I upgraded all xserver-xorg packages in my notebook. After restart system Xorg (GDM) don't run. My screen is black. If I will go to console CTRL+ALT+FX, screen is black too. I will go to console only in single-mode and I tried run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, but without results. I haven't got /etc/X11/xorg.conf in my system. I have got integrated Intel graphics card.
View 4 RepliesI am new to Linux and installed Debian. After the Installation I started Debian and ended in a black screen. I came out there changing to a terminal (ctrl+alt+F1) but I dont know how to get Xorg running. I am using the Mainboard:Gigabyte GA-D510UD without any extras (means just the Mainboard with Ram and an IDE Hdd). here is the Log file from Xorg [URL]... System Information is in the log.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to install Xorg manually in Squeeze on my IBM X30 Thinkpad with intel graphics (it works in Lenny). I used aptitude and installed "xorg" and "fluxbox", but when I restart my computer I get a blank screen, instead of the console login request that I was expecting. (Note: I did not install any login managers). So exactly what happens is that the screen goes black (just backlight on)during boot process. Once I'm at the black screen doing CTRL+ALT+Backspac, Ctrl+Alt+Del or Ctrl+Alt+F[1-7] will not result in anything.
I tried booting with the single user mode, but same result, so the only way I could acess my log-files was by using a systemrescue-CD. What I find odd about this is that I cant find any configuration files at all. No xorg.conf anywhere in /etc, /etc/X11, nor in /home. I don't even have a /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d folder.Am I expected to write these by myself? And if Xorg is the source of my troubles, why is it starting by itself, without any installed login managers? Xorg not working is one thing, but not even being able to access the console, or log in to my computer makes it rather difficult to search for errors.
I have upgrade Ubuntu 9.10 to 10.4 on my Dell Inspiron Desktop and OKI TV monitor. After reboot the new version I can read the menu.lst on the screen and i select ubuntu 10.4 but after the screen is black permanently and the boot process stop. I have tried with a acer monitor and all is OK, but i would like use the OKI monitor. With the OKI monitor I have not problems with old versions of Ubuntu, neither Ubuntu CD Live, neither Knoppix. I have see that there is not /etc/X11/xorg.conf so I have tried with differents xorg.conf files:
a) with dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xerver-xorg
b) copying xorg.conf from Ubuntu 8.10 Live LoW Graphics mode
c) copying xorg.conf from Knoppix Live
but the result is the same : black screen I have tried also Xorg -configure but it say a warning message: "Server is running" I think that start up script dont read xorg.conf and the boot process is blocked
10.04 runs perfectly most of the time, then every once-in-awhile it crashes. The screen goes black and I have to restart. I had a similar problem with 9.10, so I reverted back to 8.04 which never crashed. I did a fresh install of 10.04.
View 9 Replies View RelatedHave tried to install 10.04 from a cd sent to me by ubuntu. lts on an x-windows medion pc mt7 (med mt 345). Previously comp. was running windows xp pro. After pressing restart at end of install process I get nothing! Black screen, no mouse control , no keyboard control, nothing at all.
Have tried putting cd in again but get nothing, on pressing restart the cd was politely ejected. Have tried rebooting a few times but get no response. Everything is switched on. So now I cannot even get a terminal up, the only thing I am fairly certain about is that the computer is sending a signal to the screen as there is Not a "no signal" message.

Was trying to play some new games, so was trying to install the ati drivers for my x15xx or something card.
anyway i am using ubuntu 10.10, so was having to try force them, using 9.10 config or something.
anyway got it installed, restarted and I get black screen have been trying to go back to "vesa" drivers or something. but been having no luck
I do not have a "/etc/X11/xorg.conf". and I cannot seam to make 1 using stuff like aticonifig --initial --input=/etc/X11/xorg.cong or anything like that
I am really stuck, even using dpkg-reconfigure or something didnt make the X11 conf
A few glitches aside, 11.2 has been very good. Today I installed realcrypt. While in yast, I noticed some other items were set to install. I accepted them along with realcrypt. After the install, clicking the -more applications- button (gnome) did not display the menu, just the mouse wait indicator. After a few tries, I decided to restart. Clicking shutdown did not present the normal menu, but instead instantly shutdown. On restart, I noticed 3-ish orphaned inode(?) messages. After boot completes I'm left with a black screen.I'm running 11.2 Gnome raid-1. The raid array appears to be fine. It emails status on boot, and I received those emails (via google) on the my laptop. I can boot to runlevel 1, so the question is, once there where do I look for cause / fix.

