UUIDs missing in Ubuntu?
by Sean Crago 11 Jan '09

11 Jan '09

I recently did a benign looking apt-get dist-upgrade in Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex and, a few days later, rebooted. I think a kernel patch was involved, but I'm not sure/haven't tried to revert to an old one yet to fix this problem, but I'd like to find a cleaner fix: I have one old PATA HDD on my box that I mount on boot to /tmp via a UUID-based fstab entry. This used to work just fine. It's mounted a generic SCSI device, so it doesn't show up as hda1 anymore, but it shows up as sda1 and is symlinked to in /dev/disk/*/, as are my other generic SCSI devices - My removable media, my memory card reader, etc. Now, though, I don't see anything except my one SATA drive in my /dev/disk/by-*/ entries. To make things substantially MORE strange, all of these problems went away at 13:37 this afternoon, when the missing symlinks were created en masse. No reference at all exists to that time in any plaintext file in /var/log/ Any guesses as to what's wrong with my system and how to prevent this from blocking a proper UUID-based fstab from working at boot time? Thanks, Sean Crago Kathmandu

As root, or via sudo, run: /sbin/lspci -nnvb | grep -i VGA -A 100 | grep -i "kernel module" -B 100 -m 1 That should adequately identify your graphics chipset. Eyeballs aren't scriptable.
