The open source drivers don't work with HDTVs right so I needed to install ATI drivers
Im so upset because I FINALLY got Kernerl 3.0 working, but now recovery mode won't even work with the ATI drivers
I installed driver 11.8, my card is a 5770. Is there anything I can to do boot it up and somehow remove the bad drivers?
I'm brand new to Ubuntu and have a MX860 wireless printer.I want to use it from the Ubuntu system.The printer is already on line and functional wirelessly.I downloaded the drivers but it is unclear how to load.I expected to click on something to load but there are a whole bunch of files enclosed.Clicking the install.sh file makes the screen blink but that is about it.A screen print of the main files is attached.

I'm running Archlinux. I used pacman(update/package manager) to download video drivers for my card, which was xf86-video-cirrus. Everything went well. Now I want to load the module/drivers.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI recently received a used laptop that I was going to use for my kids, a Compaq Presario 2100. Everything went fine on the install, however I could not get the WiFi to work. The internal card, a Broadcom BCM4306, was attempting to use the b43legacy drivers, which I understand to be the native driver for this card, but would get all sorts of strange errors in 'dmesg', and would never get a solid connection.
After fiddling with this for 2 days, and reading countless troubleshooting guides, I finally gave up and decided to get it working with ndiswrapper. Everything worked perfect, except I can only get it to work if I first load b43legacy, then load ndiswrapper, then unload b43legacy. If I blacklist b43legacy, and just load ndiswrapper, iwconfig does not report a wlan0.
I ran across this posting, and decided to try this, but it also did not work. Plus, with this file in place, any attempt to use modprobe would complain about every line of that file.
Laptop with Nvidia integrated GO 6100. Now stuck in low graphics mode.
Uninstall/reinstall ENVY. No joy.
"Hardware Drivers" reports that Nvidia drivers version 173 are activated at the moment, but not in use. Got the same report from the 185s. 'nvidia-xconfig' produced no results.
Not sure where to go from here. Please assist.
On a positive note, my onboard Broadcom wireless is working without ndiswrapper.

Complete n00b here. I am running openSUSE 11.3 and trying to load drivers for a network card. When I try to make install, I am getting this error:

How do I install the kernel-devel?
How to load the driver for this SAS+SATA controller during install, I tried loading the supplied 5.0.5 driver from LSI but it appears that the options in the provided list do not provide actual support for the 5.0.7 release. Anyone having luck with the 9280 controller. I checked kernel.org and saw that supports is getting added for the upstream release of the kernel but wonder if anyone was able to workout a patch for the present Debian kernel in order to install the driver as the OS loads.

Is there a way I can slip in the drivers via USB or some other method so I can do a netinst of Debian on this new system?

I download the latest Fedora live disc to try it out for a little while. I decided to install it to my hard drive to have both Ubuntu and Fedora. I went through the process and had it compress Ubuntu (I guess it moved the files together but I'm new to this so I can't be sure.) Now when I have the startup screen to pick either Fedora or Ubuntu, Fedora works properly but Ubuntu gives me Error 13. It can't find the kernel. I went into the command line and went to where I knew Ubuntu was saved (hd0,0 and Fedora is hd0,2) and ran cat /etc/issue to check that it was there (read somewhere online to do that) and it returned with: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS

I think all I have to do is edit the pre-boot options or something, as they are way different looking than Fedora's and I think they may just be insufficient.
When I had a wubi install(after I restarted, logged in, etc.) a little icon appeared in the top right-hand corner of the screen informing me of an nvidia driver update, which was required to run compiz desktop effects. Now I have ubuntu installed on an actual hard drive(wubi was deleted beforehand) and I get no such icon. So I'm wondering how to update my drivers. BTW I have a 9500GT
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have been using Linux for over a month and have gone through several books on it. My weak point in linux is system internals and the kernel, (which I am reading up on now).

I've been trying to install all the drivers for my laptop that I recently installed Ubuntu on and I've been having trouble installing the driver for my webcam.
I followed the instructions on Ubuntu Documentation > Community Documentation > Ov51x (sorry but I can't post links) but I'm having trouble with preparing the installation files with the "make" command.

I'm reasonably new to Linux and very new to Ubuntu . I've just installed 9.10 as a dual boot on a Windows XP Pro Dell Inspiron 9200. I have a Samsung CLP-315 that I need to configure first as a local printer then as a wireless network printer. I found the software (.bin file) on the Samsung site and downloaded it but that's as far as I got. Can I use any of the GUI package managers or do I need to use Terminal and command line syntax? Here's the real question "what is the syntax for installing software/drivers?"
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've got an old Gateway desktop machine that a friend gave me, but any time I try to do something in a window-based environment like GNOME or KDE, the system locks up. I'm under the impression that this is a driver issue since the ethernet and video are integrated on the motherboard and neither works appropriately.
I cracked the case and got the number for the motherboard, which is: 4000811. From here I'm not quite sure what to do to make sure I've got the right drivers for the motherboard in place and could use some I'm on 10.04 server and ONLY have access to a command line.

I have a Mobility Radeon HD 5470 graphics card.
Three times so far I have had to re-install ubuntu because I installed an updated or new Nvidia graphics driver for my GeForce FX 5200 The first time, using Natty Narwhal, I installed an updated graphics driver, and upon reboot, I was presented with a blank screen that did nothing. Being a first-time Ubuntu user, I assumed it was me, or a bug in the new release. So I burnt a Lucid Lynx cd on another pc, and installed that instead. Same problem when I installed a new graphics driver, again via Admin>>Hardware Drivers. Reboot yielded a blank screen. Booted from cd again, as I had no files yet to worry about, and everything seemed to be fine, providing I stayed away from that tempting hardware drivers button.
I then accidentally installed a new driver when installing the dependencies(via terminal) for OGRE (Object-Oriented Graphics Rendering Engine) This time, my terminal froze, Firefox wouldn't boot, and a reboot yielded a blinking, blank login screen that did not do anything. Obviously, I'd like to have a graphics driver, as currently I can't run anything that needs 3d acceleration (Games, 3d simulations, even Desktop effects), but it's not absolutely necessary. So if nobody can suggest a fix, short of a new computer, new graphics card etc, can anybody suggest a way that I can stop myself accidentally installing anything driver-ish? The driver worked fine on windowsXP, but there's two reasons I'm not going back to that: a) I hate it. Hate, hate, hate.b) I've lost the activation key that came with computer, so I can't reinstall.
Further detail can be provided on request. Computer is Dell Dimension 2400, 256Mb RAM, Hard drive is almost empty. Old and slow, but I like it.
Now I installed Opensuse on my system which already had Ubuntu 10.04 and Windows 7 on it. Whilst Opensuse's replacement Grub correctly identified Windows as an alternative system it did not do the same for Ubuntu. I've been tinkering around in menu.lst (after taking back ups) and I can't ever get Ubuntu running - I either get a Grub error 15 (file not found) or error 17 (unable to read partition). By booting on a live CD I can see that all the information is still there, I just can't for the life of me figure out how to get to it from Grub! Did Opensuse move the partitions around during install?
