Ubuntu Multimedia :: Dual Head Doesn't Work Anymore In Lucid?

May 9, 2010

Upon upgrading to Lucid from Karmic, my dual head setup doesn't work anymore with the new 2.6.32 kernel. In the previous kernel 2.6.31, everything works as expected (also when I boot Lucid with that kernel). On 2.6.32, the only thing I get is two clones. Is there some new type of configuration required that I missed or should I still compile some new kernel module???

My card:

Code:
rogier@rogier-desktop:~$ lspci |grep VGA
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon RV250 If [Radeon 9000] (rev 01)
My xorg.conf, which worked fine on Karmic:
Code:
Section "Monitor"

Ubuntu :: Dual Monitor Setup Does Not Work Whenever Install Drivers

Sep 1, 2011

When ever I install the (recommended) drivers through the "Additional Drivers" interface to run Unity my dual monitor setup does not work. The monitors won't even detect correctly what so ever. Then, when ever I install (more basic?) nVidia drivers through the packet manager, my dual monitors work as planned, but now Unity won't work. What's the deal? Are there any work arounds for this?

Ubuntu Installation :: Upgrade 9.10 To 10.04: Keyboard Doesn't Work On X Login Anymore

Apr 30, 2010

Just before Lucid was released, I installed karmic on a vanilla VM in 64-bit mode, and all was good. Did a desktop setup and afterwards installed Eclipse, and I was happy: A new system for coding on-the-go! Now, after upgrading to Lucid with do-release-upgrade -d, I can no longer enter my password on X login. The keyboard just doesn't work for some reason. When I enable the onscreen keyboard, and click my password, I can login. The strange thing is that my keyboard works like a charm after I've logged into my X session?

Ubuntu Installation :: 8.10 Upgrade To 9.10 Dual Monitor Won't Work

Jan 26, 2010

I have a Intel DQ35JOE motherboard with integrated video (DVI and VGA). I've been running Ubuntu 8.10 for at least a year with both monitors working fine. One is a Hanns-G 27.5 inch, the other (VGA) is an older AOC 19". They were both plugged into the motherboard video plugs (it had both), and they worked side-by-side (not mirrored) just fine on 8.10.Last night I decided to go ahead and take the plunge and upgrade to the latest, because I run 9.10 on my laptop and love a lot of the new stuff. The reason I hadn't upgraded was because I feared the potential problems - which I ran into head-on this time.

Upgrade to 9.04 seemed to go fine. Then I immediately did the upgrade to 9.10. Unfortunately, my screens came up upside down and backwards. And the mouse moved the wrong way. And to click on something in the top left of the screen, I had to have my mouse on the bottom right of the screen.Well, I also received a warning that my primary hard disk was failing. So, I decided to just do a clean install of 9.10 on a new disk that I had handy - hoping it would be better if it was a clean install rather than an upgrade.

Now I can't get dual monitor to work at all, and Ubuntu seems to not recognize my monitors. If I just plug one monitor in, it works. But it won't let me adjust resolution above 1280x1024 (my big one is 1920x1200). And it says "unknown" instead of identifying the monitor.Also - at one point both monitors were appearing (but "unknown"), but mirrored, and whenever I uncheck "mirror screens" and click apply, the screen just goes black with a frozen cursor - and I can't even do CTRL-ALT-F6 to get to a terminal - it just freezes the whole computer.

Ubuntu :: Standby Doesn't Work Anymore?

Apr 26, 2010

I'm using Karmic since November and standby/sleep has always worked fine. Some weeks ago, it stopped working fine.

After a reboot, I can put the system in standby only once. If I try standby after that, the system seems to do a normal standby, but it resumes at the moment the fans would normally stop working.

I tried different things like the s2ram program, pmi action sleep, etc. I went to the BIOS and tried a number of things, one was succesfull: disable USB. When USB is disabled I can go into standby every time. When I enable USB again (even with no devices connected), standby only works once again.

So, how can I disable USB at the moment I go into standby?

Ubuntu :: If Don't Use For A Week It Doesn't Work Anymore

Jun 22, 2010

If i use my Ubuntu some times per week, there isn't any problem. But if i don't use it for a short time (a week), when i want use it again and select it on GRUB.. after the first loading screen (on Ubuntu 10.04 the purple screen with Ubuntu in white and some points under), my screen is black. The computer screen is receiving signal because the led is green and not brown/orange like when is on standby mode. On Windows i haven't any problem.

