Ubuntu :: Extra Effects Conflicts With OpenGL
Sep 28, 2010
Whenever I try to run any of my OpenGL programs with Settings -> Appearance -> Visual Effects: Extra, the program window flickers and disappears. However, if I turn my effects to Normal, my OpenGL programs run smoothly. Any way to have both on at the same time?
Code:
$ fglrxinfo display: :0.0 screen: 0
OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc.
OpenGL renderer string: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5800 Series
OpenGL version string: 1.4 (4.0.10237 Compatibility Profile Context)

Last night I was playing around with Desktop Effects and set the composting engine to Xrender, it was openGL. And things started to slow down tremendously. There is now lag on Alt+F1, lag when mousing over hidden taskbar, lag when moving windows, etc. I was trying to get rid of a trail of images when moving windows around. I created more problems. Things got even better when I tried to change back to openGL:
"Failed to activate desktop effects using the given configuration options. Setting will be reverted back to previous values. Check your X configuration. You may also consider changing advancde options, especially changing the composting type." The same thing happens when I click on "Default", the default options disable desktop effects.

The hardware devices drivers list three different types of drivers onboard including what appears to be the latest one with accelerated graphics capability. When I try to improve the visual effects to 'extra' it keeps telling me there's an error. I've tried improving the effects with all three but still getting the error.

I upgraded from Maverick a few days ago, and ever since, OpenGL effects are getting disabled by KDE with a message stating that the effects were making the machine slow. Switching to Xrender works fine, but XRender isn't as advanced as OpenGL.

I have Lucid lynx on my laptop, its been working perfectly for months. Recently been trying to get flash videos on sites to play and came across a 'fix' that said to disable desktop effects, which I did.
That didn't work and afterward found out that adobe flash 10 don't work on 64-bit linux, which is what I have. Tried to re-enable desktop effects to normal but got "cannot load desktop effects" popup.
I've removed nvidia driver, reinstall it, tried to enable desktop effects, didn't work. Ran nvidia-settings which said to run as root nvidia-xconfig and restart X(alt-printscr-k), which I did, it didn't work. I just want my desktop effects back, I had it on extra.
Edit: Forgot to mention that at boot, after grub menu nothing shows. No login screen. I have to add "nomodeset" by pressing e at boot menu and typing it to the boot options to get a dialog to choose restart x which then shows the login screen.
Update: I've been searching all over, tried to install by downloading from nvidia site, didn't work, been rebooting like crazy after every try. Installed a bunch of nvidia files from software center and got hardware drivers to have nvidia current. The driver is activated and in use. However I still can't enable desktop effects and ubuntu doesn't boot normally. After the grub menu it shows the logo for a second then blank screen. I have to boot with nomodeset and choose to restart x or start in low graphics mode.
Please help me fix this.

Still new to the ubuntu world, here's my issue short and quick. Card seems to work fine until I try to change visual effects to "Extra". At that time the desktop goes black, but I can still see both bars 'top&bottom' and any windows, I am sure you know as well as i that support for the 7500 seems scarce.........

Currently I have a perfect setup of 3 monitors,2 GPUs running under Xinerama. I cannot get desktop effects running at Normal or Extra, when I try to enable either one I get the following message "The Composite extension is not available". Without Xinerama it works along with Compiz. I am running Ubuntu 9.04 x64 with a ATI HD4870 and ATI HD4350 GPU. I have the latest ATI display drivers (set up properly to my knowledge). Here is my xorg.conf file.

I just upgraded from FC8 (32-bit) to FC11 (64-bit). In doing so, I backed up my entire World of Warcraft folder so I could try to avoid having to download and install it all over again. However, I've now reinstalled wine (64-bit now), and the nvidia drivers from the rpmfusion repos (also 64-bit), and when I try to start WoW, it says it cannot load OpenGL. I'm wondering if anyone knows what's up, and if there's a solution that doesn't involve reinstalling WoW.

there are 2 related to 11.3: openSUSE_11.3/ and openSUSE_11.3_KDE_Distro_Factory/ Index of /repositories/KDE:/Extra they are not listed as official kde4 repos here KDE repositories - openSUSE, but they are in the same directory structure on the build service so it would assume they are official (what ever official means) They have rpm's I didn't see in community and playground (at least for 11.3) such as audex and clementine I would guess that they are for the stable and factory versions of KDE4 but then shouldn't there be a 3rd for unstable if this was the case? Or do they refer to the distro, 11.3 stable and 11.3 factory

