Debian Multimedia :: X Won't Start After Installing Nvidia Driver

Mar 27, 2015

I tried to install drivers for my GeForce GT 630M graphic card. At first, I just installed nvidia-detect and there was a suggestion to install nvidia-driver:

Code: Select allsudo apt-get install nvidia-detect
nvidia-detect
sudo apt-get install nvidia-driver

After reboot, there was a sad ?monitor like this one: [URL] ....

After first failure, I tried to use Debian wiki tutorial for Debian Jessie (probably I should have done this at first )

Code: Select allaptitude install linux-headers-$(uname -r|sed 's,[^-]*-[^-]*-,,') nvidia-legacy-304xx-kernel-dkms
echo -e 'Section "Device"
Identifier "GPU Nvidia"
Driver "nvidia"
EndSection' > /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-nvidia.conf

But also without success. Now I can't use X at all.

Hardware :: Installing Nvidia Driver In Fedora 10?

Dec 1, 2008

I am having a world of trouble getting my old GeForce2 MX400 to work in a fresh install of Fedora 10. I included the RPMFusion directories, so my yum repolist includes:

rpmfusion-free RPM Fusion for Fedora 10 - Free enabled : 324
rpmfusion-free-updat RPM Fusion for Fedora 10 - Free - Update enabled : 0

But when I type yum list | grep nvidia, nothing comes up. When I type yum install kmod-nvidia or yum install akmod-nvidia, it says there's no package like this. Have these been updated for Fedora V10 yet? If they haven't, I guess I will just have to use another distro. BTW, when I tried installing the driver from the NVIDIA website, it says it needs to recompile the Kernel, and after installing gcc and make, it still gave some weird error about how with kernel 2.6 it can't find the proper kernel headers or something like that. I heard somebody post that you shouldn't use the NVIDIA drivers, they mess up OpenGL, you should you Livna kmod-nvidia.

1) Would you recommend livna kmod-nvidia or Nvidia's own driver's for a GeForce2 MX400 and Fed 10?

2) Whichever you recommend, could you give some clue how to get around either problem I'm having?

Fedora :: X Doesn't Seem To Start After Kernel And Nvidia Driver Update?

Oct 29, 2010

I'm running Fedora 13 x64 and updated the kernel to the latest version (2.6.34.7-56 to 2.6.34.7-61). I use the proprietary nvidia drivers (currently 260.19.12) so I had to compile the kernel module against the new kernel sources and reinstall the driver. The process was apparently successful, but when I try to start X nothing happens, it's as if the computer had been suspended, my monitor acts like it isn't receiving any input. I have full runlevel 3 access, and the system seems pretty much fine up to that point. Nvidia's own sanity tests which are built into the installer reported no problems with my driver.

Red Hat / Fedora :: Disabling Nouveau / Installing NVIDIA Driver?

Nov 26, 2010

First some specs:
Fedora 13 (Goddard) 32-bit
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260

The DVI output on my card works just fine to my monitor, which is what I've been using. I installed no drivers; it just worked. However, now I need a duplicate screen to be given via the s-video output, but it doesn't work. Nothing is being given to the tv and nothing is being detected under monitors. From what I understand, this is because I need to install the appropriate Driver.

I downloaded my driver from the nvidia website, but it won't install. it tells me I need to disable nouveau.

Fedora Installation :: Nvidia Driver Causes Stack Trace On Service Start

Apr 4, 2009

Just installed a Sparkle GeForce 8400 GS on my Dell Dimension 2350 running FC9. As stated, every time the system goes to start the card, a stack trace occurs. I know the first thing that everyone will ask for is the output from the stack trace, but for the life of me I can't capture it. Tried grabbing the STDOUT and SDTERR from the 'service start' command, but nothing interesting is ever there. If anyone knows if and where such things get stored, just letting me know that would help. I assumed there would be something in /var/log, but no. For some reason, there's a lot of python errors in the output. I imagine I could try to type in as much of the output as possible, but I'm hoping someone has seen this before.

Anyway, I've tried the Nvidia install executable, the nvidia-newest RPMs, the nvidia-96xx RPMs and they all fail the same way. I also can't get the card to come up as the primary device on boot, which I don't think should be a problem since they all boot into VGA mode, don't they? If I disable the internal video setup in the BIOS, the machine freezes on bootup with blinking lights on the keyboard, which I imagine is the BIOS's way of telling me there's no monitor available.

I also tried getting the nv and nouveau drivers going with no luck. They are installed on the machine, but I'm embarrassed to say I don't know how to get them configured. Not really a driver guy, I guess. Also, the reason I installed this card is to get TVOUT, and I don't know if generic drivers will have support for that sort of thing.

At this point, I'm just looking for a way forward. One thing I remember is that when I removed the 'fglrx' drivers (because they conflicted with the NVIDIA stuff) I remember that a few python/fglrx based packages went with it. I'm wondering if that could be at the root of the failure, given the python errors in the stack trace.

Fedora :: Installing Nvidia's Propriety Driver From The RPMFuzion Repos

Mar 18, 2010

I borked (broke) my install of Fedora 12 I have an Nvidia 6600 GT AGP card. I was using the Mesa driver. I wanted something better so I tried installing Nvidia's propriety driver from the RPMFuzion repos. Everything seemed to go fine until I tried restarting the computer. It shows the F logo in a balloon type circle filling up and then goes to a black screen with a blinking cursor in the top left corner and stays that way. If I press F2 when Fedora is starting then I see a list of what is happening. It gets to the point of ''Starting atd.........OK'' and then it stops and the screen starts flashing. Curiously, earlier in the list it shows that the Nvidia driver starts OK.

