Gnome fallback mode and no sound after upgrade of udev

Hi,

I use gnome-shell. After the upgrade of udev and mkinitpcio today, gnome wants to start in fallback mode only and I cannot have any sound.

Here are the relevant lines (as far as I know) given by lspci :
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI RV635 [Mobility Radeon HD 3650]
01:00.1 Audio device: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI RV635 HDMI Audio [Radeon HD 3600 Series]

I use the free ati driver xf86-video-ati.

Thanks for your help

I have the same issue after update but my hardware is:

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 18)

Re: Gnome fallback mode and no sound after upgrade of udev

I can't comment on gnome, but I also have the sound problem. aplay -l reports "no sound cards"

lspci | grep -i audio

00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset High Definition Audio (rev 05)
01:00.1 Audio device: NVIDIA Corporation High Definition Audio Controller (rev a1)

modules seem to be loaded just fine:

lsmod | grep snd

snd_hda_codec_hdmi     24240  4 
snd_hda_codec_realtek   113642  1 
snd_hda_intel          23631  4 
snd_hda_codec          92950  3 snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_codec_realtek,snd_hda_codec_hdmi
snd_hwdep               6389  1 snd_hda_codec
snd_pcm                74812  3 snd_hda_codec,snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_codec_hdmi
snd_page_alloc          7153  2 snd_pcm,snd_hda_intel
snd_timer              19544  1 snd_pcm
snd                    59858  15 snd_timer,snd_pcm,snd_hwdep,snd_hda_codec,snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_codec_realtek,snd_hda_codec_hdmi
soundcore               6210  1 snd

downgrading to udev 181 fixes it.

Re: Gnome fallback mode and no sound after upgrade of udev

I think these are two different issues. I also lost my network applet on gnome, but it came back after downgrading consolekit.

On the other hand, I downgraded udev to 181 and mkinitcpio to 0.8.6 and it still does not work.

Please try with consolekit-0.6.4-2, it should be fixed now (see arch-general for more details about what happened, if you are interested).

It works !

Finally, the responsible for this trouble is udev, that should be downgraded to 181-9.

Thanks for your help.

Re: Gnome fallback mode and no sound after upgrade of udev

I upgraded to the new version of udev (182-2) was available and I thought that it would solve the problem.

Now I am still in fallback mode and I needed to downgrade initscripts to downgrade udev.

Should I report a bug ?
