KDE fails to start after updating the system
have suse 9.3 complete installed and after a few months working on it and messing around, i learned alot already hhihi .... BUT, here it comes :
after i updated the linux system online trough yast (all packages availble ),then i rebooted the pc and it doesnt start to work , meaning... it doesnt start the KDE 3.4 . and i get a screen with a grey look and a prompt for user and passwrd . i can't login it gives me erros about the following : {{{ i made thank god a backup of the system with the yast wizzard eheheh but i dont know how to restore it }}} anyway as i was saying the error apears is the following error in the small yellow LOG box in the screen: //----------------------- console log for linux jul 25 01:32:10 jul 25 01:32:10 linux syslog-nh[3225]: changing permissions on special file /dev/tty10 jul 25 01:32:10 linux kernel: snd_cs4231_lib: unsupported module tainting kernel. jul 25 01:32:20 linux kernel: snd_cs4236_lib: unsupported module tainting kernel. jul 25 01:33:10 linux mDNSResponder: Duplicate registration of DNS for Domain. jul 25 01:34:10 linux kernel: end_request: i/o error, dev fd0,sector 0 jul 25 01:35:10 linux kernel: end_request: i/o error, dev fd0,sector 0 jul 25 01:36:10 linux ifup: no configuration found for sit0 and so on and so on if i could restore the system trough failsafe or just normal boot what works . then i could return the state of the machine to an earlier time b4 the updates... i have the idea that the kernel is updated or whatever but i am 100% it comes trough the update i did. anyway one some sugesstions? |
If you can get to a prompt, either with the log-in box or by hitting Ctrl+Alt+F2, you can type yast and use it from the command prompt to get to the recovery section.

restore didnt work :((
unfortently it didnt work , i was able to restore the system but the errors keep exist.
i have a problem with the CUBS , connection refused at localhost.. thats the bigest problem.. i am thankfull that you where able to help me but i am still stuck :( |
It's CUPS (common unix printing system), and it is used for printing. Have you tried to reinstall CUPS or check the config files. Your config files should have a "~" at the end for the last saved one before any changes. Also as root at a command prompt check the logs at /var/log/error...
