Jun 14, 2011For some reason my laptop runs hotter when running Fedora, than it does with windows. I am wondering if the problem is with video. Currently using default video driver.

Ubuntu :: Video Card Swap - Screen Using A Default Video Driver
Jan 25, 2011If I take out the existing video card and put in another one of a different type (but not a different brand), how does Ubuntu behave? I know what Windows typically does. Windows starts up the screen using a default video driver which is at least 1024 by 768 and then asks you what this new bit of hardware is and asks where the drivers are. I'm pretty sure Ubuntu has default drivers of its own, but I don't know what their resolution is.

Jul 15, 2010In WinXP, with the nvidia drivers, there's fan control.By default, out of the box, my NVIDIA 8800 GTX card's fan blows at full speed (noisy). So when I'm booting up and I'm in the BIOS.. it's at full speed and loud. Once Windows loads up (and the drivers kick in), the fan goes almost completely silent. It stays that way until I load up something 3D intensive.. basically it runs the fan as needed.Does the default display driver shipped with Fedora 12 do this out of the box?What about the nouveau driver?How can I see the nvidia fans' speed while using the default display driver?

Oct 19, 2010I am using Fedora 13 (64-bit). My video card is ATI Radeon HD 4650. I am having problems with the standard Linux driver and somebody has suggested that I should install an ATI-specific video driver. I am told that I should start the PC in failsafe mode, and then tell it to install the "restricted" ATI driver.

Red Hat / Fedora :: Will Not Boot After Video Driver Update
Mar 28, 2011However, I have had this issue with Windows computers as well, I just don't know how to beat around this problem and fix it with the new OS.
For starters, I have a Sony Vaio laptop (VGN-NS295J) that's running a ATI Mobility 3430 Video card on F14 64bit.
From the beginning, my device was not recognized with a good driver, so I started jumping through hoops reading forums of how to properly install this driver and get rid of the on board video. After I was successful (so I thought) I rebooted my system, and now after Fedora finishes loading the operating system, the screen goes gray and I can start typing in whatever I want.
I can still log in by Ctrl+Alt+F2 or whatever it is, but I'm stuck to text, and don't know my way around well enough yet.
I believe the issue is that it's trying to treat my laptop as two moniters, or defaulted my monitor incorrectly perhaps? At least this is what always happened to me in the past with Windows.
I just fresh installed F14 today, so I don't have anything of importance on the HD.
*UPDATE* Okay, so i've figured out hitting escape lists two versions of Linux there off the boot. The top one repeats the message I've just given, and the second one will go to the Fedora screen right after the boot (where it fills the emblem diagonally), then the screen flashes like it's starting to run my video card, and the screen goes black.

Fedora :: FC 11 - Video Driver Update Causes Lockup On Boot
Oct 22, 2009I have a new Fedora 11 install with all updates working on my: Dell XPS M1330 laptop with nVidia GeForce 8400M GS
I wanted to install compiz fusion on Gnome so I followed these step by step instructions from:
Fedora refused to boot, locking up during the process.
Here is what happens...
After updates I had 3 options at boot up:
A) If I choose the TOP one (newest) it will boot up to a black screen and nothing else, I get a white block which moves with mouse. I cant get a shell and any key I hit just echoes back...ctr-alt-del will result in normal shutdown process displaying.
If I watch the services start (F1) I see all -OK- except: nvidia.ko: Driver already enabled
The boot continues with all OK until it gets to:
STARTING atd:
at which time the screen flashes for about 7 seconds and locks up.
B) If I choose MIDDLE boot option and watch the boot process I see most services start OK except:
-[OK]
Checking for module nvidia.ko [FAILED]
nvidia.ko for kernel 2.6.30.8-64.fc11.i686.PAE was not found [WARNING]
The nvidia driver will not be enabled until found [WARNING]
Driver already disabled
-[OK]
Then the services continue on with [OK] until a few seconds later the screen halts with a mess of colors and symbols on screen and system stops booting. Any key pressed simply echoes back with no other result. Again ctrl-alt-del refreshes screen and shutdown of services proceeds normally.
Fedora :: Get The VBox Video Driver To Work In FC12?
Feb 28, 2010Host: CentOS 5.4 x32
Guest: FC12 x32
Virtual machine: Virtual Box (VBox) 3.1.4
The 640 x 480 video display on my FC12 guest is driving me nuts! The VBox Guest Additions are installed. How do I get FC12 to recognize the VBox video driver?
Extra information:
Auto resize works great on my Windows guests. On FC12, I just get a lot of extra white space.
FC12's installer does not detect a video card. You have to use the stand display option (second one down) to get FC12 to go into a full graphical installer. If you use the regular install, hoping to do a graphical install, FC 12 only install the bare basics. No video support. You get what looks like a rescue cd. No Gnone, no X etc.
I do believe that FC12 has no idea that the VBox's fake video adapter even exists.

Jul 8, 2010I install security updates - did so and ended up with a copy of fedora that goes into a loop. I suspect the prob is the driver to my video adapter. To run, I need to interrupt grub with an escape. It then shows me two choices the bad one 2.6.32.12-115.fc12.i686 and the old good one 2.6.31.5.- 127.fc12.i686 It defaults to the bad one, I change it to the good one and tell it ot proceed. this is inconvenient
I see that in /boot/grub/grub.conf the 2 systems are described I beleive that if I merely edit that file, taking out the refernece to the bad one, I will be ok That will leave the bad one on the disk but at least I wont have to go thru the ritual of interrupting grub. If I want to delete the bad one - after I've taken care of the grub.conf file, what do I do?

General :: Video Driver - Some Video Games Are Unusually Slow
Feb 13, 2011I installed Debian recently, and everything seems to be working fine, except some video games are unusually slow compared to what they would normally be. Tremulous, for example, worked reasonably fine on this computer with Windows XP, but now (Debian) for some reason it's laggy even on the title screen.
Something wrong with my video drivers?
All of the information I know:
The computer is a Dell Dimension 3000
RAM: 256mb? Gnome System Monitor says 247.1mb, SWAP: about 730mb
Processor: Intel Celeron 2.40GHz
HD: 25gb out of a 40gb HD free, and an external 1tb HD with about 920gb free
Debian Release 6.0 (squeeze)
Kernel Linux 2.6.32-5-686
GNOME 2.30.2 (I've tried LXDE also, no noticeable change)
Only linux on the machine.

Aug 6, 2011I am running gnome 3 on ubuntu 11.04, a clean installation from the gNatty version, 32 bit. The machine is a Lenovo t420, with 6GB RAM and a integrated video card.
Everything is running smoothly but not for games. I tried urban terror, Tremulous, Nexuiz, all of the lags from the very beginning as if I was using a machine 5 years ago to run today's video games (ie, takes 10 seconds for a mouse move a show, audio lags, .etc). From my experience it should come from video card driver not installed, but the update manager shows all device works fine (indeed, the screen resolution is 1600X900).
