139603 2006-07-07 14:14 0000 KDM: Select grub menu entry on reboot fails 2006-09-08 04:19:14 0000 1 1 1 Unclassified Gentoo Linux KDE 2006.0 All Linux RESOLVED FIXED P2 normal --- 1 g.menke@gmx.net kde@gentoo.org heiko@baums-on-web.de ikrabbe.ask@web.de g.menke@gmx.net 2006-07-07 14:14:36 0000 When I select a grub menu entry from kdm's reboot button, kdm tries to open a grub shell and use the command "setdefault", which does not exist. Probably there is a distro that patches grub to have that option, but in gentoo that is not the case. I have made a patch so kdm uses "grub-set-default" instead, and submitted it on bugs.kde.org. Until it eventually makes its way into a KDE release, it is probably a good thing to add the patch to portage. You can find it here: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=63800#c8 g.menke@gmx.net 2006-07-07 14:16:03 0000 Created an attachment (id=91166) Patch for KDM to use grub-set-default carlo@gentoo.org 2006-07-07 17:12:38 0000 Whoever takes a look at this, please take also https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=127045 into account. /me is lilo only, so... deathwing00@gentoo.org 2006-08-30 08:18:57 0000 I'll try to do something with this. deathwing00@gentoo.org 2006-08-30 08:30:13 0000 Note to self: both patches need to be applied to kde-base/kdebase and kde-base/kdm deathwing00@gentoo.org 2006-08-30 08:38:32 0000 It might be smart to add the following einfo: First, modify your configuration file. Here is an example: default saved # This is important!!! timeout 10 title the old kernel root (hd0,0) kernel /old_kernel savedefault title the new kernel root (hd0,0) kernel /new_kernel savedefault 0 # This is important!!! deathwing00@gentoo.org 2006-08-30 08:46:05 0000 I notice that the patches are in fact 3 and not 2. I'll add them to kde-base/kdm only for now. Once it gets tested enough we can move the patches to kde-base/kdebase. deathwing00@gentoo.org 2006-08-30 08:48:24 0000 My bad, the patches are 2 definitely. deathwing00@gentoo.org 2006-08-30 09:10:29 0000 kde-base/kdm fixed in CVS Proceeding with kde-base/kdebase deathwing00@gentoo.org 2006-08-30 09:54:23 0000 Patch for kde-base/kdebase will be added by carlo together with another patch set. Marking as fixed. deathwing00@gentoo.org 2006-09-08 04:19:14 0000 *** Bug 143051 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** 91166 2006-07-07 14:16 0000 Patch for KDM to use grub-set-default kdm-3.5.3-grub-set-default.patch text/plain LS0tIGtkbS0zLjUuMy5vcmlnL2tkbS9iYWNrZW5kL2Jvb3RtYW4uYwkyMDA1LTA5LTEwIDEwOjI2 OjEyLjAwMDAwMDAwMCArMDIwMAorKysga2RtLTMuNS4zL2tkbS9iYWNrZW5kL2Jvb3RtYW4uYwky MDA2LTA3LTA3IDIyOjA5OjA4LjAwMDAwMDAwMCArMDIwMApAQCAtODIsNyArODIsNyBAQAogCWlu dCBsZW47CiAJY2hhciBsaW5lWzEwMDBdOwogCi0JaWYgKCFncnViICYmICEoZ3J1YiA9IGxvY2F0 ZSggImdydWIiICkpKQorCWlmICghZ3J1YiAmJiAhKGdydWIgPSBsb2NhdGUoICJncnViLXNldC1k ZWZhdWx0IiApKSkKIAkJcmV0dXJuIEJPX05PTUFOOwogCiAJKmRlZiA9IDA7CkBAIC0xMzAsMTkg KzEzMCwxNCBAQAogc3RhdGljIHZvaWQKIGNvbW1pdEdydWIoIHZvaWQgKQogewotCUZJTEUgKmY7 Ci0JaW50IHBpZDsKLQlzdGF0aWMgY29uc3QgY2hhciAqYXJnc1tdID0geyAwLCAiLS1iYXRjaCIs ICItLW5vLWZsb3BweSIsIDAgfTsKLQorCWNoYXIgY29tbWFuZFsyNTZdOworCQogCWlmIChzZFJl Yy5ibXN0YW1wICE9IG1UaW1lKCBHUlVCX01FTlUgKSAmJgogCSAgICBzZXRHcnViKCBzZFJlYy5v c25hbWUsICZzZFJlYyApICE9IEJPX09LKQogCQlyZXR1cm47CiAKLQlhcmdzWzBdID0gZ3J1YjsK LQlpZiAoKGYgPSBwT3BlbiggKGNoYXIgKiopYXJncywgJ3cnLCAmcGlkICkpKSB7Ci0JCWZwcmlu dGYoIGYsICJzYXZlZGVmYXVsdCAtLWRlZmF1bHQ9JWQgLS1vbmNlXG4iLCBzZFJlYy5vc2luZGV4 ICk7Ci0JCXBDbG9zZSggZiwgcGlkICk7Ci0JfQorCXNwcmludGYoY29tbWFuZCwgIiVzICVkIiwg Z3J1Yiwgc2RSZWMub3NpbmRleCk7CisJc3lzdGVtKGNvbW1hbmQpOwogfQogCiBzdGF0aWMgY2hh ciAqbGlsbzsK
