[SOLVED]qps no longer works after kernel upgrade

I'm not sure if this is right place for this. The error is rather self explanatory.

Qps: can't determine version, read 3.0-ARCH
please report this bug.

sounds like qps has not been adapted yet for the switch to linux 3 kernel .
please report this bug
Report it to upstream ?

[SOLVED]Sounds no longer works after kernel update (Audigy 4)

Updated kernel along with other updates. I have an audigy 4 (detected as audigy 2, always been that way).
It's detected if I do lspci, if I go in alsaconf it also detects it and says it should work, but if I then go in alsamixer it just comes up with my USB webcam sound mixer.
What am I doing wrong? I can't get any sound anymore and I don't even know how to start fixing it.
I also checked lsmod and the module was loaded (emu10k1), it should work, but it doesn't.
Any ideas?
Edit: Trying to launch MPD:

Speng, perhaps there are two sound devices on your system?.. What are the contents of /dev/snd/?
Efish, your issue is different, you've got a different card, right? And I don't get what the issue is, exactly. /etc/modprobe.d/*sound.conf?

Virtualbox no longer working after Kernel upgrade to 3.0

When I boot a Windows XP guest Virtualbox warns me: No audio devices could be opened. Selecting the NULL audio backend with the consequence that no sound is audible.
The guest is unable to start Windows, it throws me a blue screen which unfortunately flashes too quickly for me to see it. It doesn't boot in safe mode either.
I have recompiled vboxdrv with rc.d setup vboxdrv command (no errors) and loaded the vboxdrv with modprobe.
My system is upto date with pacman -Syu. My archlinux is 64 bit.

yes I performed the changes needed in menu.lst
I also have another archlinux guest with virtualbox. When I boot it, vbox also informs me about the missing audio devices but it runs ok.
Sound works fine in my host.

[SOLVED] Postgis no longer working after upgrade of postgresql

Dear all,
after yesterdays upgrade of postgresql-server and libs to 9.0.1 the postgis package does no longer work. When trying to import postgis.sql (version 1.5) it always complains about wrong libraries version:
psql:/usr/share/postgresql/contrib/postgis-1.5/postgis.sql:59: FEHLER: inkompatible Bibliothek »/usr/lib/postgresql/postgis-1.5.so«: Version stimmt nicht überein
I have double checked on postgresql and postgis documents that the versions should be compatible:
postgresql 9.0.1-2
postgresql-libs 9.0.1-2
postgis 1.5.1-1
For all databases dump and restore was fine, except for my gis databases. So upgrade from 8.4.4 to 9.0.1 worked in general.
Any ideas?

"Unfortunately" I did not have enough time to give it a try and rebuild the package.
So today I found that there is already a new version of postgis available which works perfectly fine!

[SOLVED]EasyStroke no longer works after upgrading Xorg....

Hi,
First i would just like to take the time to say, that ArchLinux kicks butt! I just joined the forum, but have been using Arch for about a month. Thus far, i have had very few problems....until tonight
I keep my system really up-to-date (almost everyday i update). Tonight, there was an update for Xorg (1.10? i think).
Anyway, One of the applications that i use is Easystroke - which after the upgrade has stopped working, i even recompiled it (which went fine) but still it doesnt work.
a more detailed explanation;
1. the app starts up fine, and appears to be working.
2. i draw a gesture on the screen, and i can see easystroke drawing them.
3. at this point the usually, i would stop drawing and easystroke would execute my gesture. but now instead, it doesn't properly release the gesture key (second button on my Wacom Bamboo stylus).
4. Easystroke has a "history page" that allows you to see how accurate your gestures are, now it shows absolutely nothing.
I have searched around with google, and no luck. I tried to get a more verbose output from easystroke, but it doesn't tell me anything. So, now i am kind of stuck
After the upgrade (and a reboot), i tested the system to see if there were other problems. So far, i have found zero.
I've tested my tablet, all of my main applications; Maya2011, Mypaint, gimp, Compiz++, Jackd, wine, etc. Everything is fine. I have also went through the log viewer, and nothing caught my eye that would hint to what has gone wrong....
if anyone else is having the same problem, or has a possible solution, please let me know.
I can deal with not using it for now, but not having Easystroke running, seriously hinders my workflow and navigation
on my Arch Desktop.... and now i am wondering whether or not easystroke even runs with the latest X???

