Ubuntu :: Resolution Won't Go Higher Than 640x480 With Nvidia Drivers?

May 24, 2010

I have a FX 5200 and a 26" TV with VGA input which supports 1330x760. No problem with this in Windows, but in Ubuntu, as soon as I install nvidia drivers (175) resolution goes 640x480.

I've tried editing xorg.conf in several different ways, but resolution didn't change, maybe I was doing it the wrong way.

PD: 10.04 Lucid Lynx fresh install

Fedora :: Switching Between Nvdia And Nouveau Drivers?

Jul 8, 2011

I have Fedora 15 installed in my PC and I use it both for gaming and work. Now the open source nouveau driver was working fine, until I had to install the nvidia driver so that I could play torcs, as I was unable to get good graphics in nouveau. Now, when using the nvidia driver, the gnome shell has become too slow and sometimes unworkable, though games run good. Is there any way so that I can use both the drivers and switch between them when needed (say use nvidia when gaming and nouveau while at work) without uninstalling and reinstalling them?

PS: when I boot up, the grub shows two options, one is the fedora with latest kernel and other is the old kernel. Is there a possible way that I use nouveau with old kernel and nvidia in the new kernel? This will really help in switching games and work.

OpenSUSE :: How To Switch From Nouveau To NVidia Drivers

Aug 4, 2010

After installing 11.3, I realised that my graphic driver is not working as desired. I have a Compaq CQ60-430SA laptop with an NVIDIA 8200M graphics card. Earlier with 11.2, I had some proprietary NVidia drivers and my graphics were smooth. However, I am not getting the same performance with Nouveau...

As can be seen from the screen clipping below, the images especially in the preview mode and the icons look jarred (highlighted in red). I have no complains with the video but the images and icons do look shabby at times and therefore I want to switch over to the proprietary NVidia drivers.

OpenSUSE Hardware :: Unable To Find A Way To Configure Nouveau Drivers

Jul 16, 2010

I had dual screen config (large desktop) going on 11.2 with proprietary nvidia driver without problems. After upgrade to 11.3 this didin't work. I was not able to find a way to configure nouveau drivers, and it was stuck in the 'twinview' mode, so decided to install binary nvidia instead (the 'hard way'). Took me a while to figure out 'nomodeset' thing, but in the end drivers were installed successfully. The problem now is that only monitor displays anything, and I can't find the nvidia control panel to activate second monitor and extend the desktop there.

Used to be able to install nvidia control panel easily in 11.2 with one-click install, but for 11.3 the page says that the one-click install buttons aren't ready yet (SDB:NVIDIA drivers - openSUSE) So my question is 'how to get dual screen going and extend my desktop to second screen using 11.3 and nvidia 210 card' ? And I don't care whether it's nouveau or proprietary drivers, as long as it's easy to configure and it works.

OpenSUSE Hardware :: Alteration In Fonts Looks After Change Of Graphic Drivers From Nouveau To NVIDIA?

Jan 8, 2011

I recently changed my Graphic card drivers from Nouveau to nVIDIA in Suse 11.3 KDE.

One thing I have noticed that initially I had been using various Adobe Fonts in many applications prior to change of drivers. But after this change the looks of the same fonts became quite different, the length & breadth of "individual letters" changed quite a lot making them look not so beautiful as they were earlier. Am I missing something or is it a normal phenomenon. But I am satisfied with the present looks.

Fedora Installation :: Nouveau And NVidia Drivers - Jet-black Screen And A Completely Inexpressive Blinking White Cursor

Nov 29, 2009

Although I managed fairly quickly to get 3D enabled on the GF 7600GS of my desktop, it took me longer to get 3D up on the GF 9650M GT of my Asus laptop M70Vn. Although I made extensive use of the numerous procedures outlined here, none of them worked and booting my laptop always ended up with me facing a jet-black screen and a completely inexpressive blinking white cursor. My solution was simple: I did not blacklist Nouveau and problems mysteriously disappeared.

General :: CPUs Keep Toggling Between 100%idle And 0% Idle

Mar 22, 2011

When I run top d 0.5 on my machine and I press 1 to enable the SMP View, I notice that all of the CPUs keep toggling between 100%idle and 0% idle.

The odd part is that when a CPU goes to 0.0% idle, I would expect to see one or more of the other columns peek, but they are not.

What is causing this?

Ubuntu :: Can't Monitor Cpu Temperature?

Jan 2, 2010

I've recently installed Karmic on my new machine with the following specs;

Asus M4A785TD-V EVO Motherboard
AMD Athlon II X4 620 2.6GHz
Crucial 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3
Coolermaster Elite 330 Case
Western Digital WD5000AAKS 500GB

I'm looking to install some sort of temperature monitoring for my cpu and have had luck using either lm-sensors or acpi. With lm sensors, I've followed the various how to's on the forum and am still coming back with nothing. Trying to add hardware monitoring to panel brings up a 'no sensors found!' error, and x-sensors just starts up with a blank screen.

'sensors' in terminal spits back this -
Code:
lou@lou-quad:~$ sensors
No sensors found!
Make sure you loaded all the kernel drivers you need.
Try sensors-detect to find out which these are.
lou@lou-quad:~$

I've added the relevant lines into etc/modules as per the last question during configuration but still no joy. I've just run 'sensors-detect and had a gander at the output, and I'm wondering if its as simple as no one has written a driver for my mobo yet.

Ubuntu :: Check Out Temperature Of Cpu?

Sep 1, 2011

So I would like to check out my cpu temperature in function of time. I've followed [URL]...gpu-en-ubuntu/ but unfortunately in the description it was for the old version of Ubuntu and despite having downloaded the program, I simply can't add it in the taskbar. I did in a terminal: sudo apt-get install sensors-applet. Then I installed a few remaining packets from synaptic. Now how do I run the program?