First time it happened with Ubuntu 9.10. I didn't got solution for it and i format the partition and install the 10.04. But now it happen again with 10.04. I have an ATI 5770 and i have tried drivers since 9.12 till 10.4 (last ones the best i have had) On versions before 9.10 i had no problem, but i can't confirm that, because i had other graphic card (NVIDIA 9800GT). But the 5770 didn't work well on previous version so i updated to 9.10 and after this problem, updated to 10.04.

At spanish forum, people don't know solution for this problem, they never read about a similar problem. I hope you know a solution for it, because the only one i found and work is.. format and reinstall.

Ubuntu Installation :: Dual Booting Vista 32bit / 10.4 Doesn't Work

May 7, 2010

I'm still not all confident using sudo, so if you could explain what I need to do in simple steps including the commands I would be ever so grateful. I need my Windows back 'cause while I'm perfectly happy on ubuntu at home, my boss at work thinks Linux is an exotic metalworking tool (or something like that).

Ubuntu :: 9.10 External Microphone Doesn't Work Anymore

Jan 14, 2010

Update 6th March 2010: Update to Kernel 2.6.31-20 SOLVED the problem. Recording works again (still wouldn't in kernels 2.6.31-17 to 2.6.31-19). If a kernel update doesn't solve your problem, please read post 14 on page 2 by Mocha which seems to have solved the problem for other users without updating the kernel

Update 8th February 2010 to Kernel 2.6.31-19 did not solve the problem, please also read post number 7 for more details.

Quick Conclusion for other users who might experience the same problem:

After an update to kernel version 2.6.31-17 in Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala, my external microphone did not work anymore. Playback was possible, just recording would not work anymore, although there was quite some background noise in the headphones. This made it impossible for me to use Skype and/or Sound Recorder.

All the possible solutions offered below did not help in my case (although you might give them a try).

I switched back to kernel version 2.6.31-16 where the problem does not occur.

Output: cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#* | grep Codec

Realtek ALC662 rev1

I know there are lots of threads about this topic, but I have spent hours on this problem already and none of the solutions offered so far worked for me so I decided to start this thread.

I have been using Ubuntu 9.10 and so far, my external microphone worked flawlessly in Skype as well as in Sound Recorder. A few days ago, I received a call on Skype and all the guy on the other side could hear was loud noise. I can only play sound, but not record anymore (i.e. the microphone doesn't work anymore). I tried two different microphones just to be sure whether one was defective and also checked it in Windows (where they both work).

I am not sure what might have caused this problem, I just remember a kernel upgrade about that time (not sure whether this is the reason though). I use 2.6.31-17-generic now.

Here is what I have tried so far:

1) Right-click on the Sound Icon in the top right corner and checked the following: in the hardware tab, it is set to analog stereo duplex, input is set to internal audio analog stereo (no other choice here) and the mic is NOT muted (playing with the volume doesn't help either) and output is set to internal audio analog stereo (again, no other choice) and connector is set to analog output (here I can switch to analog headphones or analog speaker, but makes no difference).

I remember that I could choose between Microphone 1 and Microphone 2 in the input tab; this is somehow magically gone.

2) Installed padevchooser, tried several settings to no avail

3) When I use "alsamixer" (version 1.0.20) in a terminal, Playback>Master is set to 100<>100, Capture is set to 150<>150, lowering and/or playing with these figures doesn't help either.

When I use "alsamixer -Dhw:0" in a terminal, I get the same results as in step four.

4) In Gnome Alsa Mixer, only "Beep" is muted, everything else is set to max. I have Master, Headphon, PCM, Front, Front Mi (x2), Lin, Mic, Mic Boost, Capture (x2, set to record), Beep, Speaker

I have tried to mute/unmute different setting to no avail. Now I wonder why I have two Front Mi and two Capture entries. This is different than it used to be, might this be causing the problem?

5) Fiddling with Pulse Audio Volume Control didn't help either.

6) Had a look at "paman" (pulse audio manager), not sure whether I should change anything here.

7) Installed "linux-backports-modules-alsa-karmic-generic" and rebooted as recommended in several threads, did not help either.

Added the parameters "model=auto" and "probe_mask=1" to '/etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf', did not work, so I deleted the entries again (hint from [url], see post 5)

Now I am at my wits end. I need my microphone to work, especially for Skype, otherwise I have to switch to Windows every time I receive or want to make a call which is definitely not a long-term solution?

