I install the debian on my PC, but the monitor is not detected or not adapted ( while it is for linux CD live, and windows XP). it gives the following errors :
I want to use the file xorg.conf given by CDlive ( sidux for example) and copy it in the /etc/X11 of my debian, is it enougn or I need ohter configuration ?
Today I set up the energy settings like that:
10 minutes (screen), 20 minutes for suspension.
After around 30 minutes, I came back and switched back on the pc.
The primary monitor (VGA) was not detected, even after a system reboot.
More info about my pc:
Debian stable 8.2, kernel 3.16.0-4-686-pae.
I have an Nvidia card, but currently I am using nouveau drivers.
Two monitors: VGA (primary) and DVI (secondary).
Later I could get my primary monitor to work by switching tty (ctrl+alt+f3 and typing "startx" in the console).
I guess this is related to Xorg configuration (/etc/X11/xorg.conf is empty), but I am not really sure.
I noticed that Debian 8 has a significant bug related to detecting presence of display(s). Today, I woke my computer from sleep while the LCD monitor was unplugged from power (the monitor is connected via DVI) then I powered the monitor but nothing was displayed. Next, I connected another monitor via HDMI and both screens started working. However after disconnecting HDMI cable from the second monitor the first one with DVI stopped showing anything. The conclusion of this situation is that HDMI monitor must be connected all the time.
I thought that this is caused by graphics driver, but I experienced the problem on different machines, one with nvidia driver and DVI, and the second with default free driver and DisplayPort.
I just checked that this is related to KDE. After switching to console using ctrl+alt+f1 the screen turns on, but when I am going back via ctrl+alt+f7 the screen disappears.
Setup:
I'm using i386 Jessie Debian, have an i7 Intel processor and Gtx 745 4gb NVidia GPU.
I am running with nomodeset due to blurring issue but issue occured without nomodeset too.
Problem:
When I start Debian with just a monitor in the HDMI slot it doesn't recognize the monitor and keeps the monitor at 1024x768.
When I start Debian with monitor in both DVI and HDMI slot it only activates the DVI monitor (with proper resolution). PC has no VGA I have no DP cable.

I've recently installed Debian v8.1 and installed Nvidia driver 340.46. In nvidia-settings I am able to enable my second monitor and enable it/set it's position..etc. My second monitor is not being detected in Debian Display and is 'on' but only showing a black screen. I've tried researching and implementing various 'fixes', but I'm not having any luck.
I'm running dual GTX 570's with a monitor plugged into one each (DVI). I noticed in my xorg.conf under Section "Screen" I have an option "MultiGPU" "Off"; would this be part of the issue?
I've tried:
- purging all nvidia drivers and re-installing
- installing different versions of nvidia drivers
- add nomodeset in grub
My software and hardware information are as follows. I have Fedora 12 and KDE 4.4.5 installed on a Dell Vostro 1500 laptop. I believe it's a 64 bit processor; it's an Intel Core 2 Duo CPU. The external monitor is a Dell as well.
My problem is that my system does not seem to be detecting an external monitor that I have connected. Everything else is working just fine; however, I would like to have the option of attaching an external monitor. When I plug the external monitor into the laptop, the external monitor remains black and appears to be in power save mode. The results of xrandr -q (with or without the external monitor attached: it doesn't appear to change) are as follows.
Code:
How can I get my laptop to recognize that the external monitor is even connected? Let me know if I can be more specific or provide additional details.
I have a ViewSonic (VA1703w) LCD and Fedora 14 is not detecting it. I want to change the resolution but it is fixed to 1024x768. I have also tried to add the resolution in xorg.conf but no effect.

I went to prompt and tried xrandr to which I got the error : Can't open display.
What does that mean, and how do I fix this? I guess that my monitor is not properly identified or is not identified at all.
Does anyone know what I can do?

So I have a Samsung monitor at work (model 2343BWX) that I use in addition to my laptop screen. My computer is a T500 think pad. When I boot into ubuntu 10.04 from previously shutting down the computer in ubuntu I can't detect the monitor. If I however boot first into windows (I don't even have to enter my password, I can just press shutdown on the menu instead of logging in, and then boot into ubuntu) and it auto detects the monitor.
I have tried going to System -> Preferences Monitors and clicking "Detect Monitors" it doesn't work. Anyone know how this could be?
I have installed (successfully) Ubuntu 10.04 ppc on my powerpc g4 mac. 400mhz, 1g ram. Its the blue model. It works great, but it does not detect my monitor, and I can not change the settings past 800 X 600. I am using a Dell 19 inch monitor. Analog input (not DVI yet) resolution 12080 x 1024 60hz. I believe I need to change the info in the xconfig file (but I don't know to what or how), and I may not be saying that correctly.

I have latest nVidia drivers installed, and the main difference with last week, is that now, Display Configuration says CRT-1, unknown instead of Iiyama.
I've tried.
1. Uninstall xserver and reinstall.
2. dpkg reconfigure
3. Uninstall nVidia and come back to original Nouveau.

