I want to install the fglrx drivers , I apt-get install fglrx-driver, fglrx-glx & fglrx-control , The packages & dependencies download fine but when apt tries to install them the fglrx-modules-dkms fails .

The Kernel is 2.6.35.

Debian :: Install Bigmem Kernel With Ati Catalyst FGLRX ?

Jan 14, 2011

I'm running Debian Squeeze/current fine with the default kernel & ATi's Catalyset drivers. I'm struggling to get the display drivers to work with the bigmem kernel as I've got 4GB ram on my machine so might as well try to enable it.

I can have my system work with the normal Squeeze kernel by installing the normal kernel headers & then FGLRX drivers, but after additionally installing the bigmem kernel & headers (linux-image-2.6-686-bigmem & linux-headers-2.6-686-bigmem) I cannot get the system to reach X after removing & then re-installing the video drivers.

Debian Hardware :: Fglrx Driver For X1400 In Squeeze?

Jul 23, 2011

From the wiki page I know the ATI Mobility Radeon X1400 card is no longer supported by the new fglrx driver in squeeze. Is there a way to use the older driver from lenny? I'm on the radeon driver and the glxgrears performance is pretty low.

Debian :: Fglrx And /etc/init.d/gdm3 Start Not Working In Squeeze

Jul 31, 2010

Here is my xorg.conf when I attempt to use fglrx:

Section "Device"
Identifier      "ATI RADEON HD4850"
#   Driver "ati"
Driver  "fglrx"
EndSection

Also, doing /etc/init.d/start/ gdm3 says Starting GNOME display manager: gdm3 but it doesn't do anything. I tried pressing ctrl+f1 all the way to ctrl+f12 and nothing. What does work however is sudo gdm3 (with the "ati"/"radeon" driver --- nothing works at all with fglrx).

I am trying to get fglrx working because I want to fix this compiz issue I've been having here which could be related to the shortcomings of the "ati"/"radeon" driver: viewtopic.php?f=10&t=40991&p=312577#p312577

Debian Hardware :: Building ATI Fglrx Driver 10.12 - Squeeze 64bit

Dec 17, 2010

I am trying to build the ATI fglrx 10.12 driver using the ATI installer on debian Squeeze 64bit.

Todo this I run the following command:
./ati-driver-installer-10-12-x86.x86_64.run --buildpkg Debian/testing

Which produces this output:

Software :: Fglrx & Debian Squeeze Not Letting Xorg Start?

Feb 16, 2010

A few days ago I ditched the user friendly world of Ubuntu and installed Debian Squeeze amd64 (testing) over it. I did not install the suggested Gnome 'X desktop' in favour of booting to the terminal and starting X once logged in as a user.

Everything was fine except for the fact Xvesa was used instead of Xorg as the system did not have the required Fglrx driver. I'm using an Acer ASPIRE 5536 with an ATI Radeon HD 3200 Graphics stuffed in it, which certainly beats intel GMA.

Unfortunately the drivers for it are proprietary.

On Ubuntu this was automatically detected and I was asked if I wanted to sell my soul and enable the restricted drivers. On debian however I have to download a shell-script of the ATI website to install the fglrx module.

Following this guide I downloaded the correct file (Under motherboard/something) and ran it as root.

I couldn't run it with any --buildpky Debian/XXX option, they all failed.

Code:

General :: Update The Kernel From 2.6.16 On Debian Squeeze?

Feb 12, 2010

I just did an update of my Debian system from lenny to squeeze as described here. I got some errors during the install, saying that glibc couldn't be updated. I did an apt-get -f install, which gives me the following warning: WARNING: this version of the GNU libc requires kernel version 2.6.18 or later. Please upgrade your kernel before installing glibc.