Hello,
Welcome to the forums. Your post is fine in every way. Introduction, problem description, what you have done -- perfect. The package you reference is from the AUR which, as you know, is not in the main stream Arch distribution. These community contributions are essential Arch, but have their own area in the forum to differentiate them.
Moving this thread to AUR issues...
As it turns out. This isn't a bug in AUR/easystroke. It is a bug in the latest xserver 1.10.902 (found in the "extra" repo) Many applications are affected. Opera, chrome (if you are using the mouse gestures features for navigation) and it turns out that while i thought Maya wasn't affected, in reality, it is totally affected. most applications that use a mouse with right-clicks, middle clicks do not work properly.
it's an upstream bug, that affects all distributions using the latest Xorg. I am not filing a bug report, because as i understand it, this bug has already been reported upstream by Ubuntu-devs (on launchpad).
that latest update for Xserver, should have been tested better, before being an update available through pacman.
On my system, i do not use any testing repos, only core, extra, and community. I do this to avoid situations, just like this. lol.
I have work i need to get done today, but unfortunately, the only way that could happen is if i downgrade xserver (which i don't think is a smart idea). So, i guess i must wait for the next xserver update for arch. hopefully this happens in the next 24hours.
I suppose i will have to use OSX for now, until this is properly addressed and fixed.
anyway, i just wanted to point out that this bug has nothing to do (specifically) with Easystroke or AUR, that is just how i first noticed the bug. ( i just wanted to point that out, as you are a moderator ). This bug is in the main repos for Arch, and anyone updating today (or yesterday) will be affected, if they use applications where it's noticable.

Virtualbox no longer works after kernel update solved

and before you say.. read the wiki, use google, check the forums.. I DID..
here's the message i got
The VirtualBox Linux kernel driver (vboxdrv) is either not loaded or there is a permission problem with /dev/vboxdrv. Please reinstall the kernel module by executing
'/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup'
as root. Users of Ubuntu, Fedora or Mandriva should install the DKMS package first. This package keeps track of Linux kernel changes and recompiles the vboxdrv kernel module if necessary.
/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup: command not found <---i pasted it to prove ive googled, wiki'd, and read the forums.. so what did I miss
I did that command under my user name, sudo, and root.. said command not found.. when of course its found, it worked before 1.i used virtual box just before the kernel upgrade, 2. why isnt this command working under root or any other way?
i just finished setting up windows 7 with the few apps i like. please don't tell me i have to reinstall virtualbox and lose everything..
ive tried rebooting, loggin in and out a few times.. etc
any ideas??? why what the WIKI says does NOT work at all??
Last edited by binskipy2u (2010-08-18 21:30:09)

when you install virtualbox_bin package, pacman should have told you:
==> Run \`/etc/rc.d/vboxdrv setup\` as root every time your kernel is
==> upgraded, to compile the module for the new kernel version.
And yes, '/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup' is likely hardcoded in virtualbox and does not reflect how your distro setup is.
The Arch Way is to put service script to /etc/rc.d/ instead of /etc/init.d
also note that the vboxdrv service script from virtualbox_bin is different from other distros
and that /etc/rc.d/rc.vboxdrv isn't shipped by virtualbox_bin (hence you get command not found)
in additions, vboxdrv from virtualbox_bin has only "setup" function

Printing No Longer Working After Recent Upgrade

My printing suddenly stopped working after the latest upgrade (which upgraded the kernel from 2.6.15.2 to 2.6.15.4).
I discovered that arch is no longer auto-loading the parport_pc module. This is strange. If I run "hwdetect --show-modules", parport_pc is shown.
I do have MOD_AUTOLOAD="yes" in my rc.conf file.
The quick fix is to add "parport_pc" to the list of MODULES in rc.conf.
Are others having this problem?
Rob