I have an Asus z9100 laptop with an Intel 855GM integrated graphics chip, which is running Karmic (the purpose of the laptop is to be a MythTV frontend so my understanding is that it needs to run 9.x in order to connect to the MythTV 0.22 backend - I have installed and configured this using the installable Mythbuntu package) and the laptop is subject to this bug which causes random freezes:
[URL]
So, following advice for similar freezes I've seen, I have added the following options to my grub menu.lst on the kernel line:
nolapic nomodeset
and I have edited xorg.conf so that it makes use of the vesa driver instead of the Intel driver. This results in no freezes and if I wanted to watch Myth on the laptop screen I'd be squared away. However, the laptop has a damaged screen so the point was always to output the signal to an external monitor via its VGA out.
When I attach the external monitor and boot with the setup as described, the external monitor is never detected. But I noticed that if I remove the "nolapic nomodeset" from the kernel boot line, it is detected. However, signal is only output to it during the earliest part of boot (when the Ubuntu logo is in the center of the screen before the full-screen graphic with the animated progress line), after which the external monitor goes black and all the display output goes to the laptop screen. The external monitor power button is still lit up green as if it has been detected and is receiving signal, but it's just a black screen.
get the signal out to the external monitor after the initial part of the boot process, using the vesa driver? Here is the current state of my xorg.conf:
Code:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Configured Video Device"
Driver "vesa"
EndSection

Pretty much what the title says.. a few more details:
- I installed 10.04 using the alternative install so I've been doing all this in safe mode
- I installed a newer kernel (2.6.33) and still black screen
- I tried to install an updated Intel xorg driver, but I kept getting dependency errors (xorg, x11, something else)
I read another thread on this forum from a user who is using the same platform (Intel HM55), and I got stuck at the last point (can't get Intel xorg driver to install).
I just recently purchased a DELL PowerEdge 2850 and have tried installing CentOS 5.4 on it. After the install completes and it does a first boot I get the following error on the DELL console: PROC 1ERROR, PROC 2ERROR E07F0. The monitor remains black and the system hangs. Just out of curiosity I installed Fedora 11 on it to see if it was a hardware problem. Fedora installed and booted no problem. I rebooted with Fedora installed several times and left it running for 24 hours. Everything is working great. Is there something I am missing in the CentOS 5.4 install?
Below is the Hardware Config:
Dell PowerEdge 2850
PERC 4eDi RAID Controller

View 1 Replies View RelatedThe X server in Debian seems to have a "funny" habit to suddenly start blanking the screen if I don't touch the mouse or the keyboard for a while, although I've used the xset command (xset -dpms s off) in my ~/.xinitrc to tell Xorg specifically NOT to blank the screen. I know how to disable screen blanking in /etc/X11/xorg.conf, but I'd rather not have the xorg.conf file at all.
So, I'd be interested to hear your suggestions about how to disable the Xorg screen blanking without using the xset command or the xorg.conf file. Is there some other file in /etc/X11/ that I could tweak to disable this highly annoying desire of Xorg to insist on blanking my screen after a bit of idle time?
After a install on a old Toshiba today everything looked fine. But when i tried to start Xorg it start but doesn't use my whole screen. It is not a resolution problem it just doesn't use the whole screen. Hopefully this explanation is understandable. On lenny i had the same issue but once i changed the console resolution size in grub everything was fine. Sadly this is not the case with squeeze. I already tried "X -configure" and had a look at the generated xorg.conf (posted below)

After that is tried to run the generated xorg.conf but then it just frooze.
I have a Dell PC with Debian GNU/Linux lenny.sid that was working as a game server. After solving the problem with the login to the server the system comes to root. I tried startx command but the result was command not found. I could not find the .bin/bash_profile to edit it. I had in mind to #nano /etc/inittab
1:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty1
edit it to 1:2345:respawn:/bin/login -f "root" tty1 </dev/tty1 >/dev/tty1 2>&1
I did not do it since i had to edit the .bash_profile with startx command which I was not able to spot. Whereis could not find the file. I tried to apt-get install x-windows-system but apparently I have a problem with my internet cause it can not download from Debian repositories. I check with ifconfif and later ping and i had results so i might not have problem with the internet. Is it possible the server to be set up so the user can not get into the x-window system? Did they disable anything? Do I have to install xorg and if yes can anybody give me an idea how I can do it?

I just recently got a Dell Inspiron 1525 laptop and have installed Debian on it. When I installed it, I did not install the 'Graphical desktop' packages...only the 'Standard system utilities'Everything has been fine, however when I installed Xorg (aptitude install xorg) and restarted my computer, my screen goes blank at bootup. I can see the grub menu, as well as the beginning bootup process, up until udev begins to load. I have a feeling it has something to do with KMS now being loaded but am not sure.
