Hello, After upgrading today my 7.1 distro today, I got the "grey screen of death" stating that my system had crashed and that I had to contact a system administrator. By looking at dmesg, it said that : "hdaps: supported laptop not found!" "hdaps: driver init failed (ret=-19)!" I also have this issue with the upgraded Mageia 8, so I figure out the issue is rooted in some recent package upgrade. This problem seems recurrent, as it is documented in 2011 and 2016 for Thinkpad systems. Too bad this Loch Ness monster shows up again...
Sorry for the aggro. Can you please give a little background, for example: > After upgrading today my 7.1 distro today > I also have this issue with the upgraded Mageia 8 - Confusing: did you mean *update* of the M7 system? If so, you know exactly what date it went wrong, and we can look at updates for that time. - did Mageia 7 work on the machine in question until - ? - did the upgrade work OK? - did the problem appear just in the upgraded system? - are you able to try a Live Mageia 8 ISO to see whether that works on it? - if you are able to, to give system information, please post the O/P of: $ inxi -b

Reporter, could you please reply to the previous question? If you don't reply within two weeks from now, I will have to close this bug as OLD. Thank you.

Dear all, sorry for my silence, The issue seems to result from an incomplete (and hence inconsistent) update of the packages of the 7.1 distro, two weeks ago (exactly, when I updated my system at the very date of the report). Indeed, the system told me that I could not update all packages, because of unsatisfied dependencies. If I remember well, that was linked to upgrading to Gnome 40 (does it ring a bell to you ?). Upgrading to Mageia 8 with the resulting installed list of packages also resulted in a malfunctioning system ("system crash" screen by the time when launching the X subsystem at boot). Reinstalling the most recent 7.1 (Net install) from scratch luckily solved the issue. So it seems that I was in a state with a set of packages that created some sort of deadlock in package versioning, that did not allow this upgrade to complete peacefully. I have learnt from this never to accept to upgrade when the packaging dependency check yells... ;-) Regards and thanks for your job, f.p.

We are not providing GNOME 40 binaries to existing Mageia Release but it is already landing in Cauldron, the devel branch of Mageia, which is not intended to be used in production environment. > > Reinstalling the most recent 7.1 (Net install) from scratch luckily solved > the issue. You could use the Mageia 8 net install ISO also... ;) Mageia 7.1 will be End of Life by end of May 2021. > So it seems that I was in a state with a set of packages that created some > sort of deadlock in package versioning, that did not allow this upgrade to > complete peacefully.
