Description Alexander Kain 2004-02-13 05:15:45 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040115

Description of problem:
excerpts from dmesg:

SELinux:  Initializing.
SELinux:  Starting in permissive mode
There is already a security framework initialized, register_security
failed.
Failure registering capabilities with the kernel
selinux_register_security:  Registering secondary module capability

request_module: failed /sbin/modprobe -- char-major-21-1. error = 256
request_module: failed /sbin/modprobe -- char-major-21-28. error = 256
(sg)

request_module: failed /sbin/modprobe -- char-major-4-72. error = 256
(serial)
request_module: failed /sbin/modprobe -- char-major-188. error = 256
(?)

(this has been discussed at length, I am just including this for
completeness)
atkbd.c: This is an XFree86 bug. It shouldn't access hardware directly.

request_module: failed /sbin/modprobe -- snd-card-0. error = 256
P
request_module: failed /sbin/modprobe -- sound-slot-1. error = 256
h
request_module: failed /sbin/modprobe -- char-major-10-134. error = 256
(mouse?)

spurious 8259A interrupt: IRQ7.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-2.6.1-1.65

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. boot
2. watch the boot messages OR
3. dmesg
    

Actual Results:  no sound, but expect other problems as well.

Expected Results:  sound should work.

Additional info:

I get warnings like these when doing "up2date":
/etc/security/selinux/src/policy/file_contexts/file_contexts: No such
file or directory

Comment 1 Alexander Kain 2004-02-13 16:40:51 UTC
Also, while booting up some errors are displayed on the console:

* toshiba_acpi - no such device
* keybdev - not found
* mousedev - not found
* cpuspeed - could not open file for writing:
sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor

On shutdown, both updfstab and quota complain about bad sysctl sequences .
