Ubuntu :: Display Not Updating On New Install / Solution For This?
Jan 21, 2010
I have just installed 9.10 on an old Dell C610 laptop as I had to install a new hard drive and didn't have the old XP licence number or COA!
Anyway, the Ubuntu install all seemed to go ok but I'm having a major problem with the display not following what I'm doing and not updating as windows are opened and closed. Am I likely to be doing something silly or have I got a hardware conflict somewhere. Where should I start?

I have this problem where the 10.10 LiveCD 64-bit works (as in I get full resolution display and no video issues at all). But after install, the OS boots successfully but there's no display. I know it's successful because I was able to login in the dark (sound works).
Here's what I have:
HP m9340f (NVIDIA GeForce 9500M GS with HDMI)
46" Sharp connected via HDMI
Windows 7, works fine.
Here's what I tried with no luck:
1. CTRL-ALT-F1 still doesn't show anything on screen, no terminal
2. Connected via VGA
3. Connected another 17" monitor via VGA, rebooted
4. Added vga=789 in grub before booting
The weird thing is that I had 10.04 before and it was working for a while then it suddenly stopped working. I figured I'd wait until 10.10 but I now have the same issue. I haven't tried 32-bit... I can give that a shot in a bit.

Windows won't boot on Grub after I just updated Ubuntu. I tried to follow the solutions to other people who have had similar problems, but I can't get them to work for me. I am assuming you will want to see this code...

After installing the latest version of opensuse I have it up and running, except that the display goes black about every 30 seconds for a moment and then comes back again.
I am guessing it is because I don't have enough ram for this OS? I am using a HP tower and I think it only has at most 512mb ram right now.
Can someone tell me if this is the issue or anything else I might try in the meantime?

I just installed Ubuntu last night parallel to windows vista ultimate (no problems). My biggest problem is that when I tried to install the nvidia display drivers, I somehow downloaded a server based driver (and am having amazingly difficult problems). I use a dual monitor set up (both are plug and play LCD displays) and i'm not too worried about aesthetics but rather, performance. I downloaded the correct driver but now I don't know how to install it. Is there a way to uninstall this server driver?

I do not have knowledge of ubuntu Nvidia drivers etc. because my previous installations (ie. 9.04) worked OK. I do not have a dual boot HDD, just a clean install.
By the way, I can upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10 using the add/remove thing & everything works.

I'm trying to install Ubuntu 10.10 on my custom tower. The live CD loads, I select Install Ubuntu, I get to the screen with the system checks, I hit install and... crash.
I'm guessing it's a hardware issue as I have it installed on 3 other computers no problem. Here are my specs code...
I've tried the 64bit and 32 bit versions, same thing. I tried installing it with Wubi, I reboot and it crashes shortly into the install. Is any of this hardware incompatible? Any suggestions I can try?

I just installed Ubuntu on my girlfriends laptop. The install went fine, but after it tried to restart, it wouldn't boot into Ubuntu. I was reading a thread about someone with a similar problem, and replied in that thread as well, but no responses to me yet. One person said to go here and run the script and post the output. I did that, and this is what I got code...

I'm trying to install the GD library from the Add/remove software app, but it will not install because it says that it can't resolve a dependency "PHP-common", however, this IS installed, yet it keeps giving me this error. Is there a work around to this or a way to fix the dependencies problem?

I had to re-install openSUSE11.2 but I kept having either black screen or mouse cursor freeze. Using sax2 to change video driver didn't work whether "ati", "radeon" or "vesa" was selected. I finally came across a solution: 1. Log in at run level 3 with acpi=off, no apic,F3=vesa, then become root 2. YAST -> Miscellaneous -> Live Installer, etc. 3. Reboot 4. If black screen, force a reboot and repeat step1 5. Autoconfig restart? Yes 6. When installation is finished, reboot 7. Boot option: 3 acpi=off noapic F3(vesa) 8. Login as normal user then become root 9. #YAST > Online Update 10> #YAST > Edit Bootloader
11. Edit Grub menu: Add the following to the end of the kernel line (under heading: kernel options...): vga=792 acpi=off noapic. Note that vga=792 is from a LILO config file example, which has the side note:"vga=792 #you need to do this so it boots up in a sane state". I came across this from "Framebuffer HOWTO: Using framebuffer devices on Intel platforms" Your Grub menu may also show vga=0x317 but this is because you might have selected 1024x768 screen resolution;it has nothing to do with vga=792. Vga=792 is what essentially solves the black screen problem.