So I'm interested in using Jokosher as an alternative to Garageband, which is what I'm used to using for recording music. After messing around with it a bit I've encountered a couple problems.The first is that Jokosher doesn't seem to remember the audio input device I selected the last time I used it. This may seem like a minor complaint, but I like to use my computer sort of like a tape recorder - that is, I use it to jot down quick musical ideas for later reference. With Garageband my internal mic is automatically selected, so all I have to do is press record. With Jokosher, however, I have to select the input I want to use every time I open the program. This, to me, kinda defeats the purpose of using a computer as a quick note-taking tool. Is there any way to set a default audio device for Jokosher to use, or to somehow make it remember which device I selected the last time?
The second is that I don't know how to install effects for this program. When I press the "effects" button it tells me that I need to install LADSPA-compatible effects myself. I've done a little bit of googling and still I can't figure out how to do this or which effects I should get.

I keep getting u1conflicts in my Moneydance backup. For example, I am usually doing something in Moneydance daily. However, when I went to open it up yesterday, it didn't save anything from the previous 3 days. The last 3 days worth were u1.conflict. Moreover, this is the only computer that we do the Moneydance transactions on. My other question is about the speed it is taking to upload all my pictures. Granted, I do have A lot of pictures (3000+), but it is taking forever to upload them. When U1 is running, it takes all of the bandwidth. My husband already posted something about limiting the bandwidth problems. What I am wondering though is if there is a way to get all my pictures backed up faster? I have been trying to back them up for about a week now. In 6 hours, it only backed up 115 files of over 3000, and that is using up all of our bandwidth.

I'm using Lucid. I installed gourmet, a gnome recipe program using Ubuntu Software Center. Everything appeared to go smoothly. Then I tried to use miro and discovered it was gone. So I reinstalled, then discovered gourmet was gone. OK, there's the problem, so I went to Synaptic to confirm. Tried to reinstall gourmet and was told it would remove miro. So, any fix for this? I'd like to use both programs.

Running Ubuntu 10.04 64bit on a Gateway md7818u.When trying to install Pidgin today, I found that I could not do so in the software center due to to a "Software Dependencies Cannot Be Resolved" error. So I went to Synaptic and attempted there. One package after another kept saying "dependent on (insert package name here) but will not be installed" so I went to manually install these packages, with the same results, leading me to "libdirac-encoder0" which would install but conflicted with many of my installed programs it said that all had to be removed to install this package, which will allow me to install all of these other packages, which will allow me to install Pidgin.

Just want to stealth ports on my laptop. Had problems with firestarter when I installed in on 10.10. Set Firestater back to defaults and then dumped it with:
Code:
sudo apt-get purge firestarter
Set up Gufw to defaults and now am not sure what I am seeing with iptables.
iptables -L shows .....
Do these settings look correct for default settings for Gufw? or do I still have some problems with the old firestarter settings not being removed. All I want is all ports stealthed. I know that ping is enabled but I believe that is a default setting in ufw. Could I restore iptables to default with:
Code:
sudo iptables -F
and then enable Gufw and set default?

Why apt-get can while aptitude can't?
I've searched on web, and all I can tell is that aptitude is "safer" than apt-get because it taking account the packages on hold.
But I don't have any package on hold! (I've tested dpkg --get-selections | grep hold)

When I moved from Fedora 13 from Fedora 11, I thought the annoying application crashes that I had been having were gone for good. Random crashes - firefox, Thunderbird, Abrt, metacity and what have you with SIGSEGV errors. I'm beginning to believe that these are not down to Fedora or even the RAM (Have run Memtest, several times). I'm not sure if what I am seeing are signs of IRQ conflicts of some sort. Can someone, please have a look and give me some guidance on what to do? Should I reinstall with acpi=off ? noapic? Also, don't have a clue why the system complains of ECC being disabled? The RAM is non-ECC. I have posted some sections of the logs here with links to the full logs instead of making this a massive post.
Code:
EDAC MC: Ver: 2.1.0 Aug 27 2010
EDAC amd64_edac: Ver: 3.3.0 Aug 27 2010
EDAC amd64: This node reports that Memory ECC is currently disabled, set F3x44[22] (0000:00:18.3).
EDAC amd64: ECC disabled in the BIOS or no ECC capability, module will not load.
Either enable ECC checking or force module loading by setting 'ecc_enable_override'.
(Note that use of the override may cause unknown side effects.)
amd64_edac: probe of 0000:00:18.2 failed with error -22
Complete system spec, BIOS details etc.
Full dmesg log on a fresh install. No issues experienced with system installation.

