Comment 3 Alex Loginov 2013-07-01 21:51:07 CEST
Only this combination is working, now I don't use kernel-server-3.4.45, because there are many problems with finding 3.3.8 in first message.
Comment 4 Manuel Hiebel 2013-07-03 11:13:29 CEST
and previously what did you have ? 

you have to have the corresponding kernel-server-devel matching the kernel you have, witch seems not the case

next time please provide full logs I understand personnaly nothing with such cut
Comment 5 Alex Loginov 2013-07-03 11:49:40 CEST
Now I'm writing version directly 3.3.8:
http://code.google.com/p/mageiaos/source/browse/branches/0.0.5/mod_names/02-base-core
http://code.google.com/p/mageiaos/source/browse/branches/0.0.5/mod_names/03-base-kernel-dkms
http://code.google.com/p/mageiaos/source/browse/branches/0.0.5/mod_names/05-base-x
If I'll change 3.3.8 -> 3.4.45 and change 295.71-1 -> latest version in repo, then I'll have errors, which I wrote in first comment.

How to reproduce (unionfs is requires and Mageia 2):
1) svn checkout https://mageiaos.googlecode.com/svn/branches/0.0.5/ mageiaos
2) to change 3.3.8 -> 3.4.45
3) to run script total.sh
Comment 6 Manuel Hiebel 2013-07-03 12:30:12 CEST
I can't debug your work..
but it works fine in mga with real use
Comment 7 Alex Loginov 2013-07-03 13:27:27 CEST
If it works fine in mga, it's does not means, that bug is not present.
It works fine in mga if to do update, because all problematic kernels are in updates. But I use new kernels directly (without update) and bug is present.
Comment 8 Manuel Hiebel 2013-07-04 11:01:18 CEST
I installed recently a mga2 with the netinstall so directly kernel from core/updates and it was working fine (as you can test in a chroot)

Status: NEW => UNCONFIRMED
Ever confirmed: 1 => 0

Comment 9 Marja Van Waes 2013-07-04 18:33:37 CEST
Sorry, I made the mistake to comment on this bug in a mail-exchange with Alex, instead of here.

I'll now paste what I said in this comment, and ÐлекÑей's reply in the next comment.

I intend to test your distro asap (it would help if there were 48 hours in a day). However, even if I'd manage to reproduce this bug using *mageaios* svn, that wouldn't mean a thing. We need someone who is capable *and* who has time to test with mageia.org software only.
Comment 12 Thomas Backlund 2013-07-04 19:02:12 CEST
Not a bug.

You are missing the matching driver updates in nonfree/updates that will work with 3.4 series kernels.

Status: UNCONFIRMED => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => INVALID

Comment 13 Alex Loginov 2013-07-04 19:16:56 CEST
Marja, thank's for your comments and cares.
>You are missing the matching driver updates in nonfree/updates that will work >with 3.4 series kernels.
I used driver updates in nonfree/updates that must work with 3.4 series kernels, logs are in the first comment. Now I specially used packages version like comment 2, because else don't work.
to change 295.71-1 -> latest version in repo, of cause (comment 5)
This bug is about using latest kernel (even without dkms-nvidia96xx,
dkms-nvidia173, dkms-broadcom-wl, dkms-vboxadditions, dkms-virtualbox,
dkms-fglrx, dkms-nvidia-current) for Mageia 2.

Resolution: INVALID => FIXED

Comment 14 Thomas Backlund 2013-07-04 19:30:09 CEST
Well, as shown in other bugreports (like the one about radeon-firmware) you have a broken buildsystem / buildscripts

We have pushed so far four sets of 3.4 series kernel and their matching drivers and prebuilt kmods:

kernel-3.4.24-3.mga2.src.rpm
kernel-3.4.32-2.mga2.src.rpm
kernel-3.4.34-1.mga2.src.rpm
kernel-3.4.45-1.mga2.src.rpm

and everyone has passed full QA ensuring the drivers works regardless of using prebuilt modules or dkms packages.

So we _know_ they work.

So fix your scripts and you will have a lot less problems
