Error After Running Yum Update - Black Screen

Can you guys advise on how to resolve this? We have a machine (RHEL 6 32bit 2.6.32-504.8.1.el6.i686) that boots to a black screen. I can SSH into it from my machine, but when you're physically at the machine it just displays a black screen.

I have tried booting from the previous 2 kernels, but still get the black screen.

I am assuming something got hosed with the video stuff? Its an ATI Radeon 4000series card. Should I install the ATI driver from their website and try? We have never had to do that with these machines though.


Also, when running a yum update, we receive this error. I'm not sure how to resolve this and if resolving this will fix the video issues.

Code:
# yum update

Utilizing Yum To Update Rpms Based On Linux Security Notices

Hello all.

I'm using RHEL 6.5 Workstation and have a single RHEL system connected to the internet do download rpms based on Security Notices from Red Hat. While on the RHEL system and internet I perform the below:

yum install --downloadonly --resolve --downloaddir=<directory> <package>

My goal is to ensure I capture any dependencies (which is a nightmare)and thus I use the --resolve. When I update my RHEL systems not connected to the internet I perform a yum update. For some yum updates it's goes pretty smooth but for others I'm constantly getting errors about conflicts or other similar errors. An example of when yum updates don't work can be seen below:

Is there something I'm not doing correctly? Again some work and some do not, as seen above the example where it does not work. Is this a larger problem? Although I'm using RHEL 6.5 on the system where I obtain my security updates are my RHEL 6.5 systems which are not connected to the internet so different (in regards to what files are installed) that dependencies differ greatly and I'm not fully appreciating the environment for my off-line systems?

A million thanks in advance,

Circular Dependencies When Trying To Install Glibc, Glibc-common And Others

Any tips/tricks on how and what order I should be installing the RHEL6 packages so that I don't get dependency errors would be much appreciated.

I have sudo access (unrestricted I think) to a Linux VM running RHEL 6.3. I am trying to install an IBM product which requires KSH along with a bunch of Linux packages (both 32-bit and 64-bit versions) before it can install properly. Minimal documentation for installing on a Linux environment from IBM.

Many of the packages I am trying to install gives me a dependency failu

libdl.so.2(GLIBC_2.1) is needed by glibc-common-2.12-1.149.el6_6.9.i686

Should I be downloading earlier versions of glibc from the Red Hat site? Please note, I installed the x86_64-bit versions of the required packages with no issues... just getting stuck on the 32-bit components.

Also, this system is internal facing and has no route out to RHN so yum installs automatically return errors, which is why I am stuck using rpm.

Thanks in advance!

Packages Skipped Because Of Dependency Problems...

Hello All

I am still working out the basics of Linux.
I have a Centos 7 install. I cannot get this RPM to install. It installs fine under Centos 6.

What am I doing wrong? I really need a GUI Find and Replace program!
--skip broken does not work either.

Thanks in advance

dnw is a download tool for ARM. Maybe secbulk is it's driver. I don't know much about it. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Linux Dialog Executable

I was trying to write a simple menu using the "dialog" function only to find out that the version of linux i am running (I have previously worked on HP/Sun/ICL/AIX versions of unix)does not have the "dialog exe" and the one that someone has put on this box is not compatible.As follows:-

file /dir/dir/dir/dailog Retruns:-
dialog: ELF 32-bit MSB executable, SPARC, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped

where as
file /usr/bin/diff
/usr/bin/diff: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.6.9, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped

Where can I get the correct version of dialog.

uname -a gives :-
2.6.18-371.el5 #1 SMP Thu Sep 5 21:20:46 EDT 2013 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

How To Install GNU/Linux Distros On A Mac

I'm working on switching from mac os x to gnu/linux. so far the distros that seem most favorable to me are the ones listed here.

what should I try? also, x86_64 is the version I should use for a mac, not i386 or i486 or i686, right? I know I can run i386 but I think x86_64 is what will allow me to use all the ram.

I am trying dragora right now and I can't get it to install. I used gnu parted to make a linux partition but it doesn't recognize it when I try to setup.

how do I remove or partition the gpt?

Is there any way to make multiple bootable install partitions on non-rewritable DVDs?

Acer Aspire One I686

Hi, i have an older netbook that i love so much and refuse to give in and get a new one but it came stock with windows xp which is no longer supported so i looked into converting it to a linux distribution instead. i researched and found out that the ubuntu was highly recomended and i had to use Wubi to install it since the usb ports on my device say hub port power surge every time that i plug something into them, well once i got everything downloaded and then got to the startup menu where i was instructed to choose between ubuntu and windows, and i selected ubuntu, i was alerted that i needed to select a kernel for a cpu of i686. I am not really a tech whiz so what is the next best reccomended step that i need to take in order to use linux?

thanks,
Carolynne