I just read your post. I am sorry I could not join irc. I was actually at work. It is very hard for me to use irc at work. Firewalls make life difficult!
In any event, I think I solved the problem.
Please see http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?t=18747
Here is the complete post:
In my /etc/modprobe.conf file, there was the folloiwng line:
# Load lp support with parport_pc
install parport_pc modprobe -i parport_pc ; modprobe lp ; true
I believe that this line was in the original /etc/modprobe.conf file that came with arch 0.7. I don't remember ever adding it.
I commented out this line and I removed "parport_pc" from the list of MODULES to be loaded in /etc/rc.conf.
I rebooted and it worked. The modules lp, parport and parport_pc were all autoloaded at boot-up.
I should also note that right after the arch upgrade, I was experiencing CUPS daemon failure once and awhile at boot up. Somtimes cupsd loaded and sometimes it failed at boot up. Now it seems that cupsd loads reliably at every bootup. Problem solved!
The following are the remaining lines in my /etc/modprobe.conf:
# Load ppp-generic with modem drivers
install Intel536 modprobe -i Intel536 ; modprobe ppp-generic ; true
install Intel537 modprobe -i Intel537 ; modprobe ppp-generic ; true
install ltmodem modprobe -i ltmodem ; modprobe ppp-generic ; true
install ltserial modprobe -i ltserial ; modprobe ppp-generic ; true
install slamr modprobe -i slamr ; modprobe ppp-generic ; true
install slusb modprobe -i slusb ; modprobe ppp-generic ; true
# OSS Compatibility
#install snd-pcm modprobe -i snd-pcm ; modprobe snd-pcm-oss ; true
#install snd-seq modprobe -i snd-seq ; modprobe snd-seq-oss ; true
# --- BEGIN: Generated by ALSACONF, do not edit. ---

options isapnp=0 dma1=1 dma2=0 irq=5
# --- END: Generated by ALSACONF, do not edit. ---
The modem driver lines came with the original /etc/modprobe.conf file in arch 0.7.
Should I also comment them all out?
Perhaps I should only have the lines for my old ISA sound card in the /etc/modprobe.conf file. Please let me know.
Has there been a change in the kernel or udev which makes it neccesary to make all these changes in the /etc/modprobe.conf file?

Internet does not work after kernel upgrade...

I have been reading all of the other threads and have tried everything possible to downgrade my kernel to 2.6.26 rather then 2.6.27. I have found a package for kernel 2.6.26.2-1 and nvidia 173.14.12-2 but they do not mix and wont let me start x when i downgrade both of them. Is there some way i can get past this as not having internet is frustrating
Edit:
I have tried using this
echo 0 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_sack
echo 0 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_dsack
and it did not work, i have also tried downgrading dhcpcd and that didn't work so i'm assumin git is infact the kernel.
Edit again:
When downgrading both the kernel and nvidia with those two packages i found, my computer boots up fine up untill i get to the command line to type "startx". The i get this error message after typing "startx" :
Error: API mismatch: the nvidia kernel module has version 173.14.12, but thus nvidia driver component has version 177.80. Please make sure that the kernel module and all NVIDIA driver components have the same version.
After i got this i went and reinstall kernel 2.6.27 and the latest nvidia to look at the nvidia package i had installed. I extracted it and all the was in it was a hierarchy of folders "/lib/modules/2.6.26-ARCH/kernel/drivers/video/nvidia.ko" and that nvidia.ko file. Is it possible that i'm not installing the driver jsut a kernel module?
Once again... Edit lol:
Also i found a package for nvidia-utils and installed it with nvidia and the kernel and i can "startx", but it freezes everytime and i have to manually restart the computer with the reset button
Last edited by opeth115 (2008-10-19 22:03:56)

I use nvidia96xx legacy drivers with no trouble, so I'm not sure I'll be of much help. I did read the announcment that nvidia no longer supports a certain card/cards, and there is a new legacy driver in the repo. Maybe you need to be using that one?
Also, I wasn't effected with any issues with the new kernel, but I did have a small issue with dhcpcd shortly after the kernel upgrade. It kept failing when trying to connect to the Internet. It was a simple fix though. I compared my /etc/conf.d/dhcpcd with /etc/conf.d/dhcpcd.pacnew and there was a significant difference.
I was using the string....
DHCPCD_ARGS="-N -t 30 -h $HOSTNAME"
I just needed to change it to the string in dhcpcd.pacnew....
DHCPCD_ARGS="-q -L -t 30 -h $HOSTNAME"
Anyway, sorry if this doesn't help.