The installation of a 2.6 kernel could ask you to install a new libc first, this is NOT a bug, and should NOT be reported. In that case, please add lenny sources to your /etc/apt/sources.list and run: apt-get install -t lenny linux-image-2.6 Then reboot into this new kernel, and proceed with your upgrade dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.10.2-2_i386.deb (--unpack): subprocess new pre-installation script returned error exit status 1 Errors were encountered while processing:

Debian Configuration :: Fglrx Isn't Working With The Latest Liquorix Kernel

Nov 5, 2010

For quite a long time now, I haven't even needed to re-install video drivers most of the time. However, ever since version 2.6.36-0.dmz.4, they haven't been. I booted my system after installing that kernel, re-installed the video drivers, and when that didn't work, completely removed them and re-installed them, and it still didn't work. Well, I was told that the installation was successful but even after restarting it appeared that they weren't working. I installed 2.6.36-0.dmz.5 today and the same problem persists. I tried an older kernel version (2.6.36-4 something) and they worked fine.

Debian :: Radeon Xpress 200 Problem On Debian Squeeze - Kernel 2.6.30

Sep 18, 2009

After dist-upgrade a few days ago, X refuses to kick in.

Xorg.0.log reads

Code:

Fatal server error:

no screens found

Please consult the The X.Org Foundation support at http://wiki.x.org

Please also check the log file at "/var/log/Xorg.0.log" for additional information. lshw reads that Xpress 200M is claimed by radeonfb driver.

At this moment, no fglrx packages are installed.

System is Toshiba laptop.

I do not think ATI dropped support, however, even without fglrx, nothing works.

Debian Configuration :: Kernel BUG In Squeeze 2.6.32-5-686 ?

Oct 21, 2010

I installed Debian Squeeze from a net install to a raid 1 array. I have been having a lot of troubles related to being able to write to one or more of the mounted drives - even touch gives me errors.

The most interesting line from dmesg is:

Here is the full output from dmesg:

I found a thread that indicated that this bug was fixed in the next kernel version: 2.6.32-6. I am willing to upgrade the kernel to get rid of my problems. Is a squeeze kernel at 2.6.32-6 or higher available? If so, where? I have not compiled my own kernel, and am not very interested in getting into that.

Debian :: Kernel Cannot Be Found On Squeeze DVD?

Jun 6, 2011

I'm attempting to dual boot my computer with Slackware, Debian and Windows. I've installed Lilo to the mbr from Slackware, i've edited my lilo.conf file so I can boot Debian. When I boot debian though, it says it's boot kernel 2.6.37 which is the slackware kernael it fails to load the modules. I think my problem is in the lilo.conf file in the debian line, "image = /boot/vmlinuz", if I've understood correctly I should put the debian kernals name after that line, I've done as I saw on the internet, but it comes up with, "kernel can not be found" or something similar to that. I think it's looking for it in a slackware directory. Is there a place on the debian dvds (i've all eight) I can get the kernel?

Debian Configuration :: Squeeze: Downgrade Kernel To 2.6.32-29?

Feb 17, 2011

downgrade my squeeze installation to kernel 2.6.32-29 (I think I have -30 now).

- what is the proper way to downgrade to that version of the kernel (I got my current kernel version when I installed squeeze few days ago and the official repo does not seem to have the -29 version anymore)?

- how to prevent that future automatic updates "upgrade" me again to the non-working version?

Debian Configuration :: Kernel Version In Squeeze ?

Mar 15, 2011

Laptop Amilo L1300, installed Debian Squeeze from netinstall from scratch a month ago. Installed Xfce as a DE afterwards.

This laptop usually has problem with: ACPI, Wifi and tons of other stuff usually Kernel related and is really picky about kernel version!

Now - with Lenny it worked without problems, but it had gnome and ext3 so I took a gamble and did a fresh install of Squeeze with Xfce with Ext4 filesystem and overall performance of the computer was faster and more responsive.

For wireless I have to use[url]

It all worked 100% until a week ago (roughly).

I do not use synaptic nor update manager, so I updated the system via terminal (as root of course) "apt-get update" and "apt-get upgrade". And I noticed it will upgrade kernel. I went through the upgrade process, as I thought it's all a 2.6.32-5-686 kernel version and it will not brake anything since it IS a stable branch of Debian and it will not install new kernel. Of course it did not install 2.6.34 or anything like that...

