Tobias, all,
After further testing with kernel 2.6.32.4-1, I have found two bugs:
(1) the kernel upgrade kills WindowMaker
(2) the kernel upgrade kills VirtualBox
It was ironic, because I was using WindowMaker when I installed the kernel and then on
reboot, WindowMaker attempted to start and then crashed back to the login screen. After
the upgrade I successfully rebuilt the kernel module for vb with vbox_build_module, then
started vbox and it hung with a small dialog "spawning session". Let me know
what information you want to see and I'll be happy to provide it or file a bug report.
Thanks.
Add to the list of broken desktop/window managers:
(3) Enlightenment (E17) broken with latest kernel
The problem seems to be libpng and libjpg. The xsession-errors from windowmaker
were:
[13:26 alchemy:~] # cat /home/david/.xsession-errors
wmaker: error while loading shared libraries: libpng12.so.0: cannot open shared
object file: No such file or directory
I created the link to libpng like:
ln -s /usr/lib/libpng14.so.14.0.0 /usr/lib/libpng12.so.0
then on next wm start
[13:32 alchemy:~] # cat /home/david/.xsession-errors
wmaker: error while loading shared libraries: libjpeg.so.7: cannot open shared
object file: No such file or directory
I didn't catch the E17 .xsession-errors, but I suspect it is related.
packages for e17 wasn't rebuild. have patience or downgrade to
extra/community and don't flood the email with useless problems.
The rebuilding process is NOT FINISHED.
