Ubuntu Installation :: Clean Install Of Karmic - Monitor Out Of Range?

Jan 30, 2010

I've just installed Karmic and get an Out Of Range message on my monitor when starting.I had to use the alternate install in order to get Karmic on there in the first place.I have an Nvidia GeForce 7600 GS, and a BenQ FP767-12 TFT.

Output of lspci;01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G73 [GeForce 7600 GS] (rev a2)Not sure how to get my xorg.conf as I can only get to a shell. Here are (what I think are) the important bits;

Code:

Fedora Installation :: Cannot Install Core 10 Monitor Out Of Range?

Jan 15, 2009

I cannot install Fedora core 10. It boots up and it gets to the Fedora 10 loading screen. After that it complains my monitor is out of Range and that's as far as I can go. I had originally thought I could get to some text install mode, but I don't make it far enough to do that.

Ubuntu :: Clean Install After Several Attempts At Upgrading From Karmic Failed?

May 30, 2010

I installed Lucid (clean install after several attempts at upgrading from Karmic failed), and I have an Intel 8xx video card. I was able to get Lucid installed by adding "xforcevesa" into the command line at startup. Now I would like to try changing my computer away from Vesa and seeing if I can try to get the i915 driver working.

That being said, I cannot figure out where to go to change my kernel boot configurations. Every tutorial I've found refers me to /boot/grub/menu.lst which I cannot find. Ever since I moved from Karmic to Lucid, I've regretted it as it seems like all the How-To documentation is no longer valid, everything has been changed and moved around.

I don't know why it is dumping me onto Vesa, or why my stupid driver was blacklisted; everything was working fine under Hardy, Jaunty, and Karmic. Why problems now? Does anyone know how I can get into my boot setings and replace "xforcevesa" with something that will make the intel driver work?

Hardware :: ATI Driver Install / Monitor Out-of-range

Jun 15, 2009

I have tried installing the ATi drivers via the 1-click install process, however when I get to init 3 and try to run sax2 (sax2 -r -m 0=fglrx) my monitor just goes out of range. I have tried this in both OpenSuSE 11.1 and 11.0 - both the same. I have tried running sax2 with the -l switch for low resolution - no change. I have also tried the switch "--vesa 0:800x600@60" and "--vesa 0:1024x768@60" which are known resolutions/requencies that this monitor supports (the latter is the native resolution) - no change.

I have tried another monitor but it's exactly the same. My video card is an ATi Radeon HD2600AGP and is correctly identified by OpenSuSE, and displays video fine using the default driver.

Ubuntu Installation :: Updated To 10.04 And Now Monitor Frequency Is Out Of Range

May 1, 2010

I just updated my Wubi install of 9.10 to 10.04 last night. Everything went well until it required me to reboot the computer. I rebooted, loaded Ubuntu from the startup list, and then the screen went blank and I got "H.V. frequency over range" on the monitor.

I can load the GRUB options, but recovery mode using the most recent kernel does not work. I am entirely unexperienced with using the terminal and command prompt options.

Here's what I have attempted so far:

$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg this did not do anything, the command was not recognized

$sudo nano xorg.config I don't even know what to do when I get to this screen

and I am about to try $ sudo displayconfig-gtk

I have an ATI Radeon 9100 IGP card

Ubuntu Installation :: Can Not Run Live Cd Monitor Input Out Of Range?

Nov 7, 2010

this has happened with a few different attempts of ubuntu based distros lately ... i try to boot a live cd it gets to where it starts loading and the monitor pops off and says input out of range ... im aware that this is a known bug with xorg choosing either the wrong resolution or refresh rate ... but what the heck are we supposed to do , i can't get far enough into the boot process that i can open a terminal and try to bypass xorg ... so will all future distributions of ubuntu just be out of the question for me ? if you ask me what needs to be done is make the installer ASK what resolution you want to attempt to boot at .... similar to what puppy does

Debian Installation :: Monitor Out Of Sync Range?

Jan 18, 2010

My last Linux install was SUSE 6 on an early ISA based Pentium clone. I'm used to Unix / bash from OS X, MinGW, QNX & BeOS... none of these rely heavily on X. But I'm thinking that Linux is so popular, I'm doing a lot of my Windows stuff under MinGW, why not just stick Linux on and be done with it.So I've polled the various distros, I'm a power-user / dev so Ubuntu doesn't seem like me, and I'm not familiar enough with Linux to go Gentoo just yet, but the way I slim Windows and OS X installs down to just what I need. I love apt-get and like FreeBSD installs I've seen, but want some Linux kernel goodness for my self, so I have chosen Debian.

