Hardware :: ATI Radeon 57xx Using HDMI Overscan (CentOS 5.5 X86_64)?

Feb 9, 2011

So, I need to use the HDMI out on my Radeon 57xx because the DVI input on my monitor is in use by another machine that has no other way to connect to it, and I won't swap cables around all the time. Of course, because someone somewhere decided that if it's plugged in to HDMI it must be a TV and have overscan issues I have a nice black box surrounding my screen image.

In Windows I can resolve this by opening CCC and changing the overdrive settings. Thus far I have yet to be able to get CCC to open and the only thing the console tool allows you to do is toggle overscan on and off, which doesn't seem to have any effect so far. Has anyone gotten this issue resolved? Do I need to focus on getting CCC working (which I probably won't use for anything else...) or is there a console command that can handle the job? Change to xorg.conf? Anything?

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Overscan - HTPC Connected To LCD HDTV Over HDMI?

Dec 12, 2010

I have an HTPC with an onboard ATI video chipset but for hardware acceleration's sake, I installed a GeForce 9500GT video card. Everything works quite well, except for the overscan issue. I've installed the latest nvidia binary drivers (manually) but I don't see any options in nvidia-settings to solve this overscan issue.

Here is my xorg.conf file:

Code:
# nvidia-xconfig: X configuration file generated by nvidia-xconfig
# nvidia-xconfig: version 260.19.21 (buildmeister@builder103.nvidia.com) Thu Nov 4 20:57:26 PDT 2010
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Layout0"
Screen 0 "Screen0"

[Code]...

I tried adding that ModeLine line myself (using xrandr and gtf) but that fails too. I've scoured the web and these forums, and I've seen some overscan issues reported but with no solution in sight.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Radeon X1200 HDMI Audio?

Apr 5, 2010

I want my computer to be used as a DVD/BD player, and as of recently it has rejected its windows install and refuses to reinstall. Ubuntu 9.10 installed without problem, but when I select the X1200 (hdmi) audio output via the top right icon no sound comes out. I've searched this topic and one theory was that if i ran ALSA mixer the x1200 audio might be muted by default; it was not muted. I've also been told to update my catalyst, but using synaptics packet manager to download the catalyst control center, when I run it I get the message no supported hardware found. Is there any way to get this to work, or am I stuck with my speakers/3.5mm jack?

Debian Hardware :: ATI Radeon HD 3200 HDMI Audio On Wheezy

May 6, 2014

I recently switched over one of my Ubuntu machines to Debian Wheezy. On the Ubuntu system I was able to get the HDMI audio working by adding radeon.audio=1 to grub. I've tried this on this system to no avail. The fglrx-legacy-driver causes underscan and I'd like to avoid it if possible for convenience.

Things I've tried:

fglrx-legacy-driver - Introduced underscan while not solving the problemradeon.audio=1 in grub boot line - No effectGoogling for several hours - There's a lot of topics about this, but most are old and irrelevant, and the ones that are current enough didn't solve my issue.Yelling at it - HDD light blinked a few times, no change

I have a Dell Optiplex GX280 with an ATI Radeon 3470 HDMI card. I'd like to install Ubuntu on this computer, and I'd like to use my Olevia HDTV as a monitor and use it as a media computer. I attach the tv to the computer via HDMI, and boot to the Ubuntu install disk - I'm presented with an 'Invalid Format' error message, and no video on the tv. Is there any way around this error so I can continue the install?

Debian Hardware :: Jessie - Radeon HDMI Audio Not Working On Kernels 3.12 And Up

Jun 15, 2014

I am running a small Debian Jessie installation on my Zotac Nano AD10 (based on AMD's E-350, Radeon 6310). I use it as an MPD server, it outputs to my receiver over HDMI.

Up until kernel 3.11 that works fine. My GRUB command line looks like this (default grub.cfg file):

Code: Select all$ grep radeon /etc/default/grub
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet elevator=noop radeon.audio=1 radeon.dpm=1"

Up till 3.11, this worked fine. The available outputs in alsamixer are unmuted [00]. Aplay reports this:

Code: Select all$ aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: Generic [HD-Audio Generic], device 3: HDMI 0 [HDMI 0]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 1: SB [HDA ATI SB], device 0: ALC892 Analog [ALC892 Analog]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

I also set the HDMI output as system-wide default:

Code: Select all$ cat /etc/asound.conf
pcm.!default {
      type plug
      slave {
      pcm "hw:0,3" # HDMI audio
      }
        }

Running speakertest on device 0,3 though, - no sound:

Code: Select all$ speaker-test --device plughw:0,3

speaker-test 1.0.27.2

Playback device is plughw:0,3
Stream parameters are 48000Hz, S16_LE, 1 channels
Using 16 octaves of pink noise
Rate set to 48000Hz (requested 48000Hz)
Buffer size range from 64 to 16384
Period size range from 32 to 8192
Using max buffer size 16384

[Code] ...

I've tried fixing this repeatedly (3.12, 3.13, 3.14) but everytime i find myself returning to 3.11 because that keeps working.... Some posts suggest running xrandr could get it working, but this is a headless installation, so I cannot use xrandr.

