[Solved] Modules not found at boot after upgrading to [testing]

Hello, I upgraded to [testing] repo a few days ago to rid myself of hal from xorg-server. Anyways, this also updated my kernel and other packages, and immediately after the upgrade I rebooted to see these errors:

done.

These occur immediately after GRUB boot and are persistent at each boot. I've been looking into it but the only problem I can find that seems to relate is this one, although I am not using an Nvidia chipset/card. I am having a similar modprobe error, though if I run it at root instead of user I have no error. However, I am running x86_64 as in the linked post, and it is instead searching x86 as far that goes:

$ modprobe acpi
FATAL: Error inserting acpi_cpufreq (/lib/modules/2.6.34-ARCH/kernel/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/acpi-cpufreq.ko): Operation not permitted

The boot errors do not seem to hinder much of anything, however. Boot is still successful, I can log in, start X, etc. acpi command still works, as does sound and my pc speaker. I just thought I might be able to get some help here (or elsewhere) on fixing these errors.

You know that there is an repository called [xorg18]

you dont need to upgrade to [testing] to get rid of HAL in case of X.Org

Vamp898 - the xorg18 repo is no longer in use, and hasn't been since the end of April. See Arch news for details.

epsilon - nothing specific to suggest, but the errors appear to come from your initramfs image. Try regenerating it with mkinitcpio - or just reinstall the kernel package, which will include the image regeneration.

I tried regenerating it (sudo mkinitcpio -p kernel26 ) and I think it got even more errors, this time some regarding input. Again, though, everything seems to be behaving normally. I looked at the /etc/mkinitcpio.conf, and no modules are specified. The only array specified are hooks:

HOOKS="base udev autodetect pata scsi sata filesystems"

schivmeister · 2010-06-17 02:05:01

Boot with the failsafe image, which should have all possible modules included. All that needs to be done during this process is to load the modules needed to initiate the hard disk controller and then read from the filesystem.

Unfortunately, that is not what you're facing. It looks to me like hardware incompatibility, possibly the cpufreq module. Paste your lspci, rc.conf and mkinitcpio.conf and hope for further assistance. It will also be good if you could include the output of mkinitcpio -p kernel26 and mkinitcpio -vp kernel26 (pastebin this one; it'll be very long).

rc.conf: http://omploader.org/vNG5ydA

mkinitcpio -p kernel26: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/226361/
mkinitcpio -vp kernel26: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/226362/

Should be solved on next testing update of mkinitcpio: http://projects.archlinux.org/mkinitcpi … a2577c613e

Yep, solved.
