[Bug 238789] Re: kernel 2.6.24-19
Dear Giovanni, thank you for reporting this bug and helping make Ubuntu better. Ok, so you can boot with kernel version 2.6.24-18 but not 2.6.24-19. We are going to need to know the hardware included in your system, and any error messages the kernel issues. Booting the working -18 kernel, please run the following 4 commands, and attach the resulting files. * uname -a uname-a.log * cat /proc/version_signature version.log * dmesg dmesg.log * sudo lspci -vvnn lspci-vvnn.log It would also help to know any error messages from the -19 kernel. In /boot/grub/menu.lst, you don't need to comment out the -19 kernel, just change the default option (right at the top) from 0 (1st kernel in the list) to probably something like 2, which should be the -18 kernel (3rd in the list). Then try booting the -19 kernel without the quiet and splash options, and tell us any error messages you see (taking a screenshot with a digital camera, or even writing them down by hand and typing them in here is also fine...

Ok, don't worry, it just means your giovanni account doesn't have administrative priviledges... Now, the commands you just ran should have created 4 files in your home directory (uname-a.log, version.log, dmesg.log and lspci-vvnn.log).

[Bug 238789] Re: kernel 2.6.24-19
The system setup seems pretty normal: Dual core Intel CPU, Intel ICH5 southbridge, AC97 audio, Ati Radeon graphics, Realtek 8139 ethernet. The only suspicious item is the TI ACX111 wifi, which needs the acx100 driver. A lot of bugs related to acx reported: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/+bugs?field.searchtext=acxorderby=-datecreated However, non seem serious enough to make a system unbootable. Giovanni, your latest comment is not clear: do you mean that update manager and synaptic package manager have disappeared from the system menu? Also, can you check if your wifi card works with the -18 kernel? What about the microphone? Finally, I am going to need you to try booting the -19 kernel (without the 'quiet' and 'splash' options) and tell me the error messages of the kernel log... ** Changed in: linux-meta (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) = Dimitrios Symeonidis (azimout) -- kernel 2.6.24-19 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/238789 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 238789] Re: kernel 2.6.24-19
To me it seems that a lot of things went wrong during your last update. There's something wrong with sudo... First of all, run 'id' and see if your account is part of the 'admin' group. Also, try running: dpkg --configure -a See if this fixes anything. You could also try: sudo aptitude update (this will update your package list) and then sudo aptitude full-upgrade In the meantime, check if the -19 kernel is there: check if the file /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.24-19 exists.

Dear Giovanni, it seems your account is a very limited one; you are a member of only 2 groups. Take for example the output of my 'id' command: uid=1000(azimout) gid=1000(azimout) groups=4(adm),20(dialout),21(fax),24(cdrom),29(audio),30(dip),44(video),46(plugdev),104(scanner),108(lpadmin),110(admin),115(netdev),117(powerdev),1000(azimout),1002(usrp) You should at least add your account to the admin group, by running: 'sudo usermod -a -G admin giovanni' I see that dpkg finished fine, so that was not the problem. Can you run 'ls /boot bootdir.log' and attach the resulting bootdir.log file here? I'm curious about the installed kernels... What would also be interesting is the contents of /lib/modules and /lib/firmware Kalispera ** Summary changed: - kernel 2.6.24-19 + Upgrade to kernel 2.6.24-19 renders system unbootable -- Upgrade to kernel 2.6.24-19 renders system unbootable https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/238789 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
