My power went out for an extended period of time and now my graphics are messed up. I started my computer up and I only can get 640x480, so I was trying to reinstall the drivers but the nvidia drivers on the repositroy do not make sense as far as what goes with what, or descriptions of them. I downloaded the driver off nvidias website instaled it. It went to my desktop same problem.
View 9 RepliesI skipped over Jaunty on my main desktop because Intrepid had been working perfectly for so long. Finally took the plunge to Karmic, and have had major instability problems. I cannot trace them to any particular program I am using. At first it seemed related to power management, since it would lock up every time it had a period of extended inactivity. I have disabled ACPI in my BIOS (I think), and any power management settings I could find in gnome to try to troubleshoot. That seems to have helped, but it still happens semi-regularly, sometimes when I am in the middle of using it. I have tried checking logs and googled anything that seemed important. ie a message in kern.log reads: Clocksource tsc unstable
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm using centos 5, kernel 2.6.18-164.11.1.el5I have occasional server network problems (the NIC driver will basically crash/restart causing no connectivity for a period of time) due to the marvell sky2 NIC driver being a problem, as discussed here: This essentially means the server is unreliable when under any kind of reasonable load, to put it mildly.Worse still, the driver problem has not been resolved in 2.6.18.x - but it seems to have been resolved in the latest Linux kernels.I really don't want to compile the kernel from source, etc, but it looks like I may have no choice.Is there a repo which has a pre-compiled 2.6.20+ or 2.6.30+ kernel which I can use,

Recently installed OpenSuse 11.3 on my system, Setup dual monitors w/ the latest Nvidia driver from Yast repo : download.nvidia.com
Initially twin view ( same desktop viewed on both monitors ) worked no problem
Once xinorama was enabled to extend the one desktop across both I encountered a mouse issue.
Main monitor is on the right, 2ndary on the left... When I drag the mouse from the right monitor over to the lest.. the cursor appears to get stuck on the left monitor's right hand edge.. it flickers as i move it around...
If I drag the mouse to the right a few whole mousepad lengths it will come back to the right...its like fighting to bring it back..
The freeze's on my machine only appears when i monitor the temperature of
the gpu. Normally i use gkrellm to monitor temperatures including the gpu temperature. When i stop gkrellm there a no more freeze's on my system. Then i started nvdock which also monitor the gpu temperature and the freeze's are back. Stopping nvdock make the system working normally. I have done a few reboots now, warm and also cold starts und everything works normal.

View 10 Replies View RelatedThere is one thing missing (I think) a clear guide to clearing out Nvidia and replacing it with nouveau. For all but hardened gamers, nouveau on 11.4 delivers. It also removes one more barrier to what I think is the intended goad of Tumbleweed.The problem IMHO is not that there are no clear guides. The problem is there are too many. No sooner does one person do a guide (that is clear) and someone else who does not like some point writes another guide that they think is more clear (but in fact is less clear in other aspects). And this goes on ad infinitum.IMHO we have too many guides - many of which are sufficient clear ... but the VAST number only serves to confuse users more.
Having typed that, IMHO this is NOT a Tumbleweed specific issue, but its MUCH WIDER in scope and hence does not belong as a discussion in this Tumbleweed thread.
I just reinstalled, and can't get the setting set right so that my display does not shut off after a certain period of time. It is shutting off after a while of inactivity, and I do not want it to.

So far it runs great, however I was wondering if there is a way to make fedora 15 hibernate after being in suspend for a period of time, just like windows 7 does. This make sense to me as there is no point in wasting battery life if i can hibernate, but I don't want to hibernate all the time, just suspend for a period of time, like 2 hours, in case I need my netbook again i have quick access to it.

How do I check if I'm using the Nouveu driver or the Nvidia Binary driver? I thought things were running nicely with the free driver because I had compositing working on my dismal graphics card... But scrolling in firefox is slow/laggy so I tried installing the binary driver with 1click install. But I restarted and still have the same problem. I think I might still be using the nouveu driver? Actually, scratch that last sentence. I just did lspci -v and got this output:

I am running Karmic on my laptop, and I have three 1.5 TB external hard drives which I swap between frequently. My problem is that if I leave the drives in, and do not access them for a period of time, they become inaccessible, i.e. I will click on the icon on the desktop or in Places, and it will tell me there is no device mounted, even though I was using it fine just an hour before.
i have a feeling that it is because the USB drives spin down after a period, and Ubuntu detects them as being 'disconnected'. Would it help if I added individual entries for each in fstab?? Or do I need to adjust some settings elsewhere?
EDIT: If this information helps, the HD's are all Seagate Expansion drives, formatted to ext4.
I'm not sure if this belongs in the Server or Networking section of the forums. Anyway, last month I upgraded my server to Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. Since then, I've had a recurring problem wherein after a certain period of time, the server stops accepting network connections. Ubuntu 10 will continue to reject network connections until someone logs into the server locally, after which time network connectivity is restored and the cycle begins anew. Essentially, the server goes into a "half sleep mode". I say half because the computer is still on and the fans are running.
I've done some searching around various forms and initially figured this issue was related to problems with the Network Manager service (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lu...er/+bug/524454), so I removed the service altogether. However, this problem is still occurring.
I've poured over /var/log/messages and /var/log/syslog, but have noticed no irregular behavior. Has anyone else experienced this issues? I'd rather not resort to downgrading back to Gusty Gibbon if I can help it.
I am happy to provide more information if its needed

View 2 Replies View RelatedMy amarok crashes everytime. I saw an similar problem posted at OpenSUSE 11.3: Amarok crashes on startup.

After I read the above thread, I deleted all the repositories except for the four. I had these following repositories prior:

I'm setting up Suse 11.2 on PC w/ an Nvidia GT 240. I used the 1-click installation, found it didn't work, then discovered this thread saying the 240 requires the newest beta driver, 195.30, which is not available yet in 1-click and has to be manually installed.
However, that driver is no longer available on Nvidia's download site, either through their menu or the direct link given in the forum thread:
Unix Drivers Portal Page [URL]
Nor do I see it in the Nvidia repository.
why it was removed? Is there a major problem with it? If not, any idea how I can get it?
And if I can find an install it, I assume I need to first uninstall the 1-click version?

I've got 11.3 going and I am mostly enjoying it. I was thrilled when I noticed that with KMS, I could see the boot process and the other vterms on my external monitor. Sadly, the nouveau driver doesn't seem to work for KWin/KDE compositing/desktop effects. Additionally, VDPAU was no go.
So, I set the nomodeset option for grub and chanked the KMS option in the sysconfig settings. The nvidia driver now works (along with composite/VDPAU stuff).
That being said... knowing I could have my external monitor work in those other areas of use is really bugging me.
I don't know much about KMS... is there any process (or if not, foreseeable future) where I could use KMS and the nvidia driver?