[SOLVED] Laptop freezes at startup after kernel upgrade to 3.13.6

Some days ago I got a new Dell Sputnik 3 Laptop and installed Arch Linux with UEFI Boot and gummiboot as bootloader. The installation was successful.
However two days ago there was an upgrade for the Linux Kernel from 3.13.5 to 3.13.6. When I restarted the Laptop after the upgrade of the kernel the Laptop freezed directly after pushing the power button (never got ahead of the initial DELL logo).
I ran the DELL hardware diagnostics to identify a possible damage of the SSD but everything was ok. Than I booted into a live system ad mounted the root partition and there was no problem work on it. Additionally I change the value of timeout in gummiboots loader.conf (it was commented out before). Since than I got the gummiboot boot menu at least. So narrowing down, I think something happened during the kernel upgrade. Unfortunately I have no clue what could it be since I am convinced that at the installation process some days before I did everything like it was described at the beginners guide so automatic gummiboot update had to be possible.
The drive is partitioned in the live system looks like this (look at sda):
├─sda1 8:1 0 512M 0 part /boot
└─sda2 8:2 0 235G 0 part /
fstab like this:
# /etc/fstab: static file system information
# <file system> <dir> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
# /dev/sda2
UUID=3f216fdb-f4c6-459a-856f-6f246d7a5bff / ext4 rw,relatime,data=ordered 0 1
# /dev/sda1
UUID=0F8F-2A3B /boot vfat rw,relatime,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=437,iocharset=iso8859-1,shortname=mixed,errors=remount-ro 0 2
# swap
/swapfile none swap defaults 0 0
I have and arch.conf in gummiboot looking like this:
title Arch Linux
linux /vmlinuz-linux
initrd /initramfs-linux.img
options root=/dev/sda2 rw
and the loader.conf of gumiboot looking like this:
timeout 5
default 56cccedc29f1418ab2d8f1762ea09471-*
Now, I don't know anymore how to proceed to identify the problem and hopefully solve it

looks like this issue might be the same:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=172961&p=1
If I find time I might try using an alternative to gummiboot to see if this works.
Update: There also seems to be a reopened bug report on this https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/33745

Forms HOST command no longer works after database upgrade from 10g to 11g

Hi,
After upgrading the database 10g to 11g the forms HOST command no longer works on Unix server. The form used to work fine prior the upgrade. I read all the threads I could find and did not see any solutions. Adding PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH does not work because it does not even run a basic shell script. (I saw this solution, adding PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH, in many questions / threads).
1. I wouldn't expect the database upgrade to be an issue, but it is the only change we had.
2. Note, 11g is Oracle Fusion Middleware which is quite a bit different than 10g.
I even tried the most basic commands like "echo" which is a build-in Unix command and there is no directory for it (ie. no /usr/bin - so variable PATH is irrelvent). i.e HOST('echo hi'); and HOST('echo "hi" '); and even HOST ('echo hi > /my_file.txt'); all returns FORMS_FAILURE (actually the if is IF FORM_SUCCESS THEN ... else ... and the else part always runs now - whereas it didn't before.).
Or basic commands like /usr/bin/ls as in HOST(/usr/bin/ls). At that point I was just testing the Unix command would return FORM_SUCCESS even though I could not see the results (because they weren't writing to a log file). Notice that I'm using the direct path /usr/bin so no Unix environment variables were needed.
The form does use webutil but that part works. For example, we have webutil_file_transfer( ....) The file shows up on the application server and in the expected directory.
Here's the main goal. Upload a file from clients local PC to the datebase server. The form uploads the file to the Application server, then we have a Unix script to scp (secure copy) the file from the application server to the database server. IF webutil, or any other Oracle functions could put the file on the database server that would be better. But, I don't know of any procedures that do that - or would have done it cleanly (i.e. storing to database and write back to server and then using a blob etc. )
Anyway, I was hoping someone would help with either of these.
1) Get the HOST command to work. - If we can get that to work then I wouldn't need any more help. We can just call the already existing Unix script to copy the file from the application server to the database.
2) OR be able to upload directly to the database server - wanted to do that originally
Any help would be appreciated

