You *need* to upgrade the gstreamer libraries or you break gnome (which breaks gdm). Uninstall whatever is clashing from epel, upgrade gstreamer, all will be well. There's a missing dependency there in the RPMs, but to be honest that's not at all uncommon. I'd never recommend a partial update over a point release. jh ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Sadly, in this case, no init system would help with the fact that the kernel panic is more lines than are shown on a VGA screen. So, no help there. Also, while the systemd init system is loaded very early, judging from the call trace, it happened before or during the pivot from the initrd to the root filesystem. There's little that can be done to address this kind of panic, no matter what init system you're running, you basically just need to have a logging console somewhere. However, if you have a journald writing into memory, its very possible that if it doesn't panic enough to kill the journal you might have a copy of what *was* running. It's not the case here, but this is something that you get from having a journal -- you have real logs of what was happening, what processes were running and what emitted the error. With Upstart and SysVinit, you were stuck watching the output on the console and hoping whatever generated the error was good enough to say what program it was. Sure, you could make guesses based on the serial startup (although Upstart also supported parallel startup, although the CentOS init system rarely used it). For what its worth, you could always crank up systemd.log_level=debug on boot and you'll see what's going on when it panics. -- Jonathan Billings ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

The long answer: Because RH believes/believed that the laptop environment is/was a key part of its growth strategy. The recent phenomenon of the widespread adoption of smart phones and tablets in place of laptops may bring that into question now, but the move to laptops was a deliberate business choice in my opinion. It remains to be seen whether or not RH can have its cake and eat it too. Sysadmins tend to be rather prickly people when it comes to people and things that appear to waste their time. It seems to me a strategy of dubious worth aggravating ones installed based chasing a chimera.

With systemd's parallelism, we have no clue, other than what it's done, and no idea what's happening that's failing. It has never been true that a kernel panic was necessarily caused by the immediately preceding step in a sequential init. I ran into one instance (back in 4.x days, incidentally, where 'x' was 1 or 2) where a panic was caused by the tg3 driver, but it wasn't tickled until a variable number of packets passed the interface, and it didn't happen very often. Typically, when it happened it happened during ssh startup (almost every time it occurred, in fact). But the root cause was the tg3 driver module, not sshd. So having the last line before the panic being the ssh startup was actually a hindrance rather than a help in that case; I would have been looking for an sshd problem that didn't actually exist. I don't think that's an isolated instance, either. You need the module information from the panic more than information on what was started immediately prior to the panic. This was fixed without me having to file a bug report, incidentally, and so there is no BZ # to point you to that I recall, and a quick search of bugzilla doesn't show one for that particular issue that I had. I ended up seeing that it was a tg3 problem after setting up a serial console and grabbing the panic output from that. By the time I got to that point, the next update rollup for CentOS 4 was coming down, and that was the end of that problem. I keep thinking I'll track down the panic I saw a few months ago with CentOS 7 and gkrellm on my hardware, but by the time I get enough 'round toits' to do the troubleshooting the kernel has been updated, and I have to wait on the debuginfo.lather, rinse, repeat. Eventually I'll get my timing right and see what is (or maybe is not) happening. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

I know this is a big, confused thread, but the main complaint is that the website has dropped the fully qualified numbering: https://www.google.com/#q=%227.1.1503%27+site:centos.org vs https://www.google.com/#q=%227+1503%27+site:centos.org The first is "7.1.1503" and has 895 results, and they aren't html pages, they're things like directories containing that string.
