issue with 3.19 update [solved]

Hi

I just installed 2 weeks ago an arch3.18.6 from iso, it worked fine until I decided to upgrade to the last kernel linux-3.19.2-1.

my config :
- syslinux
- system encryption dm-crypt/LUKS
- gdm
- netctl with ifplugd, no wifi for the moment

At reboot, network doesn't start and screen is blinking 4 or 5 times, then it stay blocked trying to start graphical session.

I can start again in rescue mode, adding

systemd.unit=rescue

at the boot command. There are no module and driver loaded for ethernet and video cards.

I can downgrade the kernel to 3.18.6 using pacman -U against local cache.

here is the result of lspci -v for video and internet :

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller (rev 09) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
        ...
        Kernel driver in use: i915
	Kernel modules: i915

00:19.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82579LM Gigabit Network Connection (rev 04)
	...
	Kernel driver in use: e1000e
	Kernel modules: e1000e

any idea ?

thanks

Nico

How did you do this?  Did you use do a full system upgrade?  If so, can you post your pacman logs?

That hardware should be very well supported.  The only thing I can imaging that would cause this is if you did a partial upgrade.

Re: issue with 3.19 update [solved]

Full system upgrade

pacman -Syu

, BUT.... I tried to install before that vmware player, which needs linux-headers. And the version of linux headers that I installed via pacman was 3.19.2-1, while the kernel was 3.18.6. That was probably a stupid thing to do...

After that, I tried to reinstall the same version linux kernel / linux headers, but I didn't find the right headers. (3.18.6).

here are the logs :

[2015-03-20 15:58] [PACMAN] Running 'pacman -R linux-headers'

If I didn't miss the point wehre you reinstalled linux-headers you don't have them right now. Installing linux-headers might solve the problem.

Also, don't do this:

 pacman -Sy <package>

You are very likely to brake something.

Re: issue with 3.19 update [solved]

I tried to reinstall the kernel after having installed headers. But it causes the same problem. But I can't find the proper version for my headers. Here is the situation now :

# pacman -Q linux-headers
linux-headers 3.19.2-1
# uname -r 
3.18.6-1-ARCH
# pacman -Q linux
linux 3.18.6-1

do yo think I can try a Pacman -Syu ?

ps :

Also, don't do this:

pacman -Sy <package>

You are very likely to brake something.

why ? I thought "y" made just a refresh ?

Please do a `pacman -Syu`, reboot, then try the same diagnostics.

Re: issue with 3.19 update [solved]

allright, understood, thanks for the answers.

so, here's what I juste did (problem not solved) :

# pacman -Syu

# reboot

result : same problem : blinking 4 or 5 times, wait for the netctl-ifplugd subsystem, and block trying to reach target graphical interface
then reboot with systemd.unit=rescue

# pacman -Q linux-headers
linux-headers 3.19.2-1
# pacman -Q linux
linux 3.19.2-1
# uname -r 
3.18.6-1-ARCH

see that uname -r and pacman query display a different result. :-\

#lspci -v | more

result : no video and ethernet drivers

 pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/linux-3.18.6-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz 
reboot

and it works with the old kernel

# pacman -Q linux-headers
linux-headers 3.19.2-1
# pacman -Q linux
linux 3.18.6-1
# uname -r
3.18.6-1-ARCH

Re: issue with 3.19 update [solved]

Is your /boot properly mounted? Show us what file do you have there e.g.

$ file /boot/vmlinuz-linux 
/boot/vmlinuz-linux: Linux kernel x86 boot executable bzImage, version 3.19.2-1-ARCH (builduser@tobias) #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Mar 18 16:3, RO-rootFS, swap_dev 0x3, Normal VGA
