I just assembled a new computer with Intel Core I3 processor and Asus P8H67 motherboard and 4 MB of memory. It has a 2TB Hitachi Deskstar Hard Drive and Asus DVD. I am trying to load Ubuntu 10.10 directly (without first loading Windows) without success.
I have tried 4 separate downloads of Ubuntu - 64 bit, 32 bit with Desktop and Alternative. I have changed a variety of parameters and various tricks suggested on other threads. The Desktop (32 and 64) versions get me to Busybox shell with message (Initramfs) Unable to find a medium using live file system. The Alternative version hangs with the messages:
RAMDISK: Couldn't find valid RAM image startgin at 0;
No filesystem could mount root, tried ext3, ext2, ext4, fuseblk;
Kernal panic - not syncing VHS;
Unable to mount root fs on unkown block(1,0).
For parameters I think have tried them all (but not in all combinations). I tried exiting twice from BusyBox as suggested on forums but that just hangs the system. I also turn off the quiet and splash to try and see what is going on....but it is too complex and goes to fast for me to follow.
A final suggestion was that the P8H67 is too new for Ubuntu 10.10 and to try the new version 11 coming out...I am new to Linux and reluctant to try a Beta
I don't get any sound with any version of Lenny on my new ASUS M4A785TD-V EVO motherboard. However the sound works fine when I boot from the Debian Live 60 Alpha1 AMD64 KDE DVD. I can always wait until Squeeze is released and then do an upgrade but I'd like to get the sound working now. Any suggestions?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI just lost my weekend trying to install Xubuntu 10.04 on my pc I made the ps a while back - its built on a ASUS P4S800D-E motherboard and it has an ATI Radeon 9200 LE graphics card. It has a PS/2 keyboard and mouse, 1Gb of memory and a 160Gb PATA/IDE hard drive (I unplugged the SATA drives) Every time I installed or made a tweak to the config it failed in the same way. It showed its failure by continually repeating the first character typed. Regardless of whether this was the password screen for synaptic or just the first character typed into a terminal. Until the first character was typed the mouse seemed to work ok but then it would stall too
I've tried most things, running Xorg with/without an xorg.conf file, loading the ppa kernel and tweaking loads of bios and grub boot parameters all to no avail. So I think I want a more linux friendly graphics card and I fear I may need a new motherboard. Can someone recommend a replacement graphics card for this motherboard? Can anyone reassure me that my motherboard is ok with linux?
I can't hear any sound in Debian with my new Asus motherboard . In Windows i have no problem.
Linux was reinstalled from scratch and speakers are connected to the green port of the motherboard.
I tried to find a solution all around the web without success.
Here there are links to some specs and logs of my system and to the log of alsa-info.

I'm starting to spec out a new GNU/Linux boxen. I'm considering the ASUS P6X58D Premium motherboard. Has anyone had any experience with this board in terms of compatibility with openSUSE 11.2/11.3? I'm mainly concerned about:
on-board sound: Realtek ALC889
ethernet: Marvell 88E8056
new interfaces: SATA3, USB3.0
being able to use: AHCI (which I had to turn off on a netbook, Acer Aspire 1410, for hard drive stability), 64-bit kernel I'm planning to use an i7-930 or i7-950 (should the price drop in August as rumored) with 6 GB DDR3 1333 RAM (not planning to overclock, as yet). The graphics card will probably be an NVidia GT240 or so (budgeting about $100 for the graphics card).
Also, I'm hoping to move some old IDE drives over using IDE->SATA 1 bridge cards. Any advice on this? Or should I just get a new SATA 3 drive? For the optical drives (DVD RW/CD RW), I'd like to use bridge cards since there's no benefit for the higher speed SATA interface, or is there?
P.S. For the naive question: As I haven't dealt with 64-bit installs before... I would need the 64-bit kernel for full access to all the extra address space, correct? After that, I can still run 32-bit apps, with a slight speed penalty?
This is really not a Linux or SuSE question. However, the folks on this forum are polite and knowledgeable, so I will give it a try.In the process putting together a new computer.About 99% confident in the following:otherboard: ASUS Crosshair IV FormulaCPU: AMD Phemon II X4 955Graphics card: Gigabyte GV-R685D5RAM: Unknown. ASUS, as well as several other motherboard suppliers, have not approved of any 1x4GB DDR3 RAMS. Has anyone had success with getting a 1x4GB DDR3 RAM to work on the ASUS Crosshair IV motherboard?

I have done so by plugging in a Realtec lan card - but can't get the motherboard lan working. Googling tells me the motherboard has a Atheros L1E lan chip - but I have installed several kmod drivers from ELREPO - but still can't get the on-board lan working. So far I have installed:
kmod-atl1e
kmod-atl1
I have just installed these with yum - but no new hardware appears in the network gui dialogue. Am I missing some step here - or is there another driver I should be looking for.