I recently locked Thunderbird 3.1.8 and Firefox 4.0 using zypper addlock, but now every time I go into Online Update I get "There are some conflicts on the transaction that must be solved manually." with these "options" which I have to tell it "Do not install..." (2x) seen at SUSE Paste.Is Online update trying to update my locked apps or a DEP of the locked app or something else? I can't touch those 2 apps, but how can I "fix" this behavior?
zypper locks output:

OpenSUSE 11.4, 64 bits, with
Index of /repositories/KDE:/Release:/46/openSUSE_11.4
and
Index of /repositories/KDE:/Extra/KDE_Release_46_openSUSE_11.4
repositories enabled. Since some days, if I go to YaST2 †’ Package †’ "Update packages if a new version is available" (I'm translating from Spanish) I get a warning that plasma-addons-4.6.5-9.3.x86_64 needs akonadi-runtime < 1.5.40, but that that requirement cannot be match because there are eliminated providers: akonadi-runtime-1.5.3-91.1.x86_64
and non instalable providers: akonadi-runtime-1.5.0-3.3.1.x86_64[openSUSE-11.4-11.4-0]
As "solution" it offers me to not install akonadi-runtime-1.6.0.93.1.x86_64 and libakonadiprotocolinternals1-1.6.0.93.1.x86_64 (which I selected) or to uninstall plasma-addons and kadressbook, which I do not think it is a good idea...

I have the following packages of openjdk and icedtea installed.
i openjdk-6-jre - OpenJDK Java runtime, using Hotspot JIT
i openjdk-6-jre-headless - OpenJDK Java runtime, using Hotspot JIT (headless)
i openjdk-6-jre-lib - OpenJDK Java runtime (architecture independent libraries)
i icedtea-6-jre-cacao - Alternative JVM for OpenJDK, using Cacao
i A icedtea-6-jre-jamvm - Alternative JVM for OpenJDK, using JamVM
Now I am not a developer or anything just a user. My use-case are two :-
a. Running java programs on the desktop
b. Running java in the web-browser.
I *think* both of them get installed by default. Openjdk via the default-jre virtual package while icedtea due to some of the openjdk headless packages.
~$ aptitude why openjdk-6-jre
i default-jre Depends openjdk-6-jre (>= 6b23~pre8-2~)
~$ aptitude why icedtea-6-jre-jamvm
i openjdk-6-jre-headless Recommends icedtea-6-jre-jamvm (= 6b23~pre8-2)
~$ aptitude why openjdk-6-jre-headless
i openjdk-6-jre-lib Depends openjdk-6-jre-headless (>= 6b17)
$ aptitude why openjdk-6-jre-lib
i openjdk-6-jre-headless Depends openjdk-6-jre-lib (>= 6b23~pre8-2)
Notice the circular dependency at the end. From what I read the headless packages are basically for those systems where a server is running which does not have have a monitor, in which case I wonder why its installed in my system? My actual issue is of having the java for iceweasel. I did search for having java plugins and did not find anything except for icedtea-plugin to run java on my browser.
Trying to install it through gave conflicts :-
$ sudo aptitude install icedtea-plugin
[sudo] password for shirish:
The following NEW packages will be installed:
icedtea-netx{a} icedtea-plugin xulrunner-1.9.1{ab}
0 packages upgraded, 3 newly installed, 0 to remove and 4 not upgraded.
Need to get 8,642 kB/9,103 kB of archives. After unpacking 26.5 MB will be used.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
openjdk-6-jre-headless: Conflicts: icedtea-netx (< 1.1.1-2~) but 1.1-1 is to be installed.
xulrunner-1.9.1: Depends: libmozjs2d (= 1.9.1.16-6) but 1.9.1.16-9 is installed.
The following actions will resolve these dependencies:
Keep the following packages at their current version:
1) icedtea-netx [Not Installed]
2) icedtea-plugin [Not Installed]
3) xulrunner-1.9.1 [Not Installed]
Accept this solution? [Y/n/q/?] q
Abandoning all efforts to resolve these dependencies.
Abort.
I did see the other solutions but most of them recommend downgrading both the openjdk and icedtea packages to the ones in testing rather than in unstable.
