Fedora Hardware :: F14 - No HDMI Port Detected / No Display?
Dec 1, 2010
Acer Aspire 5820 TimelineX, Mobility Radeon 5650, running open source radeon drivers. Laptop has VGA output (haven't tried it yet, will later tonight, I suspect it works) and an HDMI output. Monitor connected to laptop through HDMI causes garbled picture (either a set of lines made of little square blocks or a pink vertical line running down the leftmost edge with white, dashed horizontal lines travelling up the screen from the bottom to the top and repeating). The previous happens at startup, the latter happens if I disconnect the monitor and plug it back in again after logging in.
Running KDE 4. HDMI port is not detected (does not show up in gnome-config-display or in krandr or in xrandr). It does show my laptop's built in screen and my VGA output, but does not list my HDMI output anywhere. HDMI seems to show up in a message in dmesg, but other than that, no.
Included is the output of a few commands. All commands were run with the monitor plugged in to HDMI. 'monitor-probe-using-X radeon' failed with "Unrecognized option: -probeonly". Monitor does not display anything if plugged in on startup (some people got something, then it disappeared when X started). I haven't played with Xorg.conf yet, I'm not sure what to write for HDMI output. I haven't tried the fglrx drivers yet ((*shudders*)). I can't get any info on this problem, other people have had similar issues but they had trouble with getting a particular resolution to work or no sound through HDMI. I don't care about sound, just want a picture. Monitor is an LG Flatron L246WH. I can use VGA if push comes to shove, but I'd really like to get HDMI working.

I have a Laptop with Fedora 15, with an NVidia graphic card, when I attach my TV screen as secondary screen using the HDMI cable video works perfectly, but sound comes only from my laptop's integrated speakers; if I open Pulse configuration and set to "HDMI output" profile, no sound comes from either the TV set or my laptop's speakers.
I've tried checking the .conf file, updating NVidia drivers, and anything that I have read in this forum but I still have no sound from the TV set when I use the HDMI cable.

I have the following problem: syslog is constantly writing to disk, because the kernel spams these messages
Code:
Apr 4 14:14:56 aspire kernel: [138498.252610] display port opened
Apr 4 14:14:56 aspire kernel: [138498.299755] display port closed

I just got a new laptop, and installed fedora 13 on it. I have had no major problems, until i tried to hook up a external monitor. It does not show up in the gnome-display application, and the keyboard switching button combination (Fn+f#) does not work. On my past laptop, this worked fresh from the install, f8->f10->f11.
System:
Dell Latitude E6410
nVidia Corporation GT218 [NVS 3100M] (rev a2)
Code:
$ yum list installed | grep nvidia
kmod-nvidia.x86_64 1:256.53-1.fc13.4 @rpmfusion-nonfree-updates
kmod-nvidia-2.6.34.7-56.fc13.x86_64.x86_64
nvidia-settings.x86_64 1.0-6.fc13 @rpmfusion-nonfree-updates
[code]....
PS: is there a way to make it so that a box as above is contracted, requiring a click to expand?

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.
xrandr:
xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default
Screen 0: minimum 640 x 480, current 1920 x 1080, maximum 1920 x 1080
default connected primary 1920x1080+0+0 0mm x 0mm
1920x1080 0.00*
1280x1024 0.00
1024x768 0.00
800x600 0.00
640x480 0.00
Which is my dvi monitor, no other screens detected. Is there any way to get the HDMI to run properly?

I am interested in finding out the best way to get my audio to work from HDMI through my NVIDIA card.
[code]....
I don't get an option for HDMI. Here is the interesting part. The sounds work sometimes but not all the times. Most of the time the sound works on the OS default sounds but wont work for movies, streaming and music. I am running pulseaudio. I am new to setting this audio up. The headphones work fine.

Having some problems with HDMI-Audio on my HTPC: I don't get sound out of HDMI port! For system info look there: Sysprofile
OS is Suse11.3 64Bit with KDE now!
At "System-Settings/Multimedia/Audio Output" there are the following devices in the given order:
HDA NVidia (ALC662 rev1 Analog)
HDA NVidia (ALC662 rev2 Digital)
HDA NVidia, NVIDIA HDMI (HDMI Audio)
That's consistent with the connector layout of the mainboard. Playing "Test sound" while marked the HDMI Audio is not causing any output with HDMI, while analog works just fine!
I also installed the nVidia prop drivers with the packet manager.
In YAST there is one card found in the sound section::
Idex=0 and Card Model=MCP79 High Definition Audio

I realise this is an issue that has been covered a lot, one way or another, but at least from what I've been able to find, most of the discussion centres around getting HDMI audio to work. However, I have problems even getting the video to work from my laptop's HDMI output.
I have an HP dv6z-se, with an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 6550 (1 Gb) video card and using F14/KDE. My problem is that when I go to System Settings/Display/Monitor, Fedora doesn't actually seem to realise my computer even has an HDMI output and only displays options for VGA and my integrated screen.
When I plug it into my LCD screen, sometimes I get a 'No Signal' message and sometimes I get garbled static and a message about unrecognised input and the frequency it's coming at.
I read elsewhere in the forum that someone was able to get video working by editing their xorg.conf file, so I went in and tried to see if I could replicate that, but none of the files in my xorg.conf.d folder had anything related to video outputs (as far as I can tell at this point).

