Ubuntu :: Karmic - How To Change The Color Depth

Mar 11, 2010

I am running Karmic Koala on a Dell Precision M90, and have some problems with my color depth, or at least that's what I believe. I have googled this problem numerous times, reading a lot about /etc/X11/xorg.conf, and have created numerous files in that location, with all manners of (probably) valid contents. I have yet to try invalid contents, in the hope that Linux is reading the file, and doing so would crash the system. This is my current xorg.conf, after many iterations:

Code:

Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "X.org Configured"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"

[code]....

Now, is there some other place to change this? Should I sacrifice more virgins to Cthulhu, or is Hastur the one to ask in these situations?

Ubuntu :: How To Increase The Color Depth

Apr 6, 2010

I've a laptop from 2001 with 512MB of RAM, and I was running Windows XP, and the laptop wasn't coping very well with the huge demands of the applications of today. It was only yesterday I installed Ubuntu alongside XP and I was surprised to see how fast everything was!

The only thing that's bugging me a bit is the screen. Some parts of the desktop shows some banding where there is meant to be a gradient, probably telling me to increase the color depth. Is there a way in Karmic Koala to change the color depth? I tried using sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf but when the editor shows up with the setting file, it's empty.

Ubuntu :: 9.10 Keeps Switching To Low Color Depth?

Apr 12, 2010

Basically I've just installed Ubuntu 9.10 on an old Acer Aspire 3000 laptop. When I first did the install I observed that the screen color depth was very low so after browsing the forums I ran the latest updates and then everything was perfect.

However after a restart the color depth reverted back to low. I created an xorg.conf file and set the default depth to 24. However no luck. I then set the color depth to 16 in this file and restarted. This time it switched to the 16 bit color depth, however after a restart again it all reverted back! I tried changing the value again but it is now stuck at the low color depth again.

The driver I am using is the updated SIS driver that was provided from Ubuntu for the onboard 661 SIS video card.

1. Identify what my current color depth setting are? (default opensuse 11.4 KDE install)

2. How do I change it? Am assuming it is set to 32bit now, would like to set it to 24.

The reason is my little netbook really burns up when i play a video.. acer aspire one and one of the reason why I installed linux over windows 7 was that I wanted my laptop to run faster ... apart from the fact that I would have installed suse anyways!!

Ubuntu :: Changing The Color Depth From Whatever It Is Now To 24bit?

Dec 29, 2010

I am trying to create a media server, and I decided to try out Ubuntu, but I'm having trouble figuring this out. I have taken a suggestion that I got from another forum, but it did not work.

I'm using version 10.4 and I have to get it to at least 24 bit so I can run XBMC. I have a friend that works for red hat and he said I needed to find the restricted driver or something, but I can't find it, and he doesn't know where it might be on Ubuntu. So, does anyone know how I can change my color depth to 24bit?

Ubuntu Networking :: 10.10 Reverse X11vnc Color Depth Changes?

Nov 15, 2010

I have looked around and haven't had a lot of luck finding any information on this. I could be blind...but I'm not sure, haha.

I do a lot of remote support for my clients (I do PC repairs and training). I have recently starting suggesting to some of my basic users that they give Ubuntu a try. So far it has been very well received and they are loving it. The problem I am running into is that some of them use laptops in multiple places, and some use routers that are not easily configured. In each case it makes port forwarding a large pain in the behind to allow for remote access.

I have started using the X11vnc reverse connection and it has been working well, except for the fact that it is using high quality color depth (24bit I think?). I know when starting the connection from my end I can set the color depth, but is there any way to set the depth of a reverse connection?

Also, I understand that using just vnc over the Internet is not secure. I need to look into a decent guide to set up SSH tunneling for this. I don't suppose anyone knows of a good guide for 10.04 and 10.10?

General :: How To Change To Single User Mode In Dump Script?

Apr 26, 2010

I have this dump script that performs either full or incremental backups depending on the day of the week. From what I have read, when using dump you should drop to single user mode to help prevent the backups from being inconsistent before you issue the dump command. What I want is the script to drop to single user mode, perform the backups using dump, and then go back to runlevel 3 after the backups complete.

I know when you enter init 1 to drop to single user mode, but doing so within a script reboots the computer and drops it to single user mode and the rest of the script doesn't complete.What would be a good method for me to be able to accomplish what I want to do? Do I need to run other scripts that would call mine?I am running Centos 5.4

Ubuntu :: Monitor Display Awful (color Depth) Acer Aspire 1710?

Oct 29, 2010

I've been desperate to successfully install Ubuntu on my Acer Aspire 1714SMi (old and huge, I know), but the display suffers from a greatly reduced color range, strange white haze/ fine vertical lines and virtually ilegible text. I took a screen shot as I know it's hard to describe these things, but it looks normal on the image! The Graphics Driver is nVIDIA GeForce FX Go5700 128MB. The display is perfect on XP.

I downloaded some NVidia Drivers for Linux from nVidia & from here: [URL] Can't get any of them to work, and I find it hard to believe it's so difficult to get a basic display to work. I'm about to give up.

General :: Emergency Mode Can Mount HDD With FS Error / Not In Rescue Or Single User-mode

Dec 1, 2010

My linux workstation recently crashed. After rebooting, Linux (Red Hat 5.3) will not boot properly and automatically went into emergency mode or recovery mode i think. I can still see my /home/user/ and all the files inside.I boot from CD to rescue mode and tried mounting read-only the /dev/sd5 which contains the files in the crashed hard disk to try to copy out my files but mounting was unsuccessful (invalid argument). I checked the filesystem type using fsck -N /dev/sda5 and shows it to ext2. i tried to mount another known working hdd and was successful.

My question is why in emergency mode, the crashed hdd is able to be mounted automatically as read-only but cannot be done in rescue mode thru a bootable CD?Is there any special mount options used in emergency mode?I also cannot copy out in emergency mode booting from the crashed hard disk as everything is read only.
