[Solved] Several problems after big update

hosage · 2011-04-18 23:27:42

Hello. Yesterday i made a pacman -Syu that upgraded many packages, after rebooting, i found out that many things got broken, like the keyboard, that got a strange keymap and i can't change it, at least not by the regular ways. Chromium doesn't start, file-roller gives a Gconf error, LibreOffice says that every document that i try to open is protected from editing by a unknown user, video streaming websites doesn't buffer any video and Firefox gives this error "There is not enough room on the disk to save /tmp/DMgQyMeY.part" when downloading .srt files (.rar files are downloaded with no error, but... empty) and the login (going from the login window to fully loaded desktop) is really slow.

I have been looking in pacman's log for packages that can push arch into widespread malfunctions when failling, but i'm kind of lost.

This is the log

already tried a kernel downgrade, and nothing. And i also tried downgrading xorg-server + xorg-common + evdev + fbdev + vesa and intel drivers... and the trackpad died. (re-updated and it's now ok)

This is not the first time that it happend. There was 2 "strikes" long ago with the same troubles, and one of them included an unconfigurable 600x800 resolution. Both times i didn't found out the cause and waited several weeks using windows until another full pacman -Syu upgrade fixed everything (yes... the coward way), but this time i need to fix it soon... and since it's turning into an habit, i want to know what to do the next time.

thats all, sorry for the long post. thanks.

pacman got upgraded according to your log. Did you do a pacman-db-upgrade as it tells you to followed by a pacman -Syy and pacman -Syu?

Its very important to pay attention to the instructions that pacman gives in order to keep your system in shape.

hosage · 2011-04-18 23:43:47

yes, i did.

Forgot to add, the session manager GUI isn't working also. After clicking on "shut down", nothing happens, and after clicking again, it gives an error.

Did you perform the pacman upgrade prior to the rest of the upgrade? The log records the upgrade at the same time as everything else.

"There is not enough room on the disk to save /tmp/DMgQyMeY.part"

You are positive that there is indeed enough free space on your root/home partitions?

No, pacman said something about a problem with some packages, so i said "no" when it asked if i wanted to update pacman first. Later, i made another update and pacman said that i should do a pacman-db-upgrade, and i did that.
Anyhow, the other times that i had this problems, there was no pacman update conflicts with other packages.

i think so, but im not sure about / because of this output

df -k
S.ficheros         Bloques de 1K   Usado    Dispon Uso% Montado en
udev                     10240       244      9996   3% /dev

/dev/sda5             34898052  22993176  10132108  70% /home

its spanish, usado = used and Dispon = Available

looks like / is actually full, or at least is readed as being full, it might be the cause of firefox not downloading files and not buffering videos right? both are stored in / ?.
And the de-compressed tmp files goes to / right? What about LibreOffice? is there any tmp file for it?

So, how can i free space on / without messing with some important stuff?

And there are still issues with chromium not loading , keyboard miss-configuration and GUI session manager not loading. Does / being full have something to do with it?

pacman -Sc

will remove all packages which are not installed on your system from the cache. That should give you some breathing room.

hosage · 2011-04-19 18:49:06

/ have now 1.4GB of free space, and everything is working. Including Chromium, the keyboard and the session manager GUI, looks like they actually use temp files or something like that from /.

Thanks to everyone.
