Hello, I cleanup up a system, per the postings to not use HAL. k3b does not work, but, I'll look for a fix for it later.
I keep 2 kernels on this system. kernel-2.6.34-gentoo-r12 and kernel-2.6.36-gentoo-r5 the *36 does not work. I have copied it over from an identical system, build new kernels an still it fails with the verbiage listed in the title. I can go back and boot the old *34 kernel and all is fine. The system was updated on 3Feb2011. I've tried all sorts of things, but to no avail. Google indicates that it may be the x setup. Before the upgrade and elimination of hal the kernel-2.6.36-gentoo-r5 kernel worked just fine. Now if I build a new kernel, it does not work. somewhere in the removal of the use flag hal and the hald it has decidded not build a kernel-2.6.36-gentoo-r5 that will work, but boots and runs fine with older *34 gentoo stable kernel. I have no idea what to do. When the boot tails, it hard locks up so I have to reset power, boot the older kernel so there is no dmesg trail to look at. Reboot and Running: xorg-server-1.9.2 ati-drivers-10.11 xorg-x11-7.4-r1 kernel-2.6.34-gentoo-r12 with no hald all is fine? The old kernel was built with hal and hald running, if that makes a difference.....? Stumped James
