Ubuntu :: Unable To Enable 3D Acceleration
Aug 17, 2011
i'm currently running Ubuntu 11.04.Heres my problem. Everytime i try to run Compiz and apply some of the fantastic effects none of them seem to work. So this tells me that something is either wrong with my graphics driver (because upon a clean install of Ubuntu it says i don't have a graphics card that can supoort Unity) or i've just simply missed a step in adding one.I've checked Nvidia X server only to get the message "You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver Please edit your x configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig as root)" I would love to run it in root if (and don't laugh) i only knew how :
From the many commands i've found online i've tired to either get to or find xorg.conf and if i'm mistaken doesn't exist for some reason. In a nutshell. I can't enable 3d acceleration, i can't find xorg.conf.I currently have 325m Nvidia card on my laptop, if it helps : I can give a ton of other information in necessary.

I can't enable 3d acceleration because when I enable the Desktop effects, and I exit the window, they are not active.. I enter in the desktop effects configuration again, and I can see that the option "enable" is uncheck.. I'm a newbie.. Can you explain me how do I get the driver for my Nvidia GeForce 9600M GT (512 MB of Graphic RAM)? Do I have enough power to run 3d?

I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) & recently added Ubuntu Studio to it. For quite some time, I'm trying to enable direct 3d acceleration on a virtual XP SP3 machine running over VMware Workststion 7.0.1.
As per VMware forums & many other sites, 3d hardware acceleration is supported for XP as guest provided that host Linux version is supported by the VMware product running that VM.
The forum also says that Ubuntu 9.10 is now supported by Workstation 7.0.1.
So: I have a supported version of host (Ubuntu 9.10) XPSP3 as guest. Latest version of VMware tools installed. Still I don't get hardware acceleration for the guest XP VM.

I have an HP laptop with an ATI 4300 HD built-in. When I play avi/divx video in fullscreen, this is kinda choppy sometimes. I use the ATI proprietary driver: How do I enable hardware video acceleration for this driver?

Moving from 10.10 to 11.04 on i3-530 IGP. Launching VMware and opening any virtual machine results in the VMware window opening and quickly vanishing. The VMware process is still running without any display.VMware runs on 10.10 but without any hardware acceleration.How can I get VMware to run, and how do I enable hardware acceleration?

I recently installed Deluge 1.2.0 from the following PPA:[URL]I using this on two different Linux computers. One is running Linux Mint 8 and the other is running Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.10. The first time on either computer when I enable WebUI in the Deluge GUI it works fine. However if I ever disable it in plugins section I am subsequently unable to re-enable it (doesn't appear in the side panel again). Rebooting or reinstalling Deluge seems to have no effect.Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

opensuse v11.2, linux 2.6.31.12-0.1-desktop x86_64
ati radeon hd3200 (built into motherboard)
gnome desktop
The video acceleration is clearly not enabled since I can practically watch each pixel drawn. (Well, a bit hyperbolic, but really slow.) Another system, same hardware, had this slow video problem and at one point required a complete OS re-installation. The slow video refresh went away. So there is some way to configure the graphics+display to enable acceleration at install time.

I installed new ati radeon drivers in the morning because i was getting display/screen deformation when using some programs (like vertical lines and so on). Now everything is just fine but i can't get 3d accelerator to work and due to this some games are running very slow. I am a new linux user. I have done everything i know and searched this from the internet but i can't get 3d acc. to work again. i have installed new drivers over the old ones (or i don't know; mesa?)

