Ubuntu Multimedia :: Poulsbo Driver Installation On 9.10?

Nov 30, 2010

The Poulsbo support page here: [URL] suggests that Poulsbo support is broken in 10.10 but 'Excellent' in 9.10. When I installed the driver in 10.10 it installed OK, and works OK except for video playback. When I then tried to install it on 9.10 using the same procedure, it downloaded the drivers but then did not automatically build/install/configure them, and there was no change to the video behaviour. I presume it simply didn't execute the relevant scripts etc after downloading the packages. What might have gone wrong ? What else can I try ? The terminal command I used in both cases was similar to this:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gma500/ppa && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install poulsbo-driver-2d poulsbo-driver-3d poulsbo-configThe system is a Dell Mini 12, which uses the Intel GMA500 Poulsbo chipset.

Debian Multimedia :: Compiling Intel Atom Poulsbo GMA 500

Jun 17, 2010

The intel <Xorg> driver provides 2D and 3D support for Intel integrated graphics chipsets, including the i810, 915{G,GM}, 945{G,GM,GME}, 946GZ, 965{G,GM,Q}, G33, Q33 and Q35; the <GMA 500> is not supported.

Packaged for Debian as xserver-xorg-video-intel. [url] [url] [url].

Poulsbo is the codename of Intel's second-generation ultra mobile PC chipset. Its GMA 500 graphics core is not supported by the intel Xorg driver; ITP xserver-xorg-video-psb filed as Debian bug #533450.

Poulsbo (chipset) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - [url]

Poulsbo's graphics core GMA 500 is currently not well supported by Intel for the Linux platform.

However there is a quite easy way to have the drivers work on any Debian-based distribution, thanks to the Ubuntu sources and packages, for the linux kernel 2.6.30 (with newer kernel it would need a little hacking but seems still possible while the sources are included).

Hardware :: 2.6.31.6 Kernel Support For POULSBO SCH IDE Controller?

Nov 1, 2010

I have been unable to boot my CoreExpress Atom Z530 based board from flash, because my 2.6.31.6 kernel does not seem to have support for the (US15W chipset) IDE controller configured. I have read many web links that point to CONFIG_PATA_SCH as the key, but that does not work for me. I _can_ boot RedHat 2.6.18-164.e15 which does not have CONFIG_PATA_SCH configured, but I believe they are using initrd.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: New Nvidia Driver Installation In 10.04?

Jun 16, 2010

I wish to update my nvidia driver (I was running 195.36.24 and I want to update to 195.36.31). I followed all the instructions on this thread (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1467074) and everything went well until this part:

Code:
sudo sh blahblah.run

The error I get in the terminal reads: You appear to be running an X server; please exit X before installing. For further details, please see the section INSTALLING THE NVIDIA DRIVER in the README available on the Linux driver download page at [URL]...I have no idea how to exit X as it's not in my system processes.I have updated my nvidia driver in the past but have never encountered this problem. I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 on a Dell XPS M1530 if that matters.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: X Does Not Start After Nvidia Driver Installation On 10.10?

Feb 16, 2011

I am trying to install ubuntu 10.10 on my new computer: an Asus U33Jc. It is a 64bit machine. Everything seems Ok until I try to install the nvidia drivers. First, I tried to install it through the graphical interface as it popped up shortly after the install. Then, I tried to install the most up to date driver (290.19.36) found on nvidia's website. In both cases I get the same problem.

When I boot the computer it freezes at startup typically at the stage: "Checking battery state..." but not only (sometines before or after). In any case I never get to a graphical interface. I looked at many forums on the web (here here here and here for instance). But no solution work so far. Apparently there is a conflict with nouveau so I have blacklisted it. It seems the computer does not send the information on the good output, so I tried to twick my xorg.conf in different ways without any result.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: 4870x2 Catalyst Driver \ Finding The Proper Configuration Of OS Version And Driver Version?

Apr 8, 2010

I've been searching for an hour or so and can't seem to find a concrete answer. My endgame is having Ubuntu successfully installed (either 9.10 or 10.04) with a fully working Ati 4870x2. I desperately need some help on finding the proper configuration of OS version and driver version. I installed 10.04 with the 10.3 driver package from ATI's site and it was a no go - I had nothing but problems.

