OpenSUSE Install :: ATI Radeon 3650 Can Not Boot (into LiveCD)

May 14, 2011

I can not porpperly boot into live CD. I get the option menu in beginning and when i select the liveCD option it starts loading the kernel and then screen gets garbled. full of very small dots. Its liek the graphics card is not recognised propperly. I've read about similar issue here: ATI Radeon HD 3650 AGP boot problem

but as i see the user's specific problem in taht thread was caused by having an AGP card and on an older version. however my card is PCI. it should boot normally. i haven't tried nomodeset parameter mentioned in that thread, but the card shouldn't need it anyway.

OpenSUSE Install :: ATI Radeon HD 3650 AGP Boot?

Feb 20, 2011

I have installed OpenSuse 11.3 . System doesn't boot in NORMAL mode, system boots only in Fail-safe mode. In NORMAL mode i have kernel panic (may be i am wrong, but Caps Lock + Scroll Lock are blinking synchronously during NORMAL boot). ATI Radeon HD 3650 AGP figured on thread Subject because i am sure that the problem is in this video card. 2 weeks ago i have installed ATI Proprietary driver for this card and system successfully boot in NORMAL mode without any kernel panic. You may ask me, "What the problem, install this driver again and have fun!". The problem is that when I install this driver and boot in NORMAL mode video sub system works very slowly. For example one mouse scroll in Internet browser takes 2 seconds to redraw the window. It is not only browser window problem. It refers to all windows. I even can see the wave from up to down on the screen when any window redraws. Very poor performance of 2D video. So , installation of this driver is not the solution.

In the Fail-safe mode 2D video performance is not so cool as at Windows XP but is much more better than in NORMAL boot with proprietary driver installed. Now I have clean installation of system without any drivers installed over distributive. now system configuration:

1. Motherboard: Intel 845D(has on board AC'97 sound, but this sound is disabled in BIOS currently)

2. CPU:Intel Celeron 1.7 GHz.

3. Main memory: 1,5 GB DDR 266MHz.

4. Video card: PowerColor ATI Radeon HD 3650 AGP (512 MB, 64 bit).

5. Sound card: CMI8738.

OpenSUSE Hardware :: ATI Radeon HD 3650 - 3D?

Feb 2, 2009

I am running openSUSE 11.0 on a Toshiba laptop with the ATI Radeon HD3650 graphic card. After installing the ATI drivers using the "1-click-install" feature found in the suse wiki, the 3D acceleration seems to be working... sort of.

[Code]...

I haven't tried to launch Compiz. However when I try the OpenGL screensavers, they run fine in the preview but when I test them, they only show in what seems a 640*480 portion of the screen in the top left corner. The rest of my 1200*800 screen is blank.

Hardware :: ATI CrossFireX With Two Radeon HD 3650 Cards?

Aug 20, 2010

For some time, almost since it came out, I've been using a single Radeon HD 3650 with two (dissimilar) monitors. It's fine and works well with fglrx and openSUSE. ( Although now that I come to think of it, openSUSE 11.3 does only have preview support in my current fglrx. ) I now have a second, identical card. My hardware is:

Video cards: 2x Sapphire Radeon HD 3650
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-MA790X-DS4 1.0
Also...
CPU: AMD Phenom II X4 940 Black

[code]...

My video card did come, if I remember rightly, with a crossfire bridge but that has been thrown away (not by me). However the motherboard specifications do include support for CrossFireX. I've tried, although with very little understanding of how, to use aticonfig to set up my cards for crossfire. As it stands crossfire is not enabled and aticonfig claims that it does not support this platform:

Code:

# aticonfig --cfa --adapter=all --crossfire=on
CrossFire chain added
Warning: X needs to be restarted before CrossFire changes take effect.
CrossFire chain(s) enabled

[code]....

Is it possible to get this working?

Fedora Hardware :: Power Management On An ATI Radeon HD 3650?

Jun 1, 2011

I'm trying to enable power management on my ATI Radeon HD 3650 video card (GPU: ATI RV635; see my Smolt profile). I'm using the open-source radeon driver (xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.14.1-1.20110504gita6d2dba6.fc15).I've followed the instructions found on the Arch Linux Wiki.In order to verify if power management really works, I've tried to enable the "low" power profile through these commands:

Code:

echo profile > /sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_method
echo low > /sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_profile

I've also added the above-mentioned commands to /etc/rc.local to have them executed at startup.Although this page on the X.Org Wiki says that power management on my video card is supported by the radeon driver, GPU clock frequency doesn't seem to decrease: cat /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/radeon_pm_info reports

Code:

$ cat /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/radeon_pm_info
default engine clock: 725000 kHz
current engine clock: 722250 kHz
default memory clock: 500000 kHz

[code]....

