Fedora 28 is not starting: "acpi MST0101:00: platform device creation failed" - fedora

I have never experienced issues with my fedora 28 in my laptop, until recently, after not using my laptop for two-three weeks.
Now every time I start the laptop, I received the following error when the OS is loading:
failed to claim resource 1: [nen0xfed40000-oxfed40ff]
[ 0.123896] acpi MST0101:00: platform device creation failed:
-16
generating /run/initramfs/rdsosreport.txt
Note that It stops in a very limited terminal session. Hence, I cannot find the way to mount a usb key to copy the above mentioned file (my lack of experience).
I started the system using a borrowed usb key with Ubuntu, and have no problems at all, so I discard any hardware issue.
Still, the above mentioned file does not exists, or perhaps is removed when I started using the usb key?
Anyway, if you can help me or refer me to any source to fix the problem, and be able to use my Fedora again I will really appreciate it.
I do not want to install the OS again, and lose my installed programs and configuration.

mySQL 64 Bit Windows Compatibility Issue

I am currently having an issue with mySQL. The installation process seemed to have proceeded rather smoothly, but I run into an error whenever I attempt to start or shut down the server. The only way I can seem to start up the server is by reinstalling mySQL, and the only way I can shut it down is through the task manager.
Clicking on the "Stop (start) Server" button in the mySQL workbench gives me the following error:
Unsupported 16 bit application.
The program or feature "\??\C:\watcom-1.3\binw\sc.exe" cannot start or run due to incompatibility with 64 bit versions of Windows. Please contact the software vendor to ask if a 64 bit Windows compatible version is available.
I've tried downloading a 64 bit version of watcom, but this has not solved my problem. I can't seem to figure out exactly what went wrong here, and would appreciate any advice.
I've attached a link below in case you'd like to see the original error message.

Fedora 21 terminal based application slow response

I have recently updated to Fedora 21 Beta, and updated all packages. As the final release is scheduled early next month, I don't expect anything big to change. So I think the problem I am facing may well persist into the production release.
The problem is that when using some terminal based applications, the terminal responses very slowly. For example, say I edit a file with Vim in terminal, after a few minutes, it becomes increasingly difficult to use. Every time I hit a keystroke, the cursor will wait like a second to respond. Edit the same file (which is of only a dozen of lines) in GVim, everything works as smoothly as expected. Other terminal based applications shows the same slow response. However, using the terminal itself as an interactive shell has no problem at all.
I understand it is very hard to come by an answer to why it is experiencing this kind of slow response based only on my vague description. However, if anyone can point to where I should look for diagnostics of the problem, some log files etc., it will highly appreciated.
Below are some more details of the system.
The computer is a Dell T3500 workstation with Xeon W3550 CPU, NVIDIA Quadro 2000 GPU. I am using the latest NVIDIA binary driver (both the long live version 340.58 as well as the beta series 346.16 are tried). The open-source driver was uninstalled and its kernel module were blacklisted (lsmod | grep nouveau shows nothing, as expected). The desktop environment is GNOME Classic.
I believe the issue is with the Nvidia driver configuration. I know this question is old, but I was looking for a solution to the same problem in Fedora 22. I experienced this issue when I was using Fedora 21, but I mostly put up with it.
The solution for me was to uncheck Sync to VBlank in the Nvidia X Server settings.
Are you running in a VM whose storage grows as you need it? Perhaps the problem is that the VM is taking time to allocate space as your storage needs grow. If that's the case, after a while you won't have the problem anymore, as your virtual disk will have grown as big as it needs to be.
As for diagnostics, try running "top", look for paging activity and resident set size.
Maybe something has a memory leak. It might not be in the terminal, but in one of its dependencies.

Dart Pub serve won't start

so I re-installed all my dev tools on a system and moved my entire project folder into it. I'm getting an error even before I open the dart editor.
when I run Pub Serve in terminal I get a
bad state: subscribing to a closed stream
or an equally confusing
Can't find pubspec.yaml
No idea why... since the exact same layout worked on a different machine.
Similarities
both machines run Windows 7
both machines have the same version of the Dart SDK and editor
both machines are 64bit (and are running the appropriate tools)
Differences
the machine not working is an Intel where the other is an AMD
the machine not working has all its Windows updates (not saying windows updates cause problems... just that problems almost always occur after updating)

Launching TaskHost.exe failed, trying to run Windows Phone 8 app?