I would like to have full 3d acceleration so I can play some games through Wine. This is a powerful card - I know ATI doesn't have a great reputation in the Linux world but I really hope there is a driver version I can install to get some good results.The rest of my specs are in my signature I need to install 64 bit Ubuntu to make use all of the system and video ram.

Ubuntu Installation :: 64bit Installation Error During Installation Of Xserver-xorg-driver-all

Jan 20, 2010

I'm trying to install Kubuntu 9.10 on my machine (I had the same problem with Kubuntu 9.04). The machine is:

- Core 2 Quad 6600
- Nvidia 7600 GS
- Two disk seagate 500 in mirroring raid software

When I try to install Kubuntu, after disk partition, my system dosn't see the CD. He tell me to insert disk into drive but I doesn't touch it. I resolved this mounting an external hard disk into /cdrom. After this, the installation continues until the step "select and install software". At this step, the installation procedure tell me an error. During this error, in the other console, I've this:

Code:

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Change The Driver From X11 To Xv?

Feb 19, 2010

I have just installed mplayer and everything seems to work fine until i try to go fullscreen. When i do, the actuall size of the video stays the same and the rest of the screen is filled with a black border. I have seen the main problem by many people, and the solution they all found was to change the driver from x11 to xv.

In my case however, the only driver working is x11. Anything else gives the following error Quote: Error opening/initializing the selected video_out (-vo) device This is also quite wired since the output of mplayer -vo help says that all the drivers are available.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Ati Driver Not Configured?

Mar 23, 2010

I installed envyng using Synaptic Package Manager and when it finished I used CTRL+ALT+F1 and went through the steps on setting up the ATI driver, there was only 1 driver for my card in the list to choose from so I went for that, I then rebooted when prompted me to do so.

Just before It's about to goto the login window my screen flashes a couple of times then it throws me an error:

Ubuntu is running in low-graphics mode

The following error was encounted. You may need to update your configuration to solve this.(EE) No devices detected.

What would you like to do?

* Run ubuntu in low-graphics mode for just one session
* Reconfigure graphics
* Troubleshoot the error
* Exit to console login

My card is a Radeon 7000 AGP (Yes very old hehe) anyone know the the fix for this?

Ubuntu Multimedia :: 9.10 Change Audio Driver To HD-ATI-SB (used In 9.04)?

Jan 11, 2010

This is my 2nd try with 9.10 and audio has this screeching thingie that its driving me crazy. I've been using both 8.10 and 9.04 with perfect sound and everytime I come into 9.10 I have this horrorific sound that no matter what I do I can't fix it. In a thread somebody suggested to change the audio channels from 5.1 to 7.1 (which made sense since my hardware really is 7.1). but there's no 7.1 option available.

When I do lspci -v... I can see that:

Code:
00:14.2 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA)
Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. Device 82fe
Flags: bus master, slow devsel, latency 64, IRQ 16

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Nvidia-glx-173 Driver Won't Download - Keeps Asking For CD

I've installed 9.10 and wish to use the nvidia-glx-173 driver as recommended by jockey. Using the jocky GUI just hangs at 100% cpu, a significant portion of which is the cdrom process; I've tried installing the package directly in aptitude and get the error:

Ubuntu Multimedia :: ATI Driver And Radeon 5750

May 13, 2010

I installed Lucid when I had my Nvidia board in the computer. Yesterday I pulled out the nvidia board and installed my new Radeon 5750. Hearing that the Open Source driver is the way to go, I first decided to try that. I edited xorg.conf replacing "nvidia" with "radeon", since this is the module name (right?) but it still doesn't seem to load. Does anyone have an example of what a properly configured xorg.conf is supposed to look like using the ATI Open Source driver? I get X up and running in "low graphics mode", but can never get beyond that.