Also, enabling dynamic frequency switching through

Code:

echo dynpm > /sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_method

seems to have no effect. how to actually enable power management on my GPU?

Ubuntu :: ATI Mobility Radeon Hd 3650 Graphics Card Is Not Supported - Compiz

Nov 8, 2010

I'm having problems with my graphics. I have ATI mobility radeon hd 3650 and I get an issue with desktop effects. They can't be enabled even though the card is supported. I had some trouble with installation and used this thread's instructions: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9133906. I finally seem to have it installed and configured but I still can't use desktop effects. Also this whole process started because I couldn't get minecraft working getting the GLX13 error.

OpenSUSE Install :: NET / LiveCD Will Not Boot At All

May 4, 2010

I formatted my old laptop's HDD completely to install openSUSE with a clean slate plus it couldn't handle XP anymore. I burnt a liveCD and NET CD but none of them boot (not at all) and since its my first experience with Linux I am puzzled. I get this message that operating system could not found (well there is none) and it suppose to boot from the CD I triple checked the boot priority I burnt extra CD's but nothing seem to work.

OpenSUSE Install :: Boot Speed In KDE LiveCD

Sep 6, 2010

I'm having very strange issues with OpenSUSE 11.3 KDE LiveCD, mainly performance-wise. Most noticeably, it takes 10-30 minutes to actually boot the system, and it doesn't matter whether the LiveCD is booted from the USB or if it's install into the hard disk. There aren't any noticeable errors during boot, though, except a few "timeout" errors and not being able to lauch VirtualBox Guest Additions (which I don't need since it's not run from VirtualBox anyway).

It takes the most time during the "scanning USB devices" section if I boot from the USB, and during the state where it detects the network card/assigns an IP. In both cases, every dot that appears there takes around 2 minutes. During the boot, the PC seems to be mostly idle, and appears to do something only occasinally, when certain parts of the boot sequence are passed, so that makes boot up feel "jumpy" - nothing happens for 10 minutes, then the PC starts accessing the HDD, then nothing happens for 10 more minutes.

There are other performance problems, noticeably during installation to HDD (through the Install option from the CD startup menu - it's quite a bit faster when started from the running LiveCD). For instance, it takes around 5-10 minutes to make the screen where you need to choose the language and keyboard layout responsive. The performance, in both cases, seems to be inconsistent - sometimes it starts booting and responding quickly, the other times it's really slow, up to the point of outright hanging.

System specs:
CPU: AMD Phenom II X4 925
4GB RAM
HDD: WD Caviar Black 640 GB
GPU: ATI Radeon HD 4890

OpenSUSE Install :: Unable To Boot LiveCD From USB On Netbook

May 15, 2010

I have an Acer Aspire One Netbook. Everytime I try to "burn" the live 11.2 GNOME CD to an USB drive (1GB) it fails on boot. I've tried unetbootin, the application from pendrivelinux.com as well. When it boots, it usually can't find the image. So I have to type in the name of the image by hand then press enter. I actually type the below in:

boot: openSUSE_Linux_(GNOME)

So it starts loading the image in text mode. I don't mind this, except it stops when it tries probing for the CD/DVD ROM.

rebootException failed to detect CD/DVD or USB drive

It just stops pass there. I've tried to add in the options acpi=off, but do I add it in before or after I enter in the image name? BTW, it doesn't boot in my laptop either.

OpenSUSE Install :: 11.3 Along With Windows 7 But Get Black Screen After Boot Of LiveCD

Nov 17, 2010

I have windows 7 and I'd like to install opensuse 11.3. I have tried with liveCD, live usb, live dvd, but when I click installation, it shows "kernel loading", and when it finishes the loading, all I get is a black screen. Sometimes, when I try with the live CD method it reboots and the same happens again.

In my other computer with XP installed inside, it works immediately. I have tried to change video mode to text and vesa mode, also I have typed "acpi=off noapic edd=off" in the boot options line, but it didn't worked.

