zibi1981 Posted January 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2007 (edited) Well, it looks like I'll have to try to compile a new kernel, althought I'm expecting many other issues to emerge. Especially considering that I'm using ATI drivers. On the forums, to which You gave a link, someone has written that Using these kernels may be a problem if you are using the non-xorg (fglrx etc) drivers But if this is the only way to resolve this very irritating problem, I'll try. Today my Mandriva hang up 4 or 5 times in a row on "Setting hostname localhost :"... :angry2: Edited January 28, 2007 by zibi1981 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AussieJohn Posted January 29, 2007 Report Share Posted January 29, 2007 I'll bet you did not check check the current errata . This problem has already been posted in Mandriva and the work around that I personally developed for the problem is here in Mandriva users and even recommended by Mandriva for the interum. Just do a little search here for it. If you can't find it then come back and I will track it for you. When you read it take particular note of what I said about the grub bootloader setup. Cheers. John. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zibi1981 Posted February 3, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2007 You mean the problem with booting up or fglrx drivers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helmut Posted February 3, 2007 Report Share Posted February 3, 2007 @zibi1981 I have the exact same MB, but none of these problems with Mandriva 2007 Free. Helmut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zibi1981 Posted February 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2007 Well, my problem did appear first when I installed Mandriva Free 2007. Before that, I never had it with Power Pack... Funny thing. Guided by some suggestions, that this problem occurs because of some "USB issues", I disconnected my GamePad, which is a USB device. And since then the problem didn't come out. Nonetheless I still want to compile a new kernel to optimize my OS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
