Two problems after the upgrade (13.2->42.1)

Hi all, i’ve successfully upgraded my openSUSE from 13.2 to 42.1 using offline DVD.
The system seems stable, but I’ve these two problems:

  1. When I boot my computer I can read:
systemd[1]: Failed to start Load Kernel Modules.
  1. kNetworkManager icon is invisible in the system tray… ouch :beat-up:

Thanks for the help

did you uninstall the nvidia/ati video drivers prior to the upgrade are you using any other 3rd party driver
can you boot to a graphical environment?
if not in the boot menu select advanced options, type the number 3 and boot in run level 3
go to yast ncurses disable the nvidia/ati repo, uninstall the nvidia/ati rpm, if it exists delete /etc/X11/xorg.conf

I never used the network monitor but when I upgraded from 13.2-42.1 with zypper my network was off, just goto yast and start your network

My system works perfectly, I’ve bumblebee with nvidia driver :slight_smile:
The only problems are those two that I’ve written in the 1st post.

PS: network works perfectly, but as I’ve stated in the 1st post, the networkmanager icon is invisible in the system tray.

did you remove bumblebee before the upgrade process as that is an extra 3rd party Kernel module for the 3.16.x Kernels and it won’t work with the 4.1 Kernel that LEAP comes with, do you have an extra hardware driver?

if you didn’t have plasma 5 on 13.2 plasma-nm5 was probably not installed during the upgrade, check and see if it’s installed if not install it

sudo zypper in plasma-nm5

I am currently using Tumbleweed, but I see that exact warning (Bumblebee + Nvidia like yours).
Since everything works, I never tried to “solve” it.

I’ve installed plasma-nm5, but still no luck… Btw I had bumblebee installed when I upgraded…

Here is a pic of the issue:

The blank space between bluetooth and audio is the network applet, that is invisible…

I think that I’ll format my computer and do a clean install… I never had luck with distro-upgrade (with any distro), and I ended up everytime doing a fresh install.

I wouldn’t recommencement a reinstall
personally I don’t use nm so I can’t be of more help as I didn’t even notice it was missing
go to yast->Network Settings and see what’s configured
when I did a dup the Network was off, select Network Manager in Network Setup method see pic

atm I’m using lxqt under plasma 5 yast will have different decorations but it should look more or less the same
after changing network services you might try a reboot

Why not? Btw tomorrow I’ll try another time to fix this issue… If I’ll manage to fix it, I’ll not format, since every other parts of the system seems ok…

I just noticed this on my 13.2 system here today as well. I don’t think
it’s anything to worry about unless a device isn’t working.