I'm running 10.04 as a DVR (mythtv). If the computer boots with the TV off it won't detect the settings, and when I turn the TV on nothing displays. I have to ssh into the computer and reboot it to get it to detect the display.Any idea how I can go about solving this? How can I disable autodetect and force it to use a specific setting?
View 3 Replies View RelatedToday my desktop reverted to 1024x768 resolution immediately after init. I tried changing it back but only 1024x768 and 800x600 are listed as supported in the display settings, even though my monitor supports resolutions of up to 1360x768. Rebooting the system did not solve the problem.I'm running Fedora 15 x86_64 on kernel 2.6.38.8-35 with the proprietary nvidia drivers of version 275.09.07. My monitor is a Samsung SyncMaster 933n. nvidia-settings is apparently not detecting it correctly, it thinks I'm using a CRT monitor.I was actually in this exact same situation a few months back, but it kind of went away on its own, so I didn't mind too much. So, what could be causing this, and what can I do?
View 13 Replies View RelatedI haven't manually configured XWindows in a very long time, so I'm not very certain what I need to do anymore. Hopefully someone can provide some guidance. I just built up a new system that I'm trying to connect to a 47" LCD TV that provides a VGA connection. When the computer starts booting all of the text comes up just fine (1 or 2 characters on the left are chopped, but otherwise fine). When I tried to run the installer for CentOS5.5 I ran into a problem. The monitor(TV) wasn't getting a proper signal to display XWindows. In an effort to keep going, I reconnected the PC to an old monitor and did the install from there. That worked no problem. I ran all the latest updates hoping that maybe this was fixed in a patch. I then shutdown and reconnected to my TV. no luck. When it starts XWindows the screen doesn't display anything. I've tried fooling around with modifying the xorg.conf and adding an explicit "Monitor" section and set it to 640x480 with a VertRefresh of 60 (which is supposedly an acceptable format), but no luck. Can anyone provide any guidance on how to solve this problem. BTW I do know that the VGA connector on the TV works just fine because I can hook up my laptop (Windows XP) to it.

Video card: ATI Radeon 9200 series
Monitor: ViewSonic 19"
I installed Fedora 12 configured Gnome automatically. Generally default settings. My monitor was connected directly to the video card and all was good. My video card was detected and my monitor was detected as ViewSonic Corporation 19" and I can set the screen resolution to 1280x1024. I had no xorg.conf file, as it seems that Fedora 12 does a great job of PnP to just set everything up.Now I go and complicate things by hooking up my monitor through a KVM switch. All of a sudden my monitor is "Unknown" and the best resolution I can achieve is 800x600.
Sure, I could go and reconnect without the KVM, but I want to be able use it.Is it possible to edit xorg.conf to tell it "Trust me, just use 1280x1024 at 60Hz even though you can't figure out what the monitor is"?
I tried a number of the posted suggestions to generate xorg.conf files but none of them get me what I need. A simple sample file listing that does the minimum is greatly appreciated (I can experiment from there once I get a basic setup working).And can someone explain if it is X or the ATI driver that is getting confused by the unknown monitor type. It helps to know what is actually going on in addition to a fix (so I can figure it out myself in the future). Thanks!
I installed a new copy of F13 this morning on my fairly new laptop.32 Bit Intel, 3GB Memory 120GB HDD. The problem I've got is that my Monitor/Graphics card is not getting detected and as a result I'm getting a horrible Resolution/Refresh rate. When I run
lspci | grep VGA
I get this 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 771/671 PCIE VGA Display Adapter (rev 10). how I can get my monitor/graphics recognized to work in the Full Resolution.
I recently installed Debian, using the amd64 Network Install .iso. I'm using XFCE4 as my desktop environment, and everything is working well... on my laptop's screen.
My desired setup is to have my laptop sitting on a well-ventilated shelf, closed, and to have an external monitor be my main monitor. I want this because I'm using my laptop as my "home" computer, so it never moves, and I don't like the keyboard/trackpad. My laptop has a VGA output, and I can get my desired setup on my Windows partition (not stating a preference ; just that the hardware CAN do what I want it to).
I've been working my way around the Internet for a few days, now, and I've got the commercial NVIDIA driver installed. If I run sudo nvidia-config --twinview I can get my external monitor to be part of the display, which is great, but it's part of a dual-screen monitor setup, which is not what I want at all, because (a) XFCE's multiple virtual desktops are good enough for me and (b) my graphics card is integrated, and I'm trying to squeeze every drop of performance out of my laptop that I can (1 gig of RAM; the less that my graphics card eats into it, the better). Plus, it'd be annoying to accidentally drop something on my laptop's screen, and then have to dig it out of the shelf in order to undo it. I'm not saying that I'm consistently clumsy, but I'd eventually end up doing it.
I am new to Ubuntu. I installed Ubuntu 8.04 and it detected my Acer monitor AL1716 correctly and it works fine. However when I installed Ubuntu 11.04 it shows the monitor as " Unknown Monitor" and the maximum resolution is 1024x768 and I cannot set the native resolution which is much higher. My motherboard has Intel 845G chipset and built in graphics. I tried Ubuntu Software Center, but couldnot solve the problem.

I just did a fresh install of debian (amd64) on my laptop (Dell Inspiron 1520). My wireless network is not being detected, but I'm pretty sure that my wireless device IS being detected.

It didn't complain after that, but I got the same message again later on, but again it didn't complain when I continued the installation.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am installing Linux for the first time right now and I am facing a bit of an issue when it comes to network hardware driver installation. The NIC on my motherboard is a Marvel 88E1111 (computer is very old). During the installation of Debian, I got to a menu which read "No Ethernet card detected. If you know the name of the driver needed by your Ethernet card you can select it from the list", then provides me with said list of driver names.
However, the only driver I could find that came close the NIC I am using was one called just "Marvel", and selecting actually didn't do anything (screen flashes blue and returns me to the same menu). So I continued by selecting the "none of the above" option, and now the new menu reads: "A driver for your hardware is not available. You may need to load drivers from removable media (...)". So I thought I should google for the drivers and see what I can find. The official site of the company that made my NIC doesn't even list my model in their drivers' list (to be expected since it is so old).
Then I found this: URL.., but I was expecting more of a download than the source code itself.
