I used Ubuntu 9.10 with my current PC for about a six months, and never had much of an issue with my motherboard videocard. However, Moving up to 10.10, it seems a lot slower, and I get really bad fps on games. What's wrong here?

I'm using Karmic and just recently had to do a fresh install. After installing I immediately ran the update manager and updated everything I was told to update. Upon rebooting, my resolution is stuck at either 800x600 or 640x480. I've been searching around for a while now, and none of the fixes I've looked at have worked with my architecture. Here's my lspci output.

I have a IBM ThinkCenter workstation with an Intel i810 chipset and can only get a resolution of 800x600 maximum. I have read this url dealing with this chipset and resolution and cannot get anything past 800x600.http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/x-config.htmland here is my /etc/X11/Xorg.conf

Is there anything I can do in Ubuntu 11.04 to get the Intel 945GM to work more stable and run faster? It won't load the Unity interface at ALL. It won't load the Classic Desktop unless I use the one without effects, or else the title bars disappear. Is there something I can do to make it more stable, and run more efficiently?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a Dell Inspiron 1525 laptop with a X3100 on board. The problem is the performance doesn't really fit my expectations. Compiz works fairly OK, but TuxRacer runs at 25 FPS, Glest runs just terribly slow and there is quite noticeable tearing in videos (MPlayer and Totem). Not to mention 400-600 FPS in glxgears.So far I have only tampered with Xorg (see below, changes marked red).

I am running kubuntu 9.10 on a dell inspiron 14 with an intel GM45 graphics card. When I run 3d games like Nexuiz, openarena and tremulous I get really random performance. Sometimes things are totally playable with somewhere between 50-80 fps and other times I get maybe 4 fps and everything takes forever to load. These effects persists between logouts, X restarts and reboots! I get no errors when I run things in console either.I never really play games much but when something doesn't work...
View 8 Replies View RelatedOk first off, I love debian, but on my new notebook I am getting a little frustrated with the terrible, video performance.Direct rendering is enabled on both systems, and openGL is working (I can if I wanted to use compiz etc...) fine on both systems, just running slow on debian.
I have tried Lenny, Squeeze and Sid, I have compiled the intel driver (and Mesa3D) from git and got it working (I am sure its working because its given me a slight boost), I ahve also tried building the latest stable (and RC2) kernel.If I install ubuntu 9.10 I get pretty decent 3D performance, its not ground breaking, but hey its an intel chipset so I am not expecting to kick the latest nvidia / ati card's backside.I really dont want to use ubuntu, I find it unstable when compaired to debian, but I also want to be able to play the odd game when I am bored, and at the moment I just cant do that under debian
having not experienced the issues with jaunty and intel display cards, i can't say whether this is a real problem or not. from what i can tell, mtrr is not a problem.
on my new dell mini 10v w/ intel 945gme and a fresh install of karmic unr, video playback performance is only so-so.
most videos-style flash video is decent. local h.264 playback from .m4v and .mov containers is flawless. but streaming flash video originating as h.264 is dismally choppy - this includes vimeo and hulu-quality streaming video.
So I just turned my computer on and it was beeping rapidly, and it would stop if I hit "Enter". Also this came on my screen: Cannot set Fray", something like that. It boots fine..just what is that?

I just wanted to know if having my laptop set to ondemand, will this affect performance in any way? I realize it increases the clock speed to performance when the CPU is under load, but does the time it take to go from ondemand to performance affect speed? Will there be any noticeable difference between the two setups? I have a dual core intel at 2.2GHz when in performance. When ondemand is set with no load it downclocks to 800Mhz.

View 9 Replies View Related! I'm thinking of buying a corei5-660 on a motherboard with an Intel H55 Express Chipset. Does anyone know if it's fully compatible with OpenSUSE 11.3? I mean video (that comes from the processor, not an off-board PCI), audio (HD Audio), networking (Intel� 82578DC Gigabit), SATA Controller, USB, etc. I've tried to google but didn't find much info so I wonder if anyone is using or knows where I can find more info about it...
I have found this thread on the forums about the H55 chipset: Core i3 Intel Clarkdale graphic controller problem But the problems were facing on 11.2, I don't know about 11.3...
I've installed Suse linux 11.3 (kernel 2.6.34.7-0.5) on my brand new computer HP all in one 5130. Everything worked incredibly well : Wifi, wireless keyboard and mouse, sound, webcam.. There is only one remaining issue : I get a very poor resolution (1280x1024) instead of the 1920x1080 allowed by the screen. The graphic card is an intel chipset (HD graphics) integrated to an intel core i3 CPU. Here is (part of) the X11.org log :

