Re: [SOLVED] Failed to start Load Kernel Modules.

Here is my cpuinfo. I'm running on a Dell optiplex 7010. I don't have access to any other computers that are running either Linux or Nvidia. Is there anything I can do without having to switch to another distro like Debian or Fedora ?? Could I maybe even rollback the necessary packages & then hold them to stop them from being updated ??

If you're not already doing so and you have the knowledge on how to do it, I would highly recommend running more than one distro on your computer so that you always have a fallback for situations like this. Rolling releases can break sometimes, so it's good to have a fallback. I run Debian Stable and Debian Unstable in addition to Arch Linux on both of my computers.

I thought about doing this in the past, but never really got into it. I recently installed ventoy on a usb though & it's amazing. Yesterday I literally just forgot that I had it sitting in the other room....

Re: [SOLVED] Failed to start Load Kernel Modules.

I don't have neither pahole nor nvidia gpu, but I have the same problem: 'Failed to load kernel modules' on system startup. Although it's been happening for ~2 weeks now and doesn't seem to affect the system in any capacity, I'm still a bit worried

Re: [SOLVED] Failed to start Load Kernel Modules.

You have some file in /etc/load-modules.d or similar that references some module that can't be loaded.

If this is insufficient to help you, please open a new thread with exact details. Closing this old solved thread.
