issues.
    Your mileage may vary.

  • Files are not deleted after auto export

    Hi folks,
    I am using Oracle UCM 11gPS6 in Redhat Linux 5 OS.I have set automatic export based on certain docType.While setting this export,I have marked "Delete files after revisions".

  • Firefox 8 upgrade file does not start after downloading it.

    I am using Firefox 3.0.19. I tried to download the .exe for firefox 8 in order to upgrade, but when I start the exe, the only window that pops up is asking if I want to run the upgrade under this user or another. When selecting my user (I have admin rights), the window closes and nothing happens.
    Do I first need to uninstall Firefox 3 ?
    And also, will my bookmarks be kept when upgrading (of course without first uninstalling ff 3). Or which file should I backup and where should I place it back?

    Do a clean (re)install and delete the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\).
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    * Firefox 8.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    Uninstall your current Firefox version if possible.
    *Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall the current version or you lose your bookmarks and other data in the profile folder.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    *It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    You may have to start the installer as administrator via the right-click context menu: Run as Administrator
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

    Do you have an EPS version of your file? You might be able to
    retrieve
    some parts of your work by opening that file in Illustrator
    or
    converting it to PDF format.

    Yes, I've been burned by this before. I've been requesting
    that Autosave
    and Autobackup be added options to Freehand since version 3
    or so
    because of how devastating this problem is. I actually had a
    small
    program to do autobackup for me for a while but it started to
    cause
    problems as the Mac OS was updated and I had to abandon it.
    So now I
    make sure to save multiple versions of large projects as I
    work.

    Only the individual that set the restrictions passcode knows what it is.