I grabbed the amd64 build of lenny DVD 1, partitioned up and installed a bare system that I can apt-get the bits I want later.Here's the problem... When the install completes rebooting sends the graphical login to a frequency my old Hanns-G TFT can't handle.I can Ctrl-Alt-F1 back to the terminal or boot in single user mode, and everything seems to be good until you go GUI.Here's what I've tried.

I've renamed /etc/X11/xorg.conf to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.oldI ran dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorgI've reinstalled using both simple GUI and Expert GUI using both kernelsI've tried adding nvidia-* packages with apt-get and aptitudeI remember there used to be a frequency tuner app for SUSE 6 and XFree86, but it seems that sort of thing is depreciated in modern Linux.Info? My GFX card is an nvidia GT 220, the motherboard is an ASUS P5QL Pro, the Monitor (Hanns-G) is attached via RGB HD-15 D-Sub (sadly that's all I have access to right now) and it's native resolution is 1280x1024 4:3 @ 60Hz, but in heXPee it will sync at that resolution at 60, 70, 72 or 75Hz, though it does get fuzzy at 75Hz.I'm fairly certain that X is working, just not at a frequency my screen can display... how can I fix this from single user, or regular bash terminal?

---edit--- Forgot to mention I ran dpkg-reconfigure on the XServer. :s It didn't offer video drivers, only to change from gb 105 keyboard layout and ps/2 mouse. I set the META key to the logo key while I was there, but it wasn't really helpful in any other way.

Ubuntu Installation :: 2ond Monitor Does Not Detect - Shows Out Or Range

Feb 15, 2011

My brother got a new 120hz monitor, but can only get the old one to work. If he boots up with both of them connected in windows xp they work fine, but in Ubuntu 10 only the old one works. If he tries to detect the monitor in Display Preferences, nothing happens. The old monitor is connected to vga output (lcd with vga only) the new monitor is connected to dvi with a dual-link dvi cable. We know the graphics cards cannot provide 120hz, for now we run the monitor at 60hz until he upgrades the rest of the pc (sandy bridge i guess).The 120hz monitor worked fine until he changed graphics card from a ATI radeon 9200 to a geforce 3 ti 500.

He has tried

sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg

and detect monitor in Display Preferences but no dice. Could he try restricted drivers?

System specs:

Ubuntu 10.04 32bit
athlon xp 1700mhz
1GB ram
ati radeon 9200
geforce 3 ti 500
lg w2363d

I am running an AMD Athlon 64 with an NVIDIA 6600 video built into the motherboard (PC Chips). My monitor is a 19" LCD with a standard VGA connector.

Fedora Installation :: Monitor Setting Caused Out Of Range

May 12, 2009

I think the settings in /etc/X11/xconf.org are wrong. I do know what the settings should be and have SSH access, (root plus password). Being new to linux I cannot figure out how to save the file after editing. I have been using: vi /etc/X11/xconfig.org to get to the file, but haven't been able to save the file.

the edit and save commands I need, I hate to do an entire install since this is about my 6th install.

Ubuntu Installation :: No Longer Use Monitor "out Of Range" After New Update

Jan 5, 2011

I am using an external monitor for my laptop to run Ubuntu with. I just updated Ubuntu today, but when it is about to reach the Ubuntu login screen, then the monitor says "out of range." Now, Ubuntu boots up into the GUI if I unplug my monitor and use my laptop screen, but I prefer to use the external display. I have tried all of the suggestions from my search results in Google. I did Ctrl + Alt + +, but nothing happens. I did Ctrl + Alt + -, but nothing happens.

I used Ctrl + Alt + F2 to get into a terminal to run the command: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, but nothing happens. I believe there are supposed to be options to change the settings, but it does not even give me any. I tried to edit /etc/usplash.conf and /nano/etc/usplash.conf, but they do not exist. My monitor is a Westinghouse 22" LCD with resolution 1680x1050. It has been working for the past few months until I updated it today.