View 12 Replies View RelatedLast time I bought a new computer (I build them myself) I got a motherboard that had really poor linux support for a long time. Specifically the audio. I had to wait months before the kernel supported the on board audio chipset. That is exactly the situation I'm trying to avoid this time around.
I have some specific questions about "server motherboards" actually. I looked at a few models of server motherboards by intel, and some random models on newegg. I wasn't able to see much of a difference from regular desktop motherboard other than most had two sockets, and support for much more ram. These boards seem more popular with Linux users. Why?
AMD and Intel both have server CPUs as well. Some question, what's the difference?
To make this question more concrete, I was looking at this this motherboard. The main questions about it that I can't answer are:
Can I get a motherboard without on board raid and audio? I wanted to get a hardware raid controller and a PCI audio card. I thought a server motherboard would be cheaper and not have these "extras", since who wants an audio card on a server?
Where can I found out about Linux support for the components on this board? "Intel ICH10R", "Realtek ALC889", "Marvell 88E8056"
I'm buying this computer to work as a Linux desktop for a lot of compiling, coding and audio/video work, but I don't want to rule out the possibility of installing windows and playing some games at one point. (even if the last game I got has been sitting in its box unopened for almost a year). Is it a good idea to buy a "server motherboard" and play games on it, or are desktop boards better value for this?
The ultimate solution for me would be a motherboard that had GPL divers for onboard LAN, a single CPU socket, lots of PCI express and PCI. USB 3.0, and no fancy hard disk controllers since I'll be getting a separate one.
I'm thinking of buying a new motherboard for my desktop. I've chosen a model and I've read some reviews on it. A couple of the reviews talk about BIOS updating/flashing and stuff like that. As a moderate hardware guy (I've built computers, but only know the basics of hardware and how they work together) running Linux, should I worry about this. I've never updated/flashed my current mobo's BIOS
So are all these reviews specific to Windows users? I've never had much driver issues in Linux (other than ATI graphics cards), nor have I had to update BIOS.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI recently installed ubuntu 9.10 dual boot. All went well until I upgraded the video drivers for the nvidia chipset on my motherboard. If I leave Gnome to start with the single user i created i get a black screen and 'mode not supported ' message on the monitor. BUT if i drop to root and 'startx' all is well and i can adjust the various screen resolutions and they all work well.
At this point i created another user name to check, and that works fine also, but if i drop back to the original user i get no screen unless i select 800x600, although all the other resolutions work fine with root and the other user name. Im stumped as I presume there's only one xorg.conf file for all users.
How do I install the proprietary drivers for an ASUS 901?
Im running wine and stuff that ran at full settings on my damn windows 98 computer are slow as balls. So I checked into drivers and it says I dont have any proprietary drivers installed and it didnt see any.
I am trying to compile the drivers for my new wireless adapter card. It has me copy a specific configuration based on my Kernal (2.6 which is supported) to a Makefile, then "make all."I get an error after performing this task stating that the path ending in /build is not a directory. I follow the path to /build and "build" is shown in red letters with a black box around it. Just for fun I attempted MKDIR build, and it stated "file exists" ls-la says it is not a directory. I think this is where it is bombing, from the Makefile:
make -c /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build SUBDIRS=$(shell pwd) modules
I have an Asus UL80vt laptop. This laptop has an integrated (Intel) as well as a discrete (Nvidia 210m) graphics card.
I want to use the nvidia proprietary drivers because from what I understand, it's the easiest way to set up dual monitors (I have an external monitor). I installed the latest nvidia driver: NVIDIA-Linux-x86-190.53. When I try to run the NVidia X Server Settings GUI, it tells me that "You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server. "
I checked out my xorg.conf and changed the device driver to 'nvidia' instead of 'nv'. Curiously, when I run nvidia-xconfig, it changes the intel device to 'nvidia' which is a problem. So i skipped running that and just stuck with my xorg.conf. When I run startx, I get a message saying "failed to initialize the NVIDIA graphics device PCI:1:0:0".
I've combed through multiple forums which state different kinds of solutions and I've tried different kernel options such as 'vmalloc=512m' or 'noapic' to no avail.
P.S. I've attached my xorg.conf file
Maybe sounds silly but I couldn't find on the web how to install my motherboard sound driver on Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic. I can't use my microphone and Linux can't identify my soundMAX sound card, but I have sound.
View 1 Replies View RelatedThere are currently two options for nVidia drivers in Lucid Lynx, 173, and current. With the video card in my laptop, 9650m GT, the 173 drivers work but Docky is painfully, unusably slow. With the "current" drivers, Docky is fine but I get progressively worse and worse static-type lines across my screen and eventually it the machine restarts itself. I've tried installing drivers manually but they won't compile against the kernel.
Before installing Lucid, I had 9.04 Jaunty installed, and Docky (at the time still merged with gnome-do) worked without a hitch. I ran into this error first when I installed 9.10 and decided to go back to 9.04, hoping that it would be fixed. I can't remember which version of the nVidia drivers I was using in Jaunty, but is there any way to go back to those drivers in Lucid?

I have a Wireless PCI-Express Adapter which I wish to install the drivers, though am having difficulty. The chipset on my card is a Ralink. I have visited the Ralink Website Ralink corp. and downloaded the RT2860 Wireless Lan Linux Driver version 2.3.0.0. I have extracted the files within my home directory. I have read the readme file, and from what I understand I have needed to do... I have typed in the Make command as a "super user". Unfortunately I have had no success and it states the following output.

I would like to install Fedora 11 on an ASUS P5L-VM 1394 motherboard with a 3 GHz Pentium 4 CPU. This is an LGA775 socket mobo with a Intel 945G chipset. Two SATA hard drives are plugged into SATA ports. An IDE DVD drive is plugged into the IDE/ATA port. Using the 32 bit Fedora 11 installation disk, I have seen two cases:
1) No hard drive recognized. When i get to the disk configuration screen, there are no options to choose from.
2) By monkeying around with the BIOS settings or switching the SATA ports the disks are connected to, I can get an alternative mode in which no drivers are found for the DVD drive either.
Currently, a version of Ubuntu is installed. UPDATE: The board was purchased in a P3-PH4C barebones, which for unknown reasons requires a different BIOS issue than the regular P5L-VM 1394. Updating to the most recent BIOS does not resolve the problem. One the installation procedure fails to recognize the hard drives, going into a shell and examining the boot up log shows that the kernel recognized both hard drives. So it's down to why the installation procedure is not recognizing them.