Ubuntu :: 10.04 - 2 Cores CPU Temperature High

I have a notebook with AMD Athlon 64 QL-62 2 cores CPU. Normally the temperature is 50-52 Celsius in idle but with Ubuntu 10.04 beta 2 idle temp is 60 Celsius. /proc/cpuinfo shows both cores on 1GHz which is good but still temp is higher than usual. I tried to find solution using Google but I didn't find anything.

Ubuntu :: LM Sensors - Cannot Find CPU Temperature

Dec 29, 2010

I have tried lm-sensors and a few others, firefox just crashed.
Phenom II X6 1090T
MSI-890FXA-GD70 motherboard
Ubuntu 10.10

Senors:
k10temp-pci-00c3
Adapter: PCI adapter
temp1: +0.0C (high = +70.0C)
sensors-detect

Now follows a summary of the probes I have just done. Just press ENTER to continue:
Driver `k10temp' (autoloaded):
* Chip `AMD Family 10h thermal sensors' (confidence: 9)
No modules to load, skipping modules configuration.
Unloading i2c-dev... OK

There is a debugging panel on my motherboard, and I think that that displays the CPU temperature, although I am not sure.

General :: CPU Temperature When Installing Ubuntu?

Mar 12, 2010

Trying to install Ubuntu from CD. I choose my language and hit Install and come to a black screen with the Ubuntu symbol glowing (loading everything I assume) and after a minute my screen fills up with messages saying my CPU Temperature is 99 (gets progressively higher) degrees. Is there something else I need to do before installing?

I have windows installed on my C drive and I'm planning on installing Linux on another blank drive. The Ubuntu version is the newest one (9.10) I think. I've got a Core i7, EVGA mobo, Nvidia 9600GT video card, and 6 gigs of memory. HDDs are all WD I believe, and the one I'm putting Linux on is 320 Gig.

Red Hat / Fedora :: Get Temperature Of CPU?

Jun 6, 2011

In my system, the temperature of the CPU can be known from the file,/sys/bus/acpi/devices/LNXTHERM:00/ thermal_zone/temp . But I have found that not all systems have this file. Is there a generic method to get the temperature. Installing a package for this purpose won't be a solution as I'm building a simple gnome-shell extension. Something that comes along with the kernel would be perfect.

What could be other files that can possibly store temperature information, so that it would work on most atleast if not all? Any help like the file that stores temperature on your particular system only would also be highly appreciated.

Ubuntu :: Landscape-sysinfo Not Displaying Temperature?

I am running Lucid x64 on an Gigabyte Mobo with an Intel E6500 CPU.I think this script pulls the temperature from /proc/acpi/thermal_zone. However, that directory is empty.I can get the cpu temp by using lm-sensors or by running this:

Code:
cat /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon0/device/temp1_input
Any ideas on how to get landscape-sysinfo to display the temperature

Ubuntu :: Show CPU Temperature With Conky (AMD / K10Temp)

Oct 13, 2010

I'm struggling to get my Conky feed to show the CPU temperature. I'm working with a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.10. Currently my Conky display shows a CPU temperature of 0 degrees Celsius, and I know this isn't true because I built the computer myself and I'm definitely not that good! Also, the GNOME hardware applet contradicts this and gives a more realistic CPU temperature of 33 degrees Celsius. What I can do to rectify this and get this displayed in my Conky?

The science bit:
I have done a sudo-sensors detect, and for CPU sensors it tells me:
Code:
Some south bridges, CPUs or memory controllers contain embedded sensors.
Do you want to scan for them? This is totally safe. (YES/no): y
Silicon Integrated Systems SIS5595... No
VIA VT82C686 Integrated Sensors... No
VIA VT8231 Integrated Sensors... No
AMD K8 thermal sensors... No
AMD Family 10h thermal sensors... Success!
(driver `k10temp')
AMD Family 11h thermal sensors... No
Intel Core family thermal sensor... No
Intel Atom thermal sensor... No
Intel AMB FB-DIMM thermal sensor... No
VIA C7 thermal sensor... No
VIA Nano thermal sensor... No

The end summary is as follows:
Code:
Now follows a summary of the probes I have just done.
Just press ENTER to continue:
Driver `k10temp' (autoloaded):

Ubuntu :: NTLDR Is Missing - Critical Temperature ?

Jul 11, 2011

I recently installed Ubuntu and wanted to remove the Windows XP installation is was dual booted with (I used Wubi to install Ubuntu), but I ended up just editing boot.ini to remove it from the boot menu and automatically boot in to Ubuntu. But then, Ubuntu started playing up and keeps on popping up with the Critical Temperature warning, saying it's 80-100C although it's the first time it's been turned on in 14 hours... But to add to my confusion, when I try to boot from ANY disk, it comes up with "NTLDR is missing" and a restart message.

OpenSUSE :: HDD Temperature Control?

Mar 29, 2010

There is a question, i'd like to ask: is there any decent program to monitor HDD temperature for linux? WHy are they so few? Suse Install repositories do not show any that could be installed. I used to use hddtemp on my previous 11.2 gnome installation, but it seems now something gone wrong, and i cant get this program anymore through: "sudo apt-get install hddtemp" and receive "sudo: apt-get: command not found", so as i am a newbie i can barely guess what is wrong. maybe there are any other programs to get this thing running. Its really puzzling because every laptop user need such tool badly, and i do not understand why is there so many monitor tools for cpu temperature and not a single good for hard drive which is far more important than cpu temperature, that rises and drops constantly as soon as your fans are fine???
