[SOLVED] Fuse and Network missing with Kernal 3.15.7-1

Hi guys,

I updated to Kernel 3.15.7-1 today and found that the system was unable to mount my NTFS volumes or use the ens32 Ethernet adapter.

Downgrading to 3.15.5-2 fixed that right away, I did try mkinitcpio -p linux but that did not work, only a downgrade worked.

I am running on VMWare ESXi 5.5.

Any ideas?
Thanks,

Maybe it's the same problem as with https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=184899 ?

Did you reboot your machine?

I rebooted several times,

Only network adapter that showed was lo, and the NTFS driver was not seeing fuse.

Everything works fine for me (c).

1) Check your journal. Search for any fuse/network messages. Check any errors or other 'weird' things.
2) Check that your files are not corrupted. Is there any way to check that files in filesystem are the same as in the package files?
3) Check your filesystem with fsck.

Re: [SOLVED] Fuse and Network missing with Kernal 3.15.7-1

Well here is from when I was trying to mount it

mount[164]: fuse: device not found, try 'modprobe fuse' first

and for the network device.

systemd[1]: Timed out waiting for device sys-subsystem-net-devices-ens32.device.
systemd[1]: Expecting device sys-subsystem-net-devices-ens32.device...

I'll have to have a another jab at it tomorrow.

Sorry I am new to Arch so still learning.

yep, lsmod shows fuse missing, on the new kernel, its there on 3.15.5-2
same with e1000 for the network adapter.

but I do see them referenced in /lib/modules/3.15.7-1-ARCH/
when I say decompress the e1000 .ko file it wont install "Invalid module format"
same with fuse.

Maybe a recompile from src is needed for me.

Re: [SOLVED] Fuse and Network missing with Kernal 3.15.7-1

... why are you trying to decompress the modules?

You already got some advice in your error message above i.e. "try 'modprobe fuse' first" - did you do that? And 'modprobe e1000' too, of course.

Check dmesg for clues after modprobing.

Well now I know that's how they are ment to be,

What dmesg give me is
disagrees about version of symbol module_layout

Re: [SOLVED] Fuse and Network missing with Kernal 3.15.7-1

Probably related story with me. After today's upgrade of Xorg, wireless network disappeared:

[root@fMac log]# wifi-menu
Invalid interface specification

Format error with wireless driver wl from  broadcom-wl package from AUR:

[root@fMac log]# modprobe wl
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'wl': Exec format error

And finally, similar message to previous post:

[root@fMac log]# dmesg | grep wl
[    4.915687] wl: disagrees about version of symbol module_layout
[    5.071274] wl: disagrees about version of symbol module_layout

Might be similar, but not the same. The latest kernel upgrade requires you to rebuild out of tree binary modules. The OP is talking about modules included in the kernel tree.

Toje, what's the output of uname -r and pacman -Q linux?

Toje, what's the output of uname -r and pacman -Q linux?

The output makes me look like an idiot,

After I compiled the kernel this morning from source and rebooted it told me I was running 3.15.7-1, but when I ran a uname -r for shits and giggles it passed back 3.15.5-2.

Turns out the problem was with my boot partition, and not with the Kernal.

My root partition had its own /boot with the 3.15.5-2 kernel image and a syslinux folder, I had to remove the contents of that folder and reinstall the bootloader, once done the system booted 3.14.7-1 and everything worked correctly.

My wife was wondering why I was busy in bed this morning. I'll mark it as solved, for me anyway.

Not solved for me. Moving the post into upgrade problems.