For reference, OpenELEC works on this same system (separate install), and they're up to 3.14 as well. Never had a problem with OpenELEC and the audio not working.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: ATI Radeon 4670 Only Offers Stereo Sound Through HDMI

Sep 9, 2010

I bought this Radeon 4670 [URL] to improve my video. Although the description on ATI-AMD webpage [URL] specifies that this card can output up to 7.1 audio through HDMI, Sound Controls only shows the stereo and off option. ATI Catalyst does not have any controls for audio. Is there a way to get 5.1 audio enabled? Using 10.04.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: HDMI Sound Not Working On ATI Sapphire Radeon HD 5450

Jun 22, 2011

I recently installed ubuntu 10.10 on HTPC, after having a few RAM and SATA issues everything seems to be working fine, The audio (using HDMI) does not work. Have PC connected using HDMI for video (and I am hoping for audio too, this card is made for this and it has been tested with other OS) however the audio does not work, although in the audio preferences it shows to be using the correct hardware. Testing for sound under sound preferences does not play anything, acts as it it was, but no sound, no error messages either. I went ahead and installed ATIs proprietary drivers in hopes that it would make the audio work, but not luck so far.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Catalyst X86_64 Driver For Radeon 4850 Install Failing?

May 2, 2011

I realize that Canonical is not responsible for the Catalyst driver, but I can't seem to operate outside of the Ubuntu Classic (no effects) mode for 64 bit Natty, and I was curius if anyone else had encountered or resolved this.

When I upgraded from 10.10 (I was using the fglrx package), xorg would immediately crash. I was able to reach the gdm screen only using recovery mode. I uninstalled the fglrx package, and now I can boot into Ubuntu Classic (no effects) mode only (no other desktop will work) using the open-source driver at no greater than 1280x1024.

When I try to re-install the catalyst driver using aptitude or Administration->Additional Drivers, the installation fails:

(jockey.log: WARNING: modinfo for module fglrx failed: ERROR: modinfo: could not find module fglrx)

Similarly, package generation from the AMD page fails:

Installation complete.
*** glibc detected *** ./setup.data/bin/x86_64/setup: double free or corruption (fasttop): 0x000000000259f630 ***

CentOS 5 Hardware :: Installing CentOS 5.4 X86_64 On Adaptec RAID 3405

Jan 13, 2010

My problem is that I'm trying to install CentOS 5.4 x86_64 DVD ISO on Supermicro X7SBI server with installed Adaptec RAID 3405 controller.

I created RAID 5 array and is working fine (adaptec status says Optimal) but I can't install CentOS to that array (1.5TB size).

Whenever I try to install with: linux dd

I'm asked for a driver, which I have downloaded from Adaptec site and extracted contents to USB drive (in installation found as /sba1) which has now a lot of IMG and some ISO files on it.

I try to load (I simplified names) RHEL5.img, CENTOS.img... with x64 names (one exact name: aacraid driverdisk-CentOS-x86_64.img) and I always get the error message: "No devices of the appropriate type were found on this driver disk"

This is going on for a week now and I can't find the right driver or something I'm doing wrong to get install done.

CentOS 5 :: Unable To Install Centos 5.5 X86_64 On Vmware Server 2.0.2?

Nov 6, 2010

I have an i5 Thinkpad running Windows 7 64-bit. VT is enabled in the BIOS. I have installed vmware server v 2.0.2 but am unable to install Centos 5.5 x86_64 as a guest OS. The steps that I followed are as follows:1. Created a new VM, specifying RHEL 5 64-bit as the intended guest OS (per vmware documentation - Centos is not available as a selection2. Downloaded all 8 iso files for Centos v5.5 64-bit3. Modified the CD/DVD drive to 'connect at power' and use an iso with the path pointing to the x86_64 iso 1 of 8When I power up the VM, the console window displays 'ISOLINUX 3.11 2005-09-02 Copyright (C) 1994-2005 H. Peter Anvin' and nothing else. The installation splash screen never appears. As a test, I downloaded the first of 7 iso files for the 32-bit version of Centos 5.5 and pointed the CD/DVD drive to that iso. In that case, the installation starts as expected. I would really like to get the 64-bit version installed and running.

CentOS 5 Hardware :: Digi Edgeport/8 With CentOS 5.3 X86_64

Aug 18, 2009

I'm trying to get a Digi Edgeport/8 working under x86_64 CentOS 5.3. This is a USB to serial conversion box that takes a single USB port and breaks it out into 8 DB-9 serial ports. We're running the 2.6.18-128.el5 x86_64.

This box has worked fine on many systems for us from RedHat 7.3 to Fedora Core 5 from everything back to the 2.4.20 kernel up to 2.6.16.16. On the CentOS box, in /boot/config-2.6.18-125.elf, the following is set:

CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_EDGEPORT=m
CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_EDGEPORT_TI=m

Which is all we've ever had to do in the past and plugging the box in to the system, it will auto-configure.

what I need to do to get this working in the CentOS 5.3 64-bit world??? Time is critical for this to get fixed!