I just bought a new desktop with integrated intel graphics and built in HDMI. I don't have a monitor, only a 42 inch LCD TV. Now, when I plugged in the HDMI cable, when ubuntu loaded, it was oversized(overscanned) cutting off both panels(think zoomed in a bit). After failing to fix, I bought an ATI HD4350. When using the open source ati drivers(default on reboot), the screen looked perfect and fit perfectly when using the DVI to HDMI cable to the TV, was a bit UNDERsized when using a regular HDMI cable to the HDMI port on the new video card. Now, when I installed Catalyst...same problem as before. Entire image was overscanned using either port. Decided to get a better video card anyways, so returned ATI for Nvidia 9500. When booting again into a clean install, with nv drivers and using DVI-> HDMI cable(9500 doesn't have HDMI out), the image again fit perfectly on the TV. When installing the Nvidia proprietary driver, image goes back to being overscanned(Exactly same proportion as intel HDMI out and ATI with catalyst). Thankfully Nvidia gives an overscan correction tool that I scaled the picture down with, but it's ever so slightly off center or our of proportion(that is, it leaves small black strip on either side when height is adjusted perfectly).
In a nutshell, the open source drivers display perfectly. Proprietary and intel drivers are overscanned. Now, to confuse you anymore, with Lucid, even the open source ATI driver is overscanned by default. I'm trying to track this problem down and have no idea where to start.

I've been having some trouble configuring my Nvidea GT 430 with my LCD TV. When I specify the larger resolutions like 1920x1080, there is always one inch trimmed off around edge. First using Linux Mint 10 LXDE, I booted with the new graphics card in. Without loading any drivers, I was able to select 800x600 or 640x480 and those had an inch of black around the screen. I installed the proprietary Drivers and then the screen was cut off a bit on the edges and the text was so tiny i couldn't see anything.
I then tried Linux Mint 11 Gnome. The text was readable, but still couldn't get the screen to match the TV edges correctly. I think it is a problem with my TV as this happens in windows and Linux. My TV is older and doesn't allow me to resize the screen within its menus. However, in windows I am able to use the Nvidea tools to resize my resolution to a custom size. It turned about to be about 1800x1020. I only really like using windows unless I absolutely have to though.. Is there a way to manually resize the display area in the xorg.config file? or any other workaround?

I just purchased a new notebook, namely an HP Pavilion dv6, with a GeForce GT 230M. Also, I have a neat 1920x1200 display with an HDMI connector, which fits nicely with the corresponding outlet on the computer. Now I'd like the external display to be the main display when connected, with the internal display as an expansion to the desktop, and the internal display should, obviously, be primary when on its own.
The reality looks quite different: Not too surprising, with the default drivers I got only a 800x600 resolution, but with the correct drivers installed, I got the full resolution on the integrated display. My external HDMI-display, however, is dead. With the xorg.conf file being obsolete I can't really use the configuration app by nvidia, can I?

I want to do a simple port redirect, i.e. whatever comes trough whatever interface on port AAAA will get redirected to port BBBBI thought that iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING --source 0/0 --destination 0/0 -p tcp --dport AAAA -j REDIRECT --to-ports BBBBhowever it doesn't work, e.g. nc -v -w2 -z localhost AAAA gives:
nc: connect to localhost port AAAA (tcp) failed: Connection refused
while
nc -v -w2 -z localhost BBBB

I'm running an ubuntu maverick server, and I'm having a slight problem with networking. I've only got one ethernet line running into my room, and I've got loads of computers. The server has 2 ethernet ports, one integrated into the motherboard, one on a PCI card that I took from my old server. The on board ethernet never worked on my old server- but I only tried it out post-install, it was hooked up to the card during install (For the record, networking on linux has *never* worked for me if I installed then plugged in the networking stuff after the fact). So I just used the card instead. Transferred the hard drive into a new machine, and lo and behold, it would only work after I transferred in the card from the old one. What I wanted to set up is a basic NAT system, where the network connection is routed through from my server to my main desktop- but when I run ifconfig, my card is not detected, just lo and eth0. How can I fix this?

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?

I've just installed Zentyal (formally eBox) which is a firewall built on Ubuntu server 10.04. Unfortunately my PCI modem is not automatically detected upon installation and the Zentyal community forum is not very active.Is it possible to get the 4-port Solos Multiport PCI ADSL2+ Modem card from Traverse Technologies working under Zentyal?Apparently the driver is included in kernel versions 2.6.29 and later so I was surprised that it was not automatically detected and working upon installation. It is also available from Zentyal was able to detect their single port card, the Vicking PCIADSL2+ttp://www.traverse.com.au/productvi...product_id=115). This card worked out-the-box - all I had to do was enter my static IP details! Is there any way to achieve the same functionality with the Solos 4 port?

Using squeeze with a GeForce4 MX 440 video card (NVIDIA) I have a monitor (4/3 aspect ratio, 1024x768 usually), and a TV connected via S-video After installing the NVIDIA driver using the NVIDIA binaries I managed to have a cloned twin screen configuration working.
However, the monitor is (wrongly) detected as having size 1824x768 (aspect ratio is widescreen) Using system monitor, I can set the correct size, but only for one session; besides, the login screen too is messed up the xorg.conf file seems right: proper resolution modes are set; xorg.0.log too

i am running ncat (netcat's new version from nmap) on centos . I am listening on different ports. My question is , is it possible that when a connection is received on a port say 123, i redirect this connection to a different port and use the 123 port again for listening connections. ncat has an option -k which u can add with -l , it will force fully listen on the port. It can accept multiple connections on a single port but i want that once a client connects on to 123 port, he is forwarded to some other port and no longer on 123.

In our company, we have one server with kernel, 2.6.18. because of our neads, we had to buy new hard disk,that slax live cd detects that as "Ibex Peak 2 port SATA IDE Controlle".Apparently this kernel does not support this device.Unfortunately according to our policy(definitely some dependency on company's softwares installed on this kernel) we can not upgrade our kernel.