General :: Getting "Out Of Range" Msg On Monitor When Trying To Run/install From LiveCD

Jul 20, 2010

I have a multi-distro LiveCD that I am trying to run and/or install on my desktop computer. I have attempted to run/install Fedora 12, openSuse 11.2 , and Mandriva ONE 2010.0. Whether running LiveCD or installing, just after it shows the bar "Loading Kernel...", the monitor goes blank and the "Out of Range" message appears. I have adjusted the resolution to every setting listed (from 800x600 all the way to 1600x1200) with no change in the outcome.

I have an MSI KA780G motherboard with ATI Radeon HD3200 integrated graphics, and a Westinghouse L2610NW 26" LCD monitor with a 1920x1200 native resolution. Can anyone give me my first step that I should try to make this work? I have seen other threads mentioning this error, but they reference the error after installation, and I can't even get that far!

Ubuntu :: Monitor Frequency Out Of Range - 10.04

Oct 16, 2010

I've recently reinstalled a computer with 10.04 for my parents to use, and it worked fine at mine, but after transporting it to theirs and hooking it up to their existing monitor it doesn't seem to work anymore!Well, it boots and I hear it login but I don't get a splash screen and at some point between the bios and the login sound it comes up with Frequency out of Range. On the warning message it displays a frequency of "72.9 kHz / 90.2 Hz" but in the monitor settings its reporting that its operating at horizontal 64,0 kHz and vertical 60.0 Hz. I also don't get any splash screen when starting up, just a flashing _ before the monitor stops things

What I can do however is drop into a the tty console (alt+ctrl+1) and login to the shell but don't really know what things to change from there.Having googled things a bit I've found references to xorg.conf but there's no such thing on my system so I can't edit that to fix this. Likewise I also have found references to fiddling with grub to get into the recovery, but grub doesn't even appear when I boot and I don't know what to press to get it to drop into its menu...

This is really urgent as I need to go home tomorrow at the latest and I want to get my parents system working before then. I also have no spare monitors here and I didn't think to bring with me a liveCD to fiddle with things (only a UNR netbook which I'm posting this from), so the console is the only access I have to the machine.Some specs: Ubuntu 10.04. ATi Radeon 9100 IGP, no proprietary drivers are installed. The monitor is an old CRT that still works beautifully and whose replacement is not an option.

Ubuntu :: Monitor Input Signal Out Of Range / Fix It?

Nov 28, 2010

I basically destroyed my laptop a couple of years ago. Windows XP wouldn't even start but it didn't come with an installation disk. I tried recovering it but it just died. So a few months ago I put a box of thing on top of it which broke the screen! I was going to chuck it out until I stumbled upon a page which told you you could use it as a web server.

I decided to use it to host my website. I installed ubuntu without a problem however it wasn't until I was about to start it up I found out it was against BT's terms and conditions!! So since I installed ubuntu I thought I might as well make use of it and use it to render my files. When I went to turn it on for the second time and plugged it into the monitor it said input signal out of range!

I can see the login screen but I can't move the mouse or anything. I can't access the terminal, how can fix this?

Ubuntu Servers :: 11.04 - Out Of Range Error On Monitor

May 7, 2011

I just installed Ubuntu server on one of my computers, but when I boot up the screen goes blank and the monitor gives me an 'Out of Range' error.

Monitor:

LCD
Recommended Resolution is 1280x1024

I have also tried it on another monitor with a recommended resolution of 1920x1080, This also gave me an OOR error. Ubuntu Server version 11.04

Hardware :: Monitor States Out Of Range?

I have recently got the Linux bible 2010 and it came with a cd and dvd containing multiple distro's of linux. I have tried them all with the same problem. Everything until the actual GUI desktop shows up from the live disks as well as an actual debian install, when I get to the desktop however out of range shows up. I have a video card hooked up, figured that might be the problem, it was not. I tried the on-board video and it also did the same thing. I also tried a different monitor, which did not work.

Ubuntu Installation :: After 11.04 Install - Wireless Range Worse

May 2, 2011

My only unhappiness with 11.04, after I installed in on 4/28 on my Eee PC 1000H (dual booting with Windows XP), is that the range of wireless reception in my house, from exactly the same spot as before, has worsened considerably. No problem when running Windows (which I'd rather not do, of course). Could the upgrade have installed a new driver for the wireless hardware that isn't as good as the previous one?
