init 3 problems: xorg spikes to 100% cpu
by Justin Conover
Does anyone have the same problem as I do?
Running *init 3* from gnome-terminal, sends Xorg to 100% cpu utilization and
never drops to init 3.
Fix, ssh from another box and reboot.....

Reading boot messages on the fly
by Jay Cliburn
I've been experimenting with different methods for reading messages that scroll
by rapidly during boot. Several days ago on fedora-list, Dave Jones advised
someone to use boot_delay=500 on the kernel command line to introduce a delay
between boot messages. I tried this, and it works really well to a point,
however once the kernel frees init memory, something happens and the scroll
speed returns to normal (which is very, very fast).
powernow-k8: 0 : fid 0xa (1800 MHz), vid 0x6
powernow-k8: 1 : fid 0x2 (1000 MHz), vid 0x12
ACPI: (supports S0 S3 S4 S5)
Freeing unused kernel memory: 212k freed <-------- Last "slow" message
Losing some ticks... checking if CPU frequency changed.
Write protecting the kernel read-only data: 477k
input: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard as /class/input/input0
USB Universal Host Controller Interface driver v3.0
I'm most interested in seeing which modules are loaded by initrd, and when using
boot_delay these are printed _after_ the transition to high speed message
printing. (Moreover, the lines "Loading module foo.ko" don't even show up in
dmesg.) Things improve a bit if I add vga=791 or vga=794 to the kernel command
line, which results in more than 25 vertical lines per page, but the "loading
module" lines still scroll off too quickly.
What are some methods you use for viewing boot messages? (assume the system is
broken and you can't login to it)
Thanks,
Jay

X doesn't work under kernel-2.6.18-1.2726.fc6xen
by parta
Hi
I updated FC6T3 with the most recent upadates available. This installed
2.6.18-1.2726.fc6xen
Under this new kernel my X doesnt work. It exits with the following error
(EE) I810(0): No Video BIOS modes for chosen depth.
(II) UnloadModule: "i810"
(II) UnloadModule: "ddc"
(II) Unloading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/libddc.so
(II) UnloadModule: "int10"
(II) UnloadModule: "int10"
(II) UnloadModule: "vgahw"
(II) Unloading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/libvgahw.so

(II) Unloading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/libvbe.so

(II) Unloading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/libint10.so
(EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration.
Fatal server error:
no screens found
It works perfect for the corresponding bare kernel 2.6.18-1.2726.fc6
It also works all right with the old xen kernel 2.6.18-1.2699.fc6xen

Re: repo madness
by Tom Horsley
> The question is if that yum bug is present in FC6 or not...
It sure seems to be - in fact, one of the things I noticed last
night with both repos enabled was that the primary.xml.gz
file in the yum cache for extras was bit for bit identical
to the one in the cache for devel, which sure seems like
it means yum downloaded the info from the wrong repo.
When I did wget's of the baseurl/repodata/primary.xml.gz
files manually for each repo, I got different files.

I tried that, but it looks as if the master repo has a primary.xml.gz file
that is woefully incomplete compared to the actual directory contents.
I think the mirrors are in sync, but they are synced with trash (or were
last night when I was looking at it in detail :-).

Yep. Just did that a little while ago. I was finally able to get some extras installed
by doing one repo at a time (kind of painful when things in extras depend on
things in core though :-).

Ah-HA! So it isn't that the repo is corrupt, but that yum is picking up the wrong
primary.xml.gz file. Thanks - I'll try doing one repo at a time tonight.

rsync --delete broken?
by Steven Haigh
Hi all,
I've been trying to figure this out for a while, but haven't had much success.
I'm wanting to backup a few directories on a server to another machine
and I'm using:
rsync -vaz --delete user@host:/path /path
In theory, this should delete any files on the local machine that
don't exist on the source. This doesn't seem to work however.
If I do an rsync, create a file on the sender, rsync again, the file
copes across. If I delete this file from the sender, and rsync again,
the file still remains on the local machine.
Is there something I'm doing wrong here?