If I had to guess I'd say that the xorg.conf file has some setting in it that isn't working with the Nvidia driver. But I have no idea how to get to a prompt so that I can go to the folder containing the xorg.conf file and rebuild the file. Or, if you know better than that and know what I've really done then I'm listening.

Fedora :: Installing NVidia's Driver With Their Shellscript But It Didn't Work

Jan 10, 2011

I'm trying Fedora for the first time. I tried installing NVidia's driver with their shellscript but it didn't work for lots of reasons. Has anyone done this before?:[URL].. Does it work? I never used a distro with a package manager before. Aren't there several different drivers for different NVidia cards? How do the instructions in that link make you get the correct driver? And then does it create an /etc/X11/xorg.conf file?

EDIT: or is the Neaveau driver good enough already? I can't figure out if it's basically a finished product or not.

Red Hat / Fedora :: FC12 Fails To Start After Installing Kmod-nvidia

Jan 23, 2010

After installing nvidia drivers (sudo yum install kmod-nvidia), Fedora12 (kernel 2.6.31.12/5) fails to start. To be more exact, it show the 'loading screen', and then the screen gets all scrambled. Trying to switch the ttys doesn't work either (though I can boot in runlevel 3).

I know that there might be some conflicts with nouveu, but i followed the steps from 'Fedora Nvidia Driver Install Guide' (not allowed to post URLs), so I guess nouveu isn't exactly my problem(?).

Another puzzling thing about this, is that I can boot and use FC12 from VMware. No problems there. I also tried removing/reinstalling the kmod-nvidia (and everything else nvidia related), but the problem persists.

Specs: Intel core2duo t7300, nvidia 8600m gs, 2gb ram.

PS tried nvidia installer previously, and problem was the same, so I reinstalled FC12 at that time.

OpenSUSE Install :: NVIDIA Driver Slows X And KDE Start?

Apr 19, 2011

I have recently installed openSUSE 11.4 x86_64 on my laptop, with NVIDIA driver (260.19.44,Geforce 9300M GS).Performance is good, but it slows the boot process: The NVidia logo appears and stays on the screen for 10 seconds aproximately.KDE start is very slow also. I have tried to fix it by adding nomodeset to menu.lst and settting sysconfig variable NO_KMS_IN_INITRD to yes,with no success.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: X Does Not Start After Nvidia Driver Installation On 10.10?

Feb 16, 2011

I am trying to install ubuntu 10.10 on my new computer: an Asus U33Jc. It is a 64bit machine. Everything seems Ok until I try to install the nvidia drivers. First, I tried to install it through the graphical interface as it popped up shortly after the install. Then, I tried to install the most up to date driver (290.19.36) found on nvidia's website. In both cases I get the same problem.

When I boot the computer it freezes at startup typically at the stage: "Checking battery state..." but not only (sometines before or after). In any case I never get to a graphical interface. I looked at many forums on the web (here here here and here for instance). But no solution work so far. Apparently there is a conflict with nouveau so I have blacklisted it. It seems the computer does not send the information on the good output, so I tried to twick my xorg.conf in different ways without any result.

Ubuntu :: Compiz Do Not Auto-start After Nvidia New Driver Upgrade

Dec 1, 2009

I'm a Karmic user, using a Nvidia Geforce 9500GT video Card.

I'm telling you about my GPU, because since I upgraded to the 190.42 Nvidia "official" new drivers, what's happening is:

My Compiz is no more able to save it's configuration across the sessions, and every time I close my PC or when I simply need to restart my active session, Compiz needs to be started again manually, It do not auto-activate by the compiz setting preferences.
Doing: System --> Preferences --> gnome-appearance-properties (TAB: "Visual effects") and click on "normal" checkbox, to activate the compiz visual effects.

Is there anyone able to teach me how to save the compiz activation, in order to avoid the manual, boring, repetitive, activation each time?

OpenSUSE :: Lost Fonts After Installing NVIDIA Driver?

Sep 23, 2010

I have installed SUSE 11.3 and I am using KDE4. I also installed the font "misc-console".

After installing the NVIDIA driver 256.53 the font misc-console becomes useless because it is displayed so much slanted that it is imposible to read. However, if I disable the NVIDIA driver (by replacing "nvidia" with "nv" in xorg.conf), then it works fine. It also works fine in KDE3 and the NVIDIA driver. So, it seems to be a combination between NVIDIA and KDE4. A lot other fonts are also overly slanted and unreadable (like "Sony fixed", "misc fixed", etc.).

If I launch konsole from a terminal, I receive the following warning:

konsole(6928) Konsole::TerminalDisplay::setVTFont: Using an unsupported variable-width font in the terminal. This may produce display errors.

Is there a way that I can use "misc-console" without having to uninstall the NVIDIA driver? I'm just used to this font for my terminal.

The same happens whether I install the driver manually or through YAST, 32 or 64 bit. The video card is NVIDIA 8400GS, the system Athlon 64 4400+