After the update I began experiencing problems, first with mouse pointer, it became invisible and goes back visible and resume from suspend, also wireless randomly disconnects and sometimes won't reconnect to wifi network, as I found out it's all kernel related problems (googled it up). I do not know how to go back to previous kernel version, since in Grub2 menu it only points to one and only kernel version, as I reckon it's the same version but with bugfixes? Or should I say buy UNfixes. I tried using a liquorix kernel 2.6.32 but as he works, has problem with ACPI as I presume since it freezes the system on random occasions.

Please, what EXACT version of kernel was in Squeeze like 3 weeks ago? And how can install that particular version of kernel, since it was the only one that worked besides the one from Lenny.

"uname -r" says: 2.6.32-5-686

That's what it always said.

Is it possible I had, dunno 2.6.32.28 and it was updated to, dunno, 2.6.32.29 or some later one?

I managed to google up this:[url]

And how can I go back to 2.6.32.28 kernel for instance?

Should I use some of the snapshots from [url]?

Debian Configuration :: Install Fglrx Drivers For ATI Card With Testing?

I have also followed the directions at [URL]....html and that doesn't work either (make error 127). I must be doing something totally wrong.

Debian :: Squeeze Kernel Upgrade Broke Suspend To Ram

Dec 12, 2014

Yesterday, I ran a security update that upgraded my Squeeze kernel from 2.6.32-48squeeze8 to 2.6.32-48squeeze9.

Ever since then, my suspend to ram (STR) function is broken.

The machine will suspend normally, but will not resume. When I try to awaken the machine, I can hear the fan in the tower start up (the subject machine is a desktop computer, please see below for specifics), but the machine seems to be otherwise dead (e.g. the monitor stays blank, pressing the "caps lock" key on my keyboard does not activate said keyboard's "caps lock" led, Ctrl-Alt-F[x] has no effect, etc). My only recourse at that point is a hardware reset (ouch!).

I tried running Code: Select allpm-suspend from a terminal, with no joy. Same result running Code: Select allecho -n "mem" > /sys/power/state from a terminal.

I checked the /var/log/pm-suspend.log file and noticed that each Code: Select all...performing suspend line used to (before said kernel upgrade) be directly followed by a Code: Select all...Awake. line, but, now, all said Code: Select all...performing suspend lines are followed by an Code: Select allInitial commandline parameters... line.

Before this, STR has worked well ever since I first loaded Squeeze on this machine back in 2012.

Code: Select allSqueeze 6.0.10; 2.6.32-5-amd64

Asus P6X58D Premium Motherboard

Debian Multimedia :: Run The 2.6.32-5-686 Kernel On Squeeze And The Bad Nvidia Drivers?

Oct 31, 2010

I run the 2.6.32-5-686 kernel on Squeeze and the bad nvidia drivers. A recent update, and pardon for not noting which, broke 3d games on my box.

From a terminal neverputt yields the following error:

ignatius@lapbox 14:56 [ ~ ]:$ neverputt
X Error of failed request:  BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)
Major opcode of failed request:  137 (NV-GLX)
Minor opcode of failed request:  4 ()
Resource id in failed request:  0x2600013

[Code].....

I can mv xorg.conf to xorg.conf-pre and nexuiz will fire-up. Without 3d of course. I spent an hour or so last week going over my xorg.conf but it just ain't broke!

Someone else saw it, too, and reported it but his post remains alone in the thread as of 10 minutes ago. Anyone else seen this?

I don't play games much at all, but sometimes I just wanna frag muthafuckas and now I can't.

Debian :: Can't Boot Squeeze - Messed Up The Upgrade Of The Kernel Images

Jul 2, 2010

I messed up my install so now I can't boot it. I get errors. I doubt I'll be able to fix it. I messed up the upgrade of the kernel images... I'm not sure whether there's something I could do in the Grub config file... I have one other Linux OS I can use in the meantime (plus Windows OS) so I thought maybe boot that up and check the Debian partition in case there's any files I want to save/keep. If I re-install, is Debian Squeeze LXDE still a good choice? I'm going to install something different in the partition where the other Linux OS is. Right now, it's grub is handling the boot loader. The computer is an old laptop, a Thinkpad T41. The HDD is 160GB.
