Summary: Review Request: initng https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=173459 ------- Additional Comments From michel.vandenbergh@xxxxxxxxxxx 2006-01-27 05:34 EST ------- I repeat that I like initng. By trying it I have now a much clearer view on the boot process of Fedora. >> - some bugs (e.g. sometimes stopping a daemon does not seem to work if it >> dependent on a service in the same file); > >Could you post a bug about this (with all relevant information) in initng bz? It >doesn't sound like a hard fix to me... I will try but first I need to install 0.5.3. Or would svn be better? >> - sometimes sound devices are not created, this is clearly a udevd issue; >Udev scripts are being heavily worked on. Let's hope this gets fixed. Filing a >bug might help too. The problem that it only happens occasionally so it seems like a timing issue. Calling udevstart at the end of system/alsasound/loadmodules forces the devices to be created but adds 2 seconds to the boottime (as it also checks all other devices). Again I will need to install 0.5.3 before filing a proper bug report. >> - booting hung while starting the daemon udev/udevd hung because udevd does not >> recognize the --daemon argument (easily fixable); > >Are you sure about this? According to udevd manpage udevd _has_ a daemon >argument. Not on my system! Perhaps you are running rawhide? I am running FC4 with the latest updates but little else. >> - often console switches to cyrillic for a while (ugly); > >I've been trying to fix this, but it didn't get any better. Check comment #84 >above. If anyone can help me out here I would be very glad... I also have no idea what could possibly cause this. Disabling gdm, consolefont, and keymaps did not fix it.... >> - console flashes (ugly); > >Flashes? Could you elaborate? The console turns black and then it comes back up. >> - no integration yet with rhgb (easily fixable I presume). > >Blah. Do we really need rhgb when running initng? I think we do (but it is of course not a show stopper). Many people do like the cleanliness of a WinXP or Mac/OSX boot. On a desktop system users should not see *any* bootmessages (even rhgb is too noisy for my taste). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. -- fedora-extras-list mailing list fedora-extras-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-extras-list