The black screen appears not only for the installation option, but also when I choose boot live CD, and check installation media. By the way, I have checked the downloaded iso with md5 checker, and it's the right file.

OpenSUSE Install :: ArtistX LIVECD Changed Boot Sequence?

Nov 22, 2010

I tried a LIVECD from Artistx: ArtistX - eXtra ordinary art tools Index of /mirrors/artistx And now my computer boots up into a kernel command line screen instead of the GUI type screen where I enter my name and password. Anyone know what this ##$%@ disk changed on my computer and how do I get it back to normal? Fail safe mode boots ok. On the LIVECD disk I selected boot from hard drive which worked but after I turn off my computer and restart, it goes back into that command line sign in screen and stays there.

OpenSUSE Install :: Can't Boot LiveCD / 'No Devices Matches MBR Identifier' Error

Jul 5, 2010

I am certain that the problem is not with the CD. It can boot on my laptop. It's the RC2 of OpenSuse 11.3 Gnome. When I try to boot on my PC, I get the error "No devices matches MBR identifier: 0x502eadc3".I had some problems when installing Ubuntu, with HDD partitioning because it's SATA3. I tried several things, chandged from IDE to ACHI in Bios, then after it didn't work I simply plugged out all of the Sata cables but still the same. It should be because of Bios settings I guess.I have Gigabyte X58A-UD3R mainboard. Please help, I really love OpenSuse

OpenSUSE Install :: Cannot Boot LiveCD When Hard Drive Mode Is RAID

Jul 29, 2010

I burned the live version of OpenSUSE 11.3 (Gnome, 32bit) to a CD to test the compatibility of an HP Pavilion p6510f. Although Xubuntu 10.4 booted up fine, OpenSUSE did not. A message about RAID would appear (too briefly to read) and then the computer would reboot.I checked in the BIOS and found that the SATA drive has 3 modes: IDE, RAID and AHCI. The hard drive was set to RAID.

When I changed the hard drive mode to IDE, I was able to run the OpenSUSE live CD; but the change ruined my Windows installation. Windows doesn't boot under IDE or RAID mode. (I have reset the mode to RAID and am restoring the Windows installation.) Is there an option/argument that I can pass to the kernel so that OpenSUSE will work under RAID mode? (Since Xubuntu 10.4 was able to do it, I'm assuming OpenSUSE should be able to.)

OpenSUSE Install :: Can't Boot Live Kde Cd Or Usb On Machine With Radeon 6870

Jul 19, 2011

As per the thread title, tried both 32 and 64-bit isos, also re-downloaded the isos in case of a problem with them

Fails to enter runlevel 5 (and start kdm), I've tried the usual nomodeset, setting no_kms_in_initrd isn't much help as mkinitrd fails after setting it

Here's the gist of the errormsgs:

Code:
(==) Using config directory: "/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d"
(EE) Failed to load module "fglrx" (module does not exist" (0)
(II) [KMS] drm report modesetting isn't supported
(EE) RADEON(0): Chipset: "AMD Radeon HD 6800 Series" (ChipID = 0x6738) requires kms Some things I've tried:

Blacklisting fglrx doesn't work with vi as it tells me 50-blacklist.conf is read-only even when I use the ! override read-only switch

Tried specifying both the radeon and radeonhd and even vesa drivers in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-device.conf when trying off a usb pen drive created with imagewriter

As mentioned earlier. tried nomodeset and no_kms_in_initrd to yes

It's a pain as I have tumbleweed on the machine and prior to putting the radeon card in it I would use a live usb drive to backup the system prior to updating, when I had an nividia card in the machine live usb and live cd would both boot no problem so it pretty much has to be something about the way it's handling the radeon card (like trying to load the non-existent fglrx driver regardless of what I do to try stopping that maybe?)

