My first ever attempt preupgrade; F12 to F14 I muddled through it and eventually able to boot F14: $ uname -r 2.6.35.13-91.fc14.i686.PAE
In general looks ok; I had to change hostname manually after booting F14. But, now, occasionally when starting emacs as root getting error:[root@f12 grub]# emacs grub.conf & [1] 3976 [root@f12 grub]# ** GLib-GIO:ERROR:gdbusconnection.c:2270:initable_init: assertion failed: (connection->initialization_error == NULL) ^C [1]+ Aborted (core dumped) emacs grub.conf [root@f12 grub]# sometimes emacs doesn't Abort instead following Warning: [root@f12 grub]# (emacs:4048): GLib-WARNING **: In call to g_spawn_sync(), exit status of a child process was requested but SIGCHLD action was set to SIG_IGN and ECHILD was received by waitpid(), so exit status can't be returned. This is a bug in the program calling g_spawn_sync(); either don't request the exit status, or don't set the SIGCHLD action. GConf Error: Failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash. See http://projects.gnome.org/gconf/ for information. (Details - 1: Failed to get connection to session: Abnormal program termination spawning command line `dbus-launch --autolaunch=894d3a077438c888999482d14bdb83d5 --binary-syntax --close-stderr': ) That is no help to me; my F14 stays up, network ok. (Those " [root@f12.." above, before I manually changed hostname.) Often emacs as root works with no sign of trouble. The preupgrade had some trouble late in packages install step, something "metadata repomd ...missing" I was able to find the upgraded fc14 vmlinuz,etc and then reboot to F14. Any advice? Is this evidence of serious trouble in my new f14? Jack