I am unable to install CentOS V5.4 on my work station.
After collecting the config info (root password, etc.) the installation immediately gets disk write errors while doing PVCREATE.
I'm installing from the DVD to the 136GB SCSI drive. The drive is known to be good and is writable as a Windows
volume.
The scsi drive is the only drive selected for installation.
I've selected to delete all partitions on the volume and install default configuration however the new partition is not created. code...

After I install 11.2 clean from the ISO, I would like to update ONLY knetworkmanager, and not all of KDE. I would like to use zypper commands similar to the one below, which work for KDE. However, I would like the syntax for only knetwork manager and not all of KDE sample for KDE:
# please let me have the correct commands for
# ONLY updating Knetworkmanager
# These work fine, but I don't want to update all
# of KDE. I only want to update knetworkmanager

Been using suse since version 5.x (yes that long). I updated from suse to opensuse 10.3 (sorry I am broke. Everything works in my machine: bluetooth, ipod, printer. I moved to 11.1 (I was not able to update to 11.0 at the time because when I tried the installer will go in an infinite loop).
In 11.1: bluetooth does not work, ipod does not work (found that the bluetooth stack was broken same with ipod) then I hear about 11.2. I tried to update (in hope that all the issues where fixed) Updated the system tried to boot and fails: The reason was that was using USB to try to boot a SATA drive. Which I can tell you will not work
Use the rescue system and I can boot the machine, but there is not a single USB (so the printer can not work) It can not see the video card properly (works only in reduced mode 1200x800 16bit) no sound (asound just fails). Tried to install a new kernel and same. I just went back to 11.0 oh well waiting for 11.3

I have OpenSuse 11.3 KDE installed in dual boot with Win 7. Have used Ubuntu in the past and remember that whenever I started my computer with Ubuntu, i had a black colored screen which showed various kernel options. So in short I was sure that the Ubuntu installation had updated itself. On the contrary, whenever I start Suse 11.3 KDE, it shows me just one option of Suse 2.6.34.7-0.7
I have doubts, is Suse up-to-date, and also there is mention of KDE 4.6 on kde.org website.
But my operating system information is as follows:
KDE: 4.4.4 (KDE 4.4.4) "release 3"
OS: Linux 2.6.34.7 -0.7 -default i686
System: openSUSE 11.3 (i586)
I have also seen that on 10th Mar 2011, Suse 11.4 will be realeased. Will update/ upgrade of this installation work in this direction?

updating 10.2 to 11.1 method?
This is the dual booting IBM lap top with windows XP and has been working well for over 4 years.
I would like to install 11.1 as 10.2 is not supported and I have two other machines using 11.1.
I have all the data on suse 10.2 backed up, so it is just the procedure of installation without loosing XP

A few days ago I installed Nvdia fx 5200 drivers and after that I had on my grub menu Opensuse 2.6.31.8-0.1 Desktop along with Default. Since Desktop worked alright and Default would work only in terminal, I erased Default from Grub menu. Yesterday Update Applet warned about some updates, I installed them and had on Grub menu 2.6.31.12 Desktop with 2.6.31.12 Default. When I wanted to shut down computer, the screen froze. It works when I reboot but if I want to shut down, it doesn't do this, I have to make a forced shut down. How can I solve this problem?

I have a problem which has developed after just updating.When I try to log into KDE (as part of normal startup, etc), I instead get the error message:
Code:
Call to lnusertemp failed (temporary directories full?). Check your installation.
It then kicks me back to shell login. This also shows another error message which I'm

Yesterday I ran an "Online update". One package came up with an update available. Quite honestly, I didn't even take note of which package it was. Anyway, I applied the update patch. After that my computer wouldn't boot. Grub ran normally, and some of the drivers, and such would load, but just about the time when kdm would come up, all I get is a blank screen. Monitor says "No Signal". I have to manually restart.
I managed to boot into failsafe mode, log in as root, and then run kdm from the console. That way I can login. However, my computer is very, very slow running failsafe mode. how I can get it back to normal? also, is there any way to check the history of updates?

I got a new hard drive in and decided to do a completely new install of 11.4 64 on my "testing/spare machine:. I have my dual monitors configured properly But I ran into two issues. When doing a manual post install update from the 11.4 updates repo I have one file that will not play happily named cronie. When trying to install the application wspr from the hamradio repo I get the following error for an unsatisfied dependency. I have the same application installed on another 11.4 installation on this system and it didn't choke on this file.
