from 2.6.12-r6 to 2.6.12-r10 , but the kernel was not upgraded .. Now when i
boot my system with the older kernel i am not able to start KDE .. Whenever
i write startx on the terminal i get the message

Using vt 7

Symbol __glXgetActiveScreen from module /usr/lib/modules/extensions/libdri.a
is unresolved!


Can anybody please help me out with this ...

Did you actually tell your bootloader (lilo or grub) to boot the new kernel? 
If not so, go to /etc/lilo.conf or /boot/grub/grub.conf and edit the file. If 
you are using grub you are set by now. If lilo is your choice you still have 
to run "lilo". Try to reboot.

When you say you tried to upgrade your kernel, what do you mean to say
that you did?

If you did something like

emerge -uav gentoo-sources

that doesn't 'upgrade your kernel', it downloads and extracts a newer
kernel to /usr/src, where you would then have to configure, compile, and
install it, either manually, or using genkernel. After which, you would
possibly need to edit your bootloader config files (grub.conf or
lilo.conf), to inform the bootloader that a new kernel was available.

If you didn't do any of these things, then you haven't upgraded your
kernel-- Gentoo is not a binary distro where you just download and
replace the previous kernel binary with a new one, as you would in
Mandrake or SuSE or Fedora Core.

What video card do you have? If an ATI or nVidia card using the
proprietary drivers, you would need to re-emerge those drivers against
the new kernel when upgrading.

Are you sure you're booting to the older kernel? After booting, and
logging in, don't type startx, but instead

uname -a

What kernel does it report?

Hi holly, uwe
 Thanx for ur replies ... I was actually trying to install my sound driver
when emerge automatically downloaded the newer version of kernel i.e
2.6.12-r10 telling me it has a better support for sound cards.. After the
newer version was downloaded in /usr/src/ , i did "make menuconfig" to
configure the kernel and save the .config file. Then "make && make
modules_install" to compile the kernel.
 After that i compiled the kernel and copied it to the /boot directory. But
forgot to update the grub.conf file ... When rebooted the system i tried to
start the X server but it always shows the same message till now..I thought
there maybe some problem with the newer version. Then i realize i havent
updated the grub.conf file and this was my older version being loaded so* *i
make the link "linux" point towards older version.
 When i do a uname -a it shows me the older version i.e 2.6.12-r6 of the
kernel . Before that my Xserver was working fine. Does updating to new
kernel effect the configuration file of Xserver. I have attached my
Xserver's Log file. When i execute /etc/X11/X it a gui window does appear
with a mouse pointer but nothing happens after that. When i go back to the
terminal i see the same message being displayed
 Using vt 7

Symbol __glXgetActiveScreen from module /usr/lib/modules/extensions/libdri.a
is unresolved!
 Symbol __glXgetActiveScreen from module
/usr/lib/modules/extensions/libdri.a is unresolved!

What should i do now ??

OK, this is where I'm a little confused. Would you, first of all, do an

emerge -pv gentoo-sources

This will not do anything (since you're using the --pretend switch);
what I want to know is whether the 'symlink' USE flag is active (+, red)
or inactive (-, blue), which will be revealed by the --verbose switch.

If it was active, then when you emerged the upgraded kernel, the
/usr/src/linux link was automatically adjusted to point to the -r10
kernel just installed, but if the USE flag is inactive, the link
remained pointing to the -r6 kernel previously existing (I assume; if
the USE flag was never active, and you never manually redirected the
links, then /usr/src/linux could still be pointing to the first kernel
you installed, for all I know).

However, the target for the /usr/src/linux symlink is not likely
relevant for this issue.

More of relevance is the directory listing of /boot.

So could you, second of all

1) mount /boot (if not mounted, and did you remember to mount /boot
before installing the new kernel?)

2) post the output of

la /boot (or ls -la /boot if you don't have the 'la' alias, but afaik,
it's a default alias for ls -la).

Oh, wait.... you install your kernels manually, and don't use 'make
install', right? Well, let's look at the output anyway, just to know
what exactly is going on.

Anyway, what you need to do in order to get grub to recognize your new
kernel is not to change the 'linux' link in /usr/src, but to change or
add an entry in grub.conf to point to the new kernel.

