Re: Kernel 2.4.19-pa6 - can't login.
Close, I am not seeing it time out to another login prompt, it just hangs.
My top display also stops running. Also, on a reboot it won't come back to
the prompt, it will freeze after it loads up HIL. The last lines I get are:
Ext3-fs: INFO: recover required on readonly filesystem.
Ext3-fs: write access will be enabled during recovery.
HIL KEYB: HIL keyboard found (did = 0xdf, lang = english.us)
input0: HIL keyboard on hil0
kenrel BUG at slab.c:1130!
HIL PTR: HIL pointer device found (did: 0x68, axis: relative)
HIL PTR: HIL pointer has 3 buttons and 1 sets of 2 axes
input1: HIL mouse on hil0
In order to get past this I boot into a earlier kernel, and boot back. I
am wondering if it has something to do with the EXT3 recovery. One thing I
notice on booting the old kernel is :
kernel: EXT3-fs: INFO: recovery required on readonly
filesystem.
kernel: EXT3-fs: write access will be enabled during
recovery.
kernel: kjournald starting. Commit interval 5 seconds
kernel: EXT3-fs: recovery complete.
kernel: EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data
mode.
kernel: VFS: Mounted root (ext3 filesystem) readonly.
kernel: Freeing unused kernel memory: 384k freed
kernel: Adding Swap: 125236k swap-space (priority -1)
kernel: EXT3 FS 2.4-0.9.17, 10 Jan 2002 on sd(8,19), internal journal Aug
30 09:58:46 x5 kernel: mice: PS/2 mouse device common for all mice
Aug 30 09:58:46 x5 kernel: eth0: link ok.
There is no message for kjournald on the newer kernel, on an unclean
reboot. now do I get the message for a clean reboot.
Thanks for looking into this...