Don't know what else to try though and if I can't get it booting off a live opensuse I can see myself putting another os on it somewhere just for backing up the system before any updates

Ubuntu Installation :: Can't Boot After LiveCD Install

Jan 31, 2011

I have Fedora 14 installed on my laptop (Installed with few issues) and I'm trying to install ubuntu on my desktop. I had ubuntu 10.04 installed before on a second (250gb) hard drive (Windows 7 on the other 1TB drive) with a few issues and kinda screwed a few things up trying to upgrade to 10.10. So, I said screw it, and downloaded the live .iso for 10.10 (x64) and burned it to disk. I boot from the live CD and choose the install option to use entire 250Gb disk. I choose my options, including to download updates and install 3rd party software and let the install run its course. Everything seems to be going fine and it asks me to restart. So I say yes, the disk pops out and the screen goes dark... and then nothing happens. The computer's still on but hasn't restarted yet. I hit the del key (Which I use to enter BIOS) and the computer finally restarts. I enter BIOS and tell it to boot from the 250Gb HDD, save and exit. However, it gets stuck at the point where it (It, I assume to be the motherboard) says "Loading Operations System ..." and with a blinking cursor on the line underneath. Nothing happeneds.

I tried again just this morning using the same procedure. I'm once again stuck at the "Loading Operating System .." screen.

EDIT: After poking around a bit more, I remembered I was confronted by a GRUB menu when I booted into Windows 7 HDD. So, I selected Linux from the menu and all seems good. Does anyone know why this is? It's very odd, well at least to me. Why would GRUB be on the windows hard drive? Is this something I should be concerned about?

Ubuntu :: LiveCD - Install And Boot - Blank Screen

May 4, 2010

I installed a new graphic card from ATI 5770 (Club3D). After I did it I removed the propriatery ATI drivers I had installed thru the "Hardware Drivers" in Ubuntu and rebooted. Then I couldn't get into ubuntu again. When it starts booting the display just shuts down and says "Power Saving mode". The computer continues to load things etc. left it running and hoped it would show itself... nothing.

Anyway this happens everytime even with Live CD so I can't even get to a terminal... Started the boot without the splash and it went blank after it started some Speech thing. Just before that there were a few firmware files missing.

Ubuntu :: Desktop Background From One Install Appears In LiveCD Boot?

when I booted Jaunty from the LiveCD, the desktop background to my Hardy install showed for a couple of seconds before the screen cleared and put the Jaunty desktop on there.This isn't really a problem, but I was curious as to why it happened (something like it has happened before with other versions, not always booting from CD IIRC) and just wondered if anyone could shed any light on it?

OpenSUSE Install :: Can't Get A GUI With 11.4 LiveCD

May 31, 2011

I seem to have a knack for having systems built that OpenSuse doesn't like. I remembered this afternoon why I gave up on 11.x - the 11.4 LiveCD doesn't like my setup, at least in terms of booting into a GUI. I have uploaded two photos I took of the bootup screen, in case the provide information that might be helpful. I am sorry about the shakiness, I have CP and the the 2nd one is harder to read because of that, but it says something about "amd radeon hd 6800 series (chip ID 0x6738) requires KMS" among other things.

Even though I'm really rusty in CLI, I'm happy to give it a go, to get this working, if possible. The two screenshots are [URL]

FWIW, the 11.4 LiveCD also really didn't like the NVIDIA GeForce 7000M / nForce 610M in my old Acer Aspire 5520 either.

OpenSUSE Install :: Manage To Get The LiveCD Working?

Jan 22, 2010

I recently downloaded the i686 11.2 and right before it seems as though the Live CD is going to load, with the cursor and the black screen present, it takes me straight to 'linux login'. It states that runlevel 5 has been reached, the failed services in runlevel 5 are postfix and the skipped services are nfs if that's of any significance. I have no idea where to start; looking around it looks as though this is a graphics card issue. My laptop has Intel X3100 integrated video. How can I manage to get the LiveCD working?

(Also, if let it sit at the login for a while, it says "usr/sbin/stop_preload: line 4: /usr/bin/killall: Input/Output error)

OpenSUSE Install :: Booting The LiveCD From An USB Stick?

Jan 26, 2011

-I could use a hand in installing opensuse on my 2009 Intel Macbook

-I need to use a USB stick for the install, my optical drive doesn't work.

-I am trying to reformat my macbook to run 64-bit opensuse 11.3 instead of Apple's proprietary operating system, OS X

-So I started here: Chapter1.Installation with YaST

-And in this article, under section 1.1. Choosing the Installation Media, i found this sub-section: Booting the LiveCD from an USB Stick.

-So i followed those steps to create a bootable USB stick in Terminal, and i got an error in Terminal and was unable to go any further;

-this was the error in Terminal: dd: bs: illegal numeric value

Would anyone know what the error means, and what i should have typed instead? Is it because my USB stick is generic instead of being a specific type like a U3 stick?