I am wondering, what is the status of Intel GMA X4500 driver on Fedora 10.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI think this happened after I upgraded to 10.04. Any ideas?
View 9 Replies View RelatedMy Ubuntu10.04 installation worked great until recently. But now, this stuff happens:
--On the GNU GRUB ver 1.98-1ubuntu7 list, about half the time I can't move the highlight--no response to keyboard arrow keys, and no response to Enter key--have to wait 60-seconds for highlighted item to start.
--login box's appearance is different, like a different visual scheme/theme
--after login, the screen remains black for a long time before the desktop appears
--when desktop appears, the desktop program icons are gone
--when I launch an app, like the terminal window, it takes a long time for it to open, and after opening, it takes a long time for the prompt tyler9@tyler9-desktop to appear
--Nautilus file browser won't open. When I launch it, I get a button on panel on bottom of screen [like Windows Taskbar] that says "Starting File Browser" but the button disappears, and Nautilus doesn't open. If I enter "nautilus" in terminal window, I get "Bus error."
--Firefox is very slow; typically a delay when I click a tab, and very often, it "darkens"--takes on a darker color and won't respond to clicks. This "darkening" thing happens in other pgms and docs too
--often a long delay when I click anything--panel menu, in a doc, etc
Any ideas for troubleshooting, what the cause(s) might be? My subjective sense is that there's some process(es) running that is causing all this junk. Is there a way to "roll back" to when everything worked OK? Is there an error log or something that might specify why this is happening? [Note: It's not a HW issue--machine is dual-boot Ubuntu/Mint9, and Mint9 works fine--none of the above problems.]
I have a weird problem when I watch videos on most of the video players (mplayer, vlc etc). Here's a screenshot so you can see what I am talking about.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have probably found a bug in the Ubuntu php5 package. At first I thought it's a problem with Zend Framework, which I use, then I thought it's a php issue, but now it seems to be a problem with Ubuntu's php packages. My problem is that under certain conditions, php is going to read records from the mysql database table infinite times. For a much more detailed description of the bug,[URL]..
I've tried on an x86 Ubuntu Desktop edition, and an x64 Ubuntu Server edition, both 10.04, and both had this bug. I have set up a test system (x86 Ubuntu Server edition 10.04), and compiled apache2 and php5 from source, but used the mysql-server package from the repository. And I couldn't reproduce the bug. However, after copying the self-compiled libphp5.so file from the test system to the desktop that produces the error, I could still reproduce the error on the desktop. This suggests me that the problem is either not in php, or - more probably - there are multiple php binaries used in the repository version, and therefore it doesn't matter that I've copied my libphp5.so because mysql functions are somewhere else. I've found a mysql.so file in /usr/lib/php5/20090626+lfs coming from the php5-mysql package. Does that have anything to do with this issue?

View 3 Replies View Relatedsince yesterday my 11.04 system behaves real strange. Firstly, i can not use any of my external storage media anymore (detachable cd-rom among them). On several devices i tried to mount, they would not appear in /media/ dir, neither could i see them in Nautilus. I know that the system does recognize them in the usual fashion as before, which i can see in system.log and for example GParted.
The other thing is i can't access my trash anymore - when clicking on it in Nautilus, i get the "Sorry, could not display all the contents of "trash": Operation not supported" message. Last obvious and weird thing was that my Ubuntu One panel personalizations i have made since installing are gone (that is adding and removing icons from there) - it is back to the "original" state which was just after installation.
I didn't notice anything else obvious - apart from the things already mentioned, system seems to work fine.The worthy of mentioning things i've done before these failures was the downloading of system updates and installing of some software (tex-base, monkeyaudio codec, DropBox; actually i've got a shadow of doubt cast on this last one, since installing it required some changes to Nautilus). I don't have any previous kernel to try to load.
Since it's been only a month of usage of ubuntu on my new machine reinstalling it wouldn't hurt me so much, but i would really fancy to find out the root of this strange behavior of the system i am experiencing.
I am in 8.04. Recently installed conky and wanted to have this conkyrc - [url] You may see how it should look.
Also I tried other conkyrc, but every time I got one annoying thing.
Conky is displaying some weird letters in front of every line of info.
Here is the screenshot of what's going on:
You can see big letters S P M at the beginning of every line. If I am adding more info to display, those letters continue to appear on every line.
Instead of these letters their should be icons as on screenshots in gnome look
