#479: Garbage in /var/lib/dbus/machine-id -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Reporter: [email protected] | Owner: free Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: normal | Milestone: 3.0 Component: build | Version: Severity: blocker | Resolution: worksforme Keywords: | -------------------------------+--------------------------------------------
Comment(by [email protected]): I think I found the culprit. /var/lib/dbus/machine-id is not created during installation. It gets created during the first boot. But on my system, the boot sequence ends with gdm trying to start X and totally freezing the system, since I'm the lucky owner of a Radeon X1300 RV515 video card! At that time, the file holds uncommitted data. I managed to install without this problem, still using jfs. I suggest patching /etc/init.d/gdm so it issues a sync command before doing anything. This should save part of the trouble to those with badly supported video cards. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.64studio.com/64studio/ticket/479#comment:2> 64 Studio <http://trac.64studio.com/64studio> _______________________________________________ 64studio-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.64studio.com/mailman/listinfo/64studio-devel