For instance, here's my grub.conf:
default=0
timeout=10
splashimage=(hd0,1)/grub/grub-livecd2.xpm.gz

title Gentoo_current (2.6.12-gentoo-r10)
        root (hd0,1)

splash=silent,fadein,theme:livecd-2005.1 CONSOLE=/dev/tty1

title Gentoo_prev (2.6.12-gentoo-r9)
        root (hd0,1)
        kernel /vmlinuz.old ro root=/dev/hda5
video=vesafb:ywrap,pmipal,mtrr,1280x1024-32@60
splash=verbose,theme:emergence quiet CONSOLE=/dev/tty1

title Failsafe_current
        root (hd0,1)
        kernel /vmlinuz ro root=/dev/hda5
video=vesafb:ywrap,pmipal,mtrr,1280x1024-32@60 emergency

title SUSE LINUX 9.3
        root (hd0,1)
        kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.11.4-20a-default real_root=/dev/hda6
vga=0x317 selinux=0 splash=silent resume=/dev/hda6  showopts
        initrd /initrd-2.6.11.4-20a-default

But I use 'make install' to install my kernels, so 'vmlinuz' and
'vmlinuz.old' are symlinks to my current and previous kernels, as you
can see from the directory listing:

Since you manually copied your kernels, I can't hazard a guess as to
what your setup may look like, or what you may need to add to grub.conf
to get the new kernel recognized.

Not really. The configuration remains the same, but since the video
driver is a kernel module, in your case the i810 driver

> (II) I810: Driver for Intel Integrated Graphics Chipsets: i810, 
> i810-dc100, i810e, i815, i830M, 845G, 852GM/855GM, 865G, 915G (II)

compiling a new kernel affects the foundation of the X server, rather
than its configuration.

But since you aren't using external kernel modules, as I am, it's hard
to say what your problem might be, unless you somehow confused the
system as to which kernel is supposed to be running in some way.


> Symbol __glXgetActiveScreen from module 
> /usr/lib/modules/extensions/libdri.a is unresolved!

doesn't really make any sense... unless the X server is trying to run
the *new* module, against the old kernel. And one of the KDE annoyances
I've found is that it seems to go all wonky and won't start if it has
ever been started with 3D acceleration, and that functionality breaks
(which yours is, given that the error is in glXwhatever). One of the
things that gets on my nerves about KDE, but that's another story.

The whole thing makes me wonder just which kernel you compiled and
installed.

Anyway, let's get your new kernel straightened out and see if the
problem solves itself.

First of all, you want the /usr/src/linux link to point to -r10. That
way anything that needs to be compiled against the kernel will follow
that link and compile against the new kernel rather than the old.

It's up to you, of course, but if it was me, after adjusting the link, I
would check the configuration of and then recompile the new kernel. But
I like to be sure I know what I've done if I had confused myself this
way (and I have done). If you're familiar with kernel compilation--
which you seem to be, since you don't use genkernel-- copying the
.config from the old kernel and running 'make menuconfig' is not much of
a problem; heck, even running through a full 'make menuconfig' isn't a
big deal if you know the settings that your system needs to run
smoothly. Don't forget to install things in the same manner as the old
kernel, where applicable; if you previously installed the i810 module as
a loadable module, then do so again, if static then keep it static,
unless you want to be also mucking about with /etc/modules.autoload.d,
(which is easy enough, but let's try to keep the variables to a minimum
here :) ).

I would then install the kernel with 'make install' rather than manually
(don't forget to mount /boot first, like I do half the time), since
manual kernel installation just gives you more places to make mistakes,
imo, since you have to make up a name for the new kernel to avoid
overwriting the old bzImage with the new one, and I can't be bothered to
keep track of that for more than two iterations. 'make install' conforms
everything so that I don't have to keep track of it, which is fine by me.

Fix your grub.conf so that the entry to boot the new kernel goes to
vmlinuz (if you used make install, or the name of your new kernel if you
for some reason didn't), and the entry to boot the older kernel goes to
vmlinuz.old (if you used make install, etc.,etc.)

Save, unmount /boot, and see what happens when you try to boot the new
kernel. Before starting X, confirm that the new kernel is running (uname
-a again), and then see if KDE will start.

If it doesn't, check if it's failing with the same error or a different
one, and in any case, post it here so we can see what's what.

Hope this helps,
Holly