Solution for those interested and for anyone else searching this forum for a solution
I found this on My Oracle Support:
<h3>Host Command from Forms Not Working in 11g in Sun Solaris Sparc OS [ID 1157346.1]</h3>
Applies To: Oracle Forms - Version 11.1.1.1.0 and later
Sun SPARC Sun OS
Symptoms:
When trying to execute a Shell script or any OS command using the host() Built-in from Forms 11g, the host()command is not getting executed. The same functionality works on other operating systems and in previous versions like 10gR2.
Steps to be followed:
1) Take a backup and edit the $DOMAIN_HOME/config/fmwconfig/servers/WLS_FORMS/applications/formsapp_11.1.1/config/default.env or any custom environment file.
2) Locate the following environment variable:
LD_PRELOAD=/ora10gas/app/11.1.0/Middleware/as_1/jdk/jre/lib/sparcv9/libjsig.so
3) Comment out this variable. After the changes, it will look like the following:
#LD_PRELOAD=/ora10gas/app/11.1.0/Middleware/as_1/jdk/jre/lib/sparcv9/libjsig.so
3) a) Instead of LD_PRELOAD, kindly use LD_PRELOAD_64 as given below :
LD_PRELOAD_64=/ora10gas/app/11.1.0/Middleware/as_1/jdk/jre/lib/sparcv9/libjsig.so
(This makes HOST AND RUN_REPORT_OBJECT work fine).
4) Save the file and execute your forms. The Host() built-in will work as expected
The LD_PRELOAD setting in default.env is only required for the working of signal chaining facility in JVM version 1.5 and later. If you are not using theSignal chaining facility, this variable is not required. For more information, refer to the following documentation

Screen saver no longer working after Lion upgrade.

Hi,
After standard upgrade about 2 weeks ago (mid July 2012) the screen saver no longer works. I mean I can certainly access the application and the desktop can be made to cycle through different photos etc. But when I configure the screen saver it just refuses to go into screen saver mode at all.
I'm not seeing too much occurance of this through the postings which is a bit worrisome as I'd thought this would be a much wider issue.
Cheers,

ITunes no longer working after Song Upgrade.

I got onto iTunes store, was offered to upgrade 32 of my songs, I said "Yes". After the upgrading completed, iTunes main window pane no longer worked for anything but the iTunes store. It will play my music if I manually select it from the disk (via Finder) but does not seem to be able to display any of my playlists or my music library.
I am running Safari 3.0 (as an FYI).
Mac OS X 10.4.9 (on an intel mini).

Unfortunately uninstalling and reinstalling, or repairing the current copy of iTunes alone doesn't fix the problem....
Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.

Flashcards for screen brightness no longer work after BIOS upgrade

I have a Toshiba Satellite T135D/1320S laptop, and last night I upgraded the BIOS to v1.90 under the recently released recall notice. AFter installing the BIOS, however, the Flashcard brightness controls no longer work. Whenever I press FN-6 or FN-7, the screen brightness Flashcard pops up and the toggle on the slider bar moves back and forth, but the brightness of the screen does not change.
I have disabled and re-enabled the Flashcards as suggested in a separate forum, and I've also downloaded the most recent display driver (AMD display driver v8.615). Neither effort corrected the problem.
Anyone have any other suggestions?

Satellite T135D-S1320
Sometimes it helps to reset the machine. With the battery and AC adapter removed, close the Power switch for half-a-minute. Re-attach those, press the Power button to turn the computer on, and then immediately press the F2 key while the Toshiba logo is displayed. Press F9 to restore the BIOS default settings, press F10, and then select Yes (Exit Saving Changes). The computer will restart.
Another things to try is reinstalling the TVAP.
