Re: [lubuntu-users] lenovo_wmi or acer_wmi for Lenovo laptops (64bit)
With a new Linux kernel this week, Lubuntu failed to boot sometimes. When it happened this morning, I read the entire system log. It looks as though the acer_wmi problem may have been a red herring which covered up the real problem: Windows 10 did not shut down properly. Here are some interesting excepts from the system log: If ACPI driver is available, use instead of native driver Loaded firmware version 39.31.5.1 build 35138 op_mode iwldvm acer_wmi: Acer Laptop ACPI-WMI Extras acer_wmi: Unsupported machine has AMW0_GUID1, unable to load The disk contains unclean file system (0,0) Metadata kept in Windows cache, refused to mount Failed to mount '/dev/sda6': Operation not permitted. The NTFS partition is in an unsafe state. Please resume and shutdown Windows fully (no hibernation or fast restarting), or mount the volume read-only with the 'ro' mount option. mnt-d.mount: Mount process exited, code=exited, status=14 Failed to mount /mnt/d. Unit mnt-c.mount has failed. When I installed Lubuntu 16, I specified: mount partitions 4 and 6 C:Win 10 Pro on /mnt/c D:Data on /mnt/d Richard H.

Though hopefully it is simply a bug in the MS Insider Preview which they will fix, rather than a strange new feature. -- Regards -- Lubuntu-users mailing list Lubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/lubuntu-users
Re: [lubuntu-users] lenovo_wmi or acer_wmi for Lenovo laptops (64bit)
I'm now convinced the system clock resetting to London (UTC) time is not a CMOS battery problem. Other people are complaining about this Insider Preview problem on the Microsoft Feedback Hub.

Finding the modules was the key to answering my questions. I found the same two modules (acer-wmi.ko and hid-lenovo.ko) and lsmod | egrep 'wmi | lenovo' gives: wmi24576 2 wmi_bmof,ideapad_laptop In answer to your questions: I used unetbootin to create a live Lubuntu 16.04.3 on flash drive. I assumed that unetbootin checked the md5sum. I executed Lubuntu "Software Updater". I decided to try re-installing. I am now on release 4.13.0-26-generic, which is the same release that failed previously. This time I see no problems. My conclusion is that I previously had a corrupted kernel. The clock gives London time on Windows and Los Angeles time on Lubuntu. I'll check cmos battery. Richard H.
