[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 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.

  • 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!

  • 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?

    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?

  • 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.

    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.

  • I have a mac, would like to upgrade to mountain lion from mac os x, anybody experienced any problems after this upgrade, thanks

    i have a mac, would like to upgrade to mountain lion from mac os x, anybody experienced any problems after this upgrade, thanks

    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 installed iOS 5.0.1 on my Iphone 3GS. I never can not write in my calendar. Anyone else having this problem after their upgrade?

    I installed iOS 5.0.1 on my Iphone 3GS. I never can not write in my calendar. Anyone else having this problem after their upgrade?

    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.

    I think the spacing now is correct, while before it was wrong. The only "problem" is that you got used to a bad font rendering, and now that it has changed for better you feel like it's different and don't like it.
    Really, *most* of the problems that people find in Linux's fonts are just because they are used to the awful default fonts from Windows XP. Yes, people can even get used to those fonts and believe they're good!!! And when they see correct fonts in Linux they think they're bad...
    What I would do is remove the MS TTF fonts. They work bad in Windows and worse in Linux. You should use Bitstream Vera or DejaVu if you want good quality fonts (especially in web pages).
    But, then again, you might think that they look wrong just because you're not used to it... Oh, well...
    What does correct font / correct spacing mean ?
    IMO, that doesn't make any sense, because that's a totally subjective matter, like many other things in this world.
    BTW, I love how fonts look in Windows, and I think that must be the only thing MS got right. Thus, I'm using ms fonts in linux, and a rendering as close as possible (no autohinting or antialiasing or subpixel rendering).
    Similarly, I could find a woman beautiful that you would find ugly or just average. We are all different, and it's better that way

  • [SOLVED]Problem with logging in after system upgrade

    Hi,
    I'm encountering some problem after rebooting my machine just after last upgrade. Few minutes ago I was sure I found the source of the problem when system hang on "Reached target Graphical Interface" message. Reason - nvidia drivers had to be replaced with legacy version (https://www.archlinux.org/news/nvidia-340xx-and-nvidia/). But it didn't help. Also it made things a little bit worse. Because now my system uses nvidia-340xx and it seems drivers are fine but when login screen of lightdm should appear screens stay blank... and nothing happens. I simply can't do anything.
    What I noticed is also xfce4-session was upgraded (4.10.1.3->4.10.1-5) and maybe this is the separate problem? but I can't downgrade this package as some time ago I removed all contents of /var/cache/pacman/pkg.
    What I have is arch on pendrive so I can chroot into existing system.
    Any ideas?

    I found something similar to line
    (EE) Mar 07 14:05:07 NVIDIA(0): WAIT: (E, 0, 0x837d, 0)
    these values are not exact as I'm too tired now to rewrite the real ones from screen 
    maybe I should install some older nvidia drivers (these 340xx are broken somehow I think). Unfortunately I don't have my /pkg content anymore.
    Where can I download packages like nvidia-340.32-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz from? (according to pacman.log I had this version back in July and it was working fine I think).
    I could also start X with Nouveau drivers but not xfce (anyway I would like to install old nvidia drivers back)

    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

  • After Mavericks upgrade fonts on server appear as Unix executable files

    Hello:
    I upgraded two machines to Mavericks. An iMac and a Macmini both were running 10.8.  We store files and fonts on a Windows server.  Before the upgrade the fonts appeared as aspected on the server in the Finder, after the Mavericks upgrade they appeared as Unix executable files ( Only on the iMac ) the fonts display correctly on the MacMini. Both machines mount the server the same way and the fonts do work correctly if downloaded to the local machine.
    Anyone have an idea why they would appear correctly on one machine and not the other.
    appreciate any input.
    thanks,
    Rick

    Kurt is very likely right, but we need more info to try to fix it.
    Server details?
    What version of Mac OS X can view the fonts?
    What protocol do they use?
    What protocol do you use?
    If they connect to the server with a different protocol from you (eg, AFP vs SMB), try switching to the same protocol. That may very well not solve the problem, but it's the first step.

  • Application server problem after upgrade from 4.6C to ECC 6.0

    Hi all,
    We have recently upgraded our test server form 4.6C to ECC 6.0.
    In one of the programs we are using open dataset to write files to
    application server. This particular folder had been mapped through "Map Network
    Drive function" in windows. The path we have given in the program
    as "<Drive>:\<Folder>\File Name".
    Code :
    <b>DATA : zdsnb(45).
    ZDSNB = 'R:\SAPPayroll\zpaysheet.prn'
    OPEN DATASET zdsnb IN TEXT MODE.</b>
    In 4.6C this particular format was reading without any problem. But
    after the upgrade, system is throwing an error "File cannot be read".
    We have checked the NTFS share rights and rights for the mapped drive.
    It's "Everyone" full access.
    Our OS: Windows 2003 server 64 bit
    Database : MS SQL 2005 64 bit.
    Most of HR related testing is based on this access. Pl suggest a
    solution, so that we can go ahead with our testing and upgrade of other
    servers.
    Regards,
    Adeeb

    Am a little confused by which way your slashes are going, but if they're Ok try adding phrases below.
    open dataset p_uxfile <b>for input</b> in text mode <b>encoding default</b>.
    Best!

  • Hard disk problems after full upgrade [SOLVED]

    After a full upgrage (pacman -Suy) last monday, My system denied to boot:D:D:D:D:D.
    So to fix it I have to go to /boot/grub/menu.list and change from hda3 to sda3. Everything seems to be Ok but when the system is booting and scan the the hard disk to check bad, It drops me to the shell with the error that there is something wrong with my hard disk and it suggest me to set the superblock to 8139.
    So to fix it I boot my PC from Arch live CD, use the following command:
    #fsck.ext3 -c -f /dev/sda3
    #fsck.ext3 -b 8139
    Everything seems to be Ok, there is no bad in my hard disk.
    When I boot my system again, I got the same error again, I came back to live CD, check the hard disk, set the superblock as It told me and again, I got the error when I boot from the hard disk.
    This is the second PC with the same error.
    Three months ago, I upgraded my Server and got exactly the same problem. Because this is the server, I need it run ASAP, so I modified the rc.sysinit script so that the system will not check my hard disk when It boots. :P:P. And my Server can run without any problems since then.
    I don't have time much to spend on this error and my PC is in the Lab now so I can't provide the detail of the error until next Monday. Sorry for that.
    Any idea how to fix this error?
    Cheers.

    :D:D I am a kind of lazy guy so when I did pacman -Suy, I just leave it running without reading information on the terminal.
    milan wrote:I guess you didn't change entries in /etc/fstab (hda->sda).
    Yes, you are right. I changed from hda to sda in /boot/grub/menu.lst but I forgot to do the same in /etc/fstab files. On Monday I will check again if it is set correctly or not
    :D:D. I have just taken a quick look into the fstab file in my Server, The One with the same problem three months ago, and the fstab file is set correctly with sda partitions. I don't want to touch this server again or my services will be down. So this seems not the correct solution, but anyway, I will take a look at it next week.
    Thanks for your replies.