Does anybody have an idea what might be causing this problem? As I said, it used to work flawlessly just a few days ago and now I don't even know what I should do next to make it work again...

Output of "amixer"

When I run "alsactl init" I get the following result which might be at least a part of the problem, but I wouldn't know how to solve this problem:

Unknown hardware: "HDA-Intel" "Realtek ALC662 rev1" "HDA:10ec0662,103c303a,00100101" "0x103c" "0x303a"

Ubuntu :: Grub Doesn't Work Anymore Since Update

I've got a double boot system (Windows XP Pro and Ubuntu Maverick). Since I updated Grub2, Grub doesn't work anymore! I'd tried this (because I HAD that error). But since than, I'd a black screen (harddisk didn't anything, and Grub too...) And now, after using a couple of these commands via the Ubuntu Lucid Lynx Live CD I get a mini bash in Grub, but no entry's to one of the two systems! What's wrong, and what do I have to do?

OpenSUSE Hardware :: 11.2 32 Bit: Audigy 2 Doesn't Work Anymore?

May 6, 2010

After installing openSUSE 11.2 to get rid of my suddenly dysfunctional 11.1, my Audigy 2 doesn't produce a single sound anymore - neither via the regular nor the digital output. It used to work like a charm on 11.1. I cannot say how much I have come to hate Linux during the past 12 months after constant problems with system instabilities due to incompatible software component updates and stuff like my system still not working after ominously going out of service and "repairing" it with openSUSE's repair function.

I decided to get into Linux because I found it cool when I started with a couple of years abo and thought it would be well worth getting into an OS that might become the successor of Windows. I also wanted an OS I felt secure with when doing online banking or shopping.

Well, I have to say that Windows 7 delivers on all the promises Linux has made (at least those that are important for me), and that Linux hasn't advanced a micrometer in the time I have started using it. The only thing in favor of Linux was that it worked well enough on my 6 year old hardware. I'd rather purchase some new hardware and Windows 7 on top of than tormenting myself more with this unspeakable PITA Linux has proven to me to be. To hell with it. Stay in your server corner, but stop telling people Linux was anywhere close to being a useful desktop operating system. PS: Yes, I have tried other distros too.

General :: Rolling Menu Doesn't Work Anymore?

Feb 17, 2010

I am using Ubuntu 10.04LTS and receive regular software updates. Being a silver-surfer I frequent an old fogies site called "Beyond the realms of AOL - forumotion.net" where we share memories and the like. The site (message board) has a rolling menu which up until recently worked on my computer ... now it doesn't! When I log-in, the rolling menu pops up for a second and then disappears. I get the feeling that one of the regular upgrades has removed a plugin or something from my system. I have Adobe Flash 10 (latest version) installed ... perhaps I'm missing something!It has to be my system because the rolling menu works perfectly well using Windows XP.

Ubuntu :: Dual Monitor Setup Clones On Login ?

Jun 29, 2011

I'm using the proprietery nvidia drivers on 11.04. I have a dual monitor setup with xinerama. The login screen appears to work fine, I can move my mouse between screens, and only one screen (right) has the login prompt. When I login, both screens show the same thing. While I can move my mouse across, I can only interact when it's on the left side.

I found this: [url], but I cannot start the display settings in the XFCE control center due to "missing randr extentions". Yesterday, I was using Kubuntu 11.04 on this same machine, and the dual monitor setup worked fine.

Hardware :: Dual Monitor Setup In Fedora 13

I added an older 17" CRT to the onboard analog output and the main desktop with my icons and panels immediately switched to the CRT. Kernel is 2.6.34.7-66.fc13.i686, lspci -v says VGA compatible controller ATI Technologies Inc RS880 (Radeon HD 4200). How can I get flatscreen on the DVI output to be the primary?

Slackware :: Boot Into Dual Monitor Setup ?

Jun 15, 2011

I created a dual monitor setup in Slack 13.37 using the KDE systemsettings -> Monitor Setup function. (Sadly I had to rebuild ~/.kde in the process, but that's a different story.)

I verify that ~/.kde/share/config/krandrrc contains the new monitor setup (both screens active). I have saved a startup session with krandrtray running. However, when I logon, the system always starts with both screens in clone mode. I always have to go into systemsettings or krandrtay and redo the dual monitor configuration.

Is there a better way? Do I have to create a suitable xorg.conf (which I will try when I get home) or is there another way to boot into the dual config automatically?