Trying to turn on window effects causes a "searching for drivers" dialogue to appear and then disappear without success. A quick "glxinfo |grep -i render" indicates that it is indeed in the software mode. I even tried to manually modprobe the radeon module and restart GDM, but still nothing. At first I thought this was a limitation of the Open Source drivers on 5xxx series boards, but this page suggests that it should work in "gold" status. I have since installed FGLX and it is just terribly buggy, so I am hoping to use the Open Source driver.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Can't Get NVIDIA 195.36.24 Driver Installed

May 19, 2010

I have a Zotac IONITX-F-E motherboard (Intel Atom Dual Core 1.6 GHz + Nvidia ION) -based box with Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit installed. My goal is to play back 1080p video. I read somewhere that the nouveau driver that installs by default with ubuntu 10.04 does not support VDPAU. So, my first step is to install the nVidia proprietary driver. I tried following a half-dozen different guides for doing this, none of which worked. Let's take this one for example: [URL] I purge. I reboot. I run the Nvidia installer (NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-195.36.24-pkg2.run). I get:

Code: ERROR: Unable to create '/usr/lib/nvidia-current/libGL.so.195.36.15' for copying (no such file or directory). So, I run: Code: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-185 nvidia-185-modaliases I try the nvidia installer again. It works. I reboot. I get a message saying that ubuntu is running in low graphics mode, because loading the nvidia kernel module failed. I check /var/log/messages and see: Code: API mismatch: the client has version 195.36.24 but the kernel module has version 195.36.15. I take a Tylenol and here I am.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Unable To Use The Nvidia Driver

May 28, 2010

I just performed a clean install of Kubuntu Lucid earlier this week after deciding it was time to upgrade from Hardy. Pretty much everything worked, until I attempted to install the proprietary NVIDIA driver.

OS details: Kubuntu 10.04 x64 Kernel 2.6.32.22.What happened when I tried to install the proprietary nvidia-current package was simply that it didn't work. I could open the nvidia utility, it would say the driver was not in use. Attempts to force the issue by running nvidia-xconfig would render the X server unable to start, which gave me some quality time in a shell console with APT or restoring the xorg.conf file from backup. Trying to compile and install the driver from nvidia also wasn't working out so well.

I think the issue boiled-down to the install presumably attempting to upgrade the kernel during initial install from CD, but not doing so completely. I had all the appropriate 2.6.32.22 kernel and header packages, but GRUB was apparently still booting to the 2.6.32.21 kernel (which had no headers or anything) and not giving options to boot to the upgraded kernel.

How I fixed this was to remove all packages related to the 2.6.32.22 kernel via APT, then remove all the 2.6.32.21 kernel packages. That second operation triggered the 2.6.32.22 kernel to be reinstalled, and GRUB to be configured correctly to boot to it. At that point, I reinstalled nvidia-current, and it worked. I tried this after determining I was on the 2.6.32.21 kernel, and had no option to boot to the 2.6.32.22 one.

Your mileage may vary. In retrospect, I probably could've fixed it by fixing GRUB to boot to the current kernel. This appears to be a consistent issue, as I reinstalled at one point, just to start over, and went through the same thing again.

I suspect the driver I obtained from the nvidia website and patched (due to issues it has with recent kernels) might work now that I'm booting to the correct kernel with headers, but I think I'll save that for another time since nvidia-current is working great for me at the moment.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Installing Creative Xi-Fi Driver (64-bit)

Ubuntu Multimedia :: 10.10 Nvidia Proprietary Driver No GUI

Nov 23, 2010

Installing Mythbuntu 10.10, which I finally got installed properly. At first I installed the open-source video drivers just to make sure the installation worked, then I installed the "version current" proprietary drivers using the graphics drivers manager...tool...thing. However, when I restarted the computer, it has a text-mode splash screen and I stay in the first virtual terminal.

If I try to go to the GUI "terminal" [Ctrl-Alt-F7], it appears to be partway through some kind of check:

Code:

I ran sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg to try to get back to the open-source drivers, but it didn't give any text output and went straight to the next line of command prompt, when I restarted it did the exact same thing. Any tips for at least getting back to the open drivers? I'd like to not have to reinstall again (I'm dual-booting WinXP,). The card in question is a GeForce 6200 AGP.