CentOS 5 Networking :: How To Configure VPN On CentOS 5.4 X86_64

Dec 29, 2009

I am brand new to this forum! I have spent some time on other Linux forums but based on my usage of CentOS I figured that it would be best to come straight to the pros. I've been using CentOS for a while now, mostly as a web server. Actually I use it as the base and installed Parallels Plesk Control Panel.

Anyway I want to setup a VPN and so far I haven't found any real solid documentation on how to do that! Yes I could install DAG/RPM Forge but what I really want to know how to do it from scratch. What I mean by scratch is that I want to download the tar.gz package from openvpn.net and then build it as required. I don't know much about building or compiling a package so that is why I have come here for help! I am guessing that I need to compile openVPN with openSSL and probably a few other packages... I could use openSWAN but I don't want to.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Disable Overscan With ATI Drivers?

May 11, 2010

When I first installed Ubuntu, I installed the ATI drivers with Catalyst Control Center, too. I believe the next time I restarted my computer, it was overscanned. It had the 2 inch border around my display. It was terrible, and I wanted to stop using Ubuntu because I couldn't find a fix. I finally removed the drivers through the terminal (don't remember how) and the border was gone.

The problem is, I don't have any actual drivers for this card installed. It's a Radeon HD 4650. I was thinking of trying: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver

Would the be a way to remove overscan with that? Or is there a way with ATI's closed source drivers I had the first time? Ubuntu crashes sometimes and the screen goes all weird, which I'm pretty sure is from the video card. I also can't see the boot splash for Ubuntu when starting up the computer, which I've heard can be caused by your video card.

I'd like to have the drivers for my card, but not have to worry about the damn 2 inch overscan.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: The NVidia Overscan And Fixing It?

Jun 23, 2011

I have Googled. I have searched these forums and others. I have ripped my hair out in frustration. As many are aware, custom resolutions- "What the hell" by "that's just messed up" or "Jesus Christ" by "you've got to be kidding"- are very hard to set under the new "xorg.conf isn't really used" paradigm. This should not be. Many Ubuntu users are running the OS on displays with either nonstandard display resolutions or devices which overscan the display but do not offer a 1:1 pixel display setting- such as myself, on my 50" Samsung 1080p DLP television, connected via its HDMI port.

After more than a year trying to find a hard-and-fast process for fixing this overscan problem (note that I did not say "a hard-and-fast FIX for this problem"), I have decided to turn to the collective wisdom of the Ubuntu user community in an effort to put this issue to bed for good. To that end, I create this thread.

Recent research via the web has led me to believe that the problem lies in the X server not being aware of any sort of valid modeline for my- or your- nonstandard resolution. I am well-aware that each solution for each user will be different; if you're reading this, you're probably a geek like me in the first place, and your chops are more than sufficient to tackle both biting off this huge issue and chewing it.

My question to the community is this: How do I determine the correct modeline to add to xorg.conf, how do I make it available to the X server, what do I need to do to format the modeline in a valid way in xorg.conf (if necessary), and how do I make it appear in the list of valid resolutions when I run nvidia-settings (or whatever the command is)?

Keep in mind, I'm more interested in establishing the correct pipeline for fixing the problem and allowing arbitrary resolutions to the limit of the given device's capacity, rather than an exact solution for my particular hardware. In other words, I don't want an exact answer for my situation; what I'm looking for is a method for finding the proper solution given situations similar to mine.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: TV Showing Us As Projector - Remove Overscan?

Jul 25, 2010

There's several threads dealing with overscan, but I've got an interesting twist in my setup that (I believe) is putting a kink into the proposed solutions. I'm trying to set up a media center PC with Ubuntu 10.~. The motherboard has built-in ATI graphics (3300 series), and connects to my television (Panasonic capable of 1080i) via HDMI. As can be expected, the overscan makes the top and bottom bars nearly invisible (as well as a portion of the sides).

When I run the Catalyst Control Center, it informs me that the monitor is a projector, not a TV. Try as I might, I can't convince the thing it's attached to a TV. When I run "aticonfig --tv-info", I am informed that a TV is not connected.

One question I could ask, though: does it matter? The reason I'm asking is that I can't find the "Configuration" menu option in the CCC that all the other threads talk about. I know where the little black triangle menu is, but there's no "Configuration" item in it. There's also (as best as I can tell) no way of adjusting overscan for a digital projector.

Ubuntu Installation :: 10.10 - Catalyst Control Center (Overscan Adjustments)

Jan 4, 2011

I've got 10.10 up and running like a champ. Haven't done much in it, but all was well. After a little while I went in to turn the cool effects on, and it told me I needed a driver for my ATI card so I said go for it. It ended up putting Catalyst Control Center in for me. That's all fine and dandy except on the windows side I can get into an area that allows me to adjust overscan and turn it off (its a slider for under and overscan).

This version wont seem to let me do that, so now I'm stuck with either NOT a full screen, or no ability to have fun graphic effects. While your here, how can I change the data files which I think ubuntu refers to as your /home folder (documents pictures etc) to a different location? Windows7 and Ubuntu need to see the files in the same places so I don't have to have two working sets of files.