I'm using Debian Jessie with nvidia, and i am unable to disable mouse acceleration.
I have tried using this config in xorg.conf.d but without success.
Code:
Select all Section "InputClass"
Identifier "Cooler Master Storm Havoc Mouse"
MatchIsPointer "yes"
Option "AccelerationProfile" "-1"
Option "AccelerationScheme" "none"
EndSection
In the xorg log it seems as if the devices are incorrectly recognized
Code:
Select all[ 6.786] (II) config/udev: Adding input device Cooler Master Storm Havoc Mouse (/dev/input/event9)
[ 6.786] (**) Cooler Master Storm Havoc Mouse: Applying InputClass "evdev keyboard catchall"
[ 6.786] (II) Using input driver 'evdev' for 'Cooler Master Storm Havoc Mouse'
[ 6.786] (**) Cooler Master Storm Havoc Mouse: always reports core events
[ 6.786] (**) evdev: Cooler Master Storm Havoc Mouse: Device: "/dev/input/event9"
[ 6.786] (--) evdev: Cooler Master Storm Havoc Mouse: Vendor 0x2516 Product 0x1d
[ 6.786] (--) evdev: Cooler Master Storm Havoc Mouse: Found 1 mouse buttons
[Code] ....
Here it seems as if the mouse is recognized twice, once as a mouse and once as a keyboard, where it says "Cooler Master Storm Havoc Mouse: (accel) keeping acceleration scheme 1" so I'm wondering if this is what causing the problem with mouse acceleration not working.
However my USB headset also seems to be recognized as a keyboard in the xorg log, but it works just fine. In xinput list and xfce mouse settings, the mouse is listed twice and even the keyboard is listed as a mouse.
Code:
Select allVirtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)]
⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ Cooler Master Storm Havoc Mouse id=9 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ Cooler Master Storm Havoc Mouse id=10 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ Logitech USB Keyboard id=11 [slave pointer (2)]
⎣ Virtual core keyboard id=3 [master keyboard (2)]
[Code] ....
in dmesg, the mouse is also listed twice, once as a mouse and once as a keyboard
Code:
Select all[ 5.891478] input: Cooler Master Storm Havoc Mouse as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.2/usb6/6-1/6-1:1.0/0003:2516:001D.0002/input/input11

I know it is saying that the harddrive that I installed ubuntu is missing.
Heres the story:
My friend's computer wouldnt let him boot to the CD to install Ubuntu on his computer.
So I put his harddrive into my computer as my 3'rd Harddrive and booted the CD on my Machiene and installed Ubuntu to his harddrive.
We got ubuntu to work just fine, and then I removed his harddrive from my computer... big mistake. I no longer have the harddrive that we installed ubuntu to so I cannot use any programs or anything.
What I want to do is get my Windows 7 working again. Right now I cannot do ANYTHING.
I have tried code...

So, I've been using Ubuntu (currently 10.04 lucid) for a while now and have added several repositories to my software sources before with never a problem, but now when I try to add a new repository the 'add source' button won't highlight and I am unable to add the repository. Does anyone have any idea why this might be because it is severely irritating me right now and I really don't want to have to completely reinstall Ubuntu to fix this.

I ran Windows on this computer but it decided it wanted to die on me yesterday, so right now I'm using a Ubuntu Live CD. I wanted to save my files before I install Ubuntu on this harddrive, but when I click on 'Computer', I can't see my harddrive. However, if I go to Disk Utility I am able to see the drive: Unknown (500GB) and Unknown (490GB). I cannot access any of the partitions, so I tried to mount them. When I do that, I get the message code...
The same goes with /sda1/ which kind of sucks. I also tried with /sda/ but it didn't work either. I should probably also mention that when I try to run the Ubuntu installer it shows my harddrive, but no partitions.

I have a Dell Inspiron 1525 and I've been trying to boot into the live mode. I can get into the main 'Try Ubuntu without any changes' menu, but selecting that option causes the CD tray to spin up, followed by the head audibly flailing about for a minute or two causing the laptop to noticeably vibrate, followed by nothing. It doesn't boot or give any errors, it just stops. I can read the discs just fine in Windows.
So far I've tested shipit CDs of 9.10, 9.04 and 8.10. All cause the above problem. 8.04 works perfectly.

I have loaded the Ubuntu 10:10 Live and downloaded ms-sys. The problem is Ubuntu is unable to mount the HDD - not in fstab.
I have Ubuntu and Win 7 on the HDD.

I've been dual booting 10.10(with Windows7) for about a month. Today is the first time I've encountered a serious problem.
This morning, nothing functioned properly after trying to open up several programs. The computer seemed to be "frozen", although the mouse was working fine.
I decided to reboot, but then encountered an even bigger problem. It failed to boot and got this message code...