My VS 2013 setup has been humming along fine for months now. Today I tried to update to Visual Studio 2013 Update 2 RC. Just like last time when I updated to Update 1, setup failed badly with a huge list of packages marked with the "Incorrect Hash Value" error. Unfortunately MS does not have an ISO yet for Update 2 so I can't take that route to complete the update like I did last time. Now I can't run apps on the Windows Phone emulator or on the phone (device) anymore.
I believe that the failed update caused my current deployment problems since the problem surfaced right afterwards. It could be due to some other NuGet package or Extension, but the update is the most likely cause due to the timing of events.
I did extensive reading on SO and tried all the noted solutions. None of them worked:
cleaned and rebuilt the test Windows Phone 8 project (multiple times)
restarted VS2013
rebooted
Exited VS 2013 and restarted it with the Emulator left open (for the Emulator test)
repaired the Windows Phone Emulator install
repaired the VS2013 install
Nothing works. After the IDE installs the app on to the emulator, I still an error dialog box saying:
"The application could not be launched for debugging. Ensure that the target device screen is unlocked and that the application is installed."
And in the VS2013 IDE status line I see the message: "Launching TaskHost.exe failed".
Does anyone know how to fix this? Note, I tried several WP8 projects that I know worked successfully before and none of them can deploy successfully anymore to either the Emulator or the Device.
I see this was asked a month ago, but I had this issue as well. If I left the Emulator running and tried launching it again, I would have TaskHost fail with a different error.
The following was what made it work for me.
Under the following:
Solution(Right-click) > Properties > Configuration Properties > Configuration
Ensure that your main project is set to 'Deploy.'
Have many reason to error.! So, If you doing with database such as SQLLite file or SQL compact file for your project WP, you should check it is used anywhere. Or choose Embed source copy in visual. That's my fail.And i fixed ok!
Did you try from the menus?
BUILD > Rebuild Solution
That worked for me just now.

Using Xdebug with Netbeans or Komodo fails when connecting to Mysql

I am trying to get either NetBeans or Komodo IDE to remotely debug PHP. I have a remote website installed on the development machine which is a Mac running Mountain Lion. Xdebug is installed. The website on the local machine runs normally in a browser.
However, for both NetBeans and Komodo IDE, when single stepping through the code, the attempt to execute mysqli_connect fails. In NetBeans there is the following error message:
Socket Exception occured If you have any Watches, try to remove them and restart debugger. If removing Watches does not help or you
don't have any Watches, please file an issue and provide the exact
steps to reproduce your problem. Please attach the IDE log. Attaching
your project would also be very helpful.
I have seen other people reporting this error message, but no help has been provided.
In Komodo IDE, the failure occurs at the same location, but there is no error information provided at all.
The funny thing in NetBeans is that after some single stepping through the first page of the site, if I then run the code from that point, it executes without failure and the web page is displayed in the browser! This means that the problem only occurs while single stepping.
I have seen something somewhere about a bug in NetBeans. But it seems pretty blatant that NetBeans should not be able to single step through code that tries to connect to mysql. Rather I am thinking it would be some configuration issue on my system.
Komodo IDE has the same failure whether single stepping or running any other way. It just does not get past that point.
However, please keep in mind that just running the site in a browser works fine. So what is missing that prevents the Xdebug single stepping from connecting to mysql?
** Additional information **
I have found two instances of xdebug.so on my system.
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 274508 Oct 6 2011 /opt/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20090626/xdebug.so
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 202672 Sep 20 20:01 /usr/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20090626/xdebug.so
Also, there is an /opt/local/var/db/php5/xdebug.ini which references the xdebug.so in the /opt/local path. The xdebug.so in the /usr/lib path is the one that I thought was in use and which corresponds to instructions as to where it should be installed.
These are apparently two different versions of xdebug.so. Could that be related to my problem?
You need to make sure that you are running one version of Xdebug - and also make sure that this is the latest version (2.2.1 at the moment). If you can still reproduce this issue, please file a bug report at http://bugs.xdebug.org with a short sample script (that contains all the code + data!) and a remote debugging log for a debugging session using that script (see http://xdebug.org/docs/all_settings#remote_log on how to make such a log).
