Sound and Vision - Problems with my computer speakers and video drivers
Hello everyone, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GYEOlxcirX0 I'm having two technical issues trying to get Debian (Jessie) set up running on my Lenovo T430 laptop, and I wanted to ask if someone would be able to help me out with either. 1. I'd like to upgrade my video drivers (for playing some games on Steam). I've got an NVIDIA GF108M (NVS 5400M) and tried to run # aptitude install lib-gl1-nvidia-glx:i386 (Having previously set up i386 architecture) And, after restarting my computer, my OS would not load. I ended up reformatting and reinstalling everything. Needless to say (but said anyway), I'm a little gun-shy about trying that again. Is there a better way to try and update my video drivers? 2. As part of the whole reformat and reinstall, my computer is no longer playing anything on its embedded speakers. The headphone jack works just fine, it's just the embedded speakers. This was also a problem when I installed (from CD) to Wheezy. Looking at documentation online, there seems to be a lot of reference to ALSA, but AFAIK that seems to have been depreciated for Jessie (and the alsa_base.conf file is not present in /etc/modprobe.d/). Does anyone have any recommendations? Thank you for your help, Paul -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Does anyone have any recommendations? Thank you for your help, Paul You didn't get into the computer speakers, but I recommend one of two solutions for computer speakers: the best is to find some good hi-fi speakers--ones made for record/cd playing in a living room-- and an amplifier or receiver, and push your computer sound thru that. The next best thing, but quite a ways down the list, is a Logitech setup. The Logitech system consists of a sub-woofer that you put under your table or desk, and two satellite speakers that can sit on the computer table or hang on the wall. This system sounds quite good, altho IO found that the bass is exagerated it you pur the sub-woofer up against the wall. I wound up putting an octave- band equalizer between the computer and the Logitech system. Those little amplified speakers that sell for almost nothing are pure junk. If you have any, throw them out! BTW: Yard sales/garage sales always seem to have hi-fi amps and receivers for practically nothing, but it's tough to find decent hi-fi speakers. If you do find speaker cabinets, take off the front grille and see that the surround on the main speaker is not torn up. If it is, don't buy it! Personally, I'm not a fan of bookshelf speakers. I like to see a cabinet about 14 wide by 12 deep by 2 feet high, or thereabouts. --doug -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Multiple Video Drivers
Had my old 32-bit configuration lilo boot-selectable between Nouveau and Nvidia drivers using nomodeset command. An init script detected presence or absence of nomodeset, and exchanged xorg.conf files, was set to be run before any Xorg. My new 64bit has the defaulted Nouveau which is just fine for most things. Will not run flightgear. Nvidia's driver, even the legacy version, will run it. The new installation is running systemd (without a hitch by the way). Also, there is no such animal as xorg.conf, either in /etc/X11 or /usr/share/X11. So how would I, after dkms the Nvidia legacy driver, set up as I had before. (I do not simply default to Nvidia because (long-long-standing bug) it messes up the consoles rendering them unusable (KDE Konsole windows not effected). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

(I do not simply default to Nvidia because (long-long-standing bug) it messes up the consoles rendering them unusable (KDE Konsole windows not effected). xorg.conf is now an optional file. If it doesn't exist, the x server will auto-detect everything it needs (udev, xinput and so on make this easier). There is a caveat to this, though; when an Nvidia card is detected, the nouveau driver will be the preferred auto-detect driver (even if you have the nvidia driver installed). Now, xorg.conf is optional, not obsolete, so you can still have an xorg.conf file and it can be as big or as small as fits your needs. You can re-use the xorg.conf files from your 32-bit install and they should Just Work™. Alternatively, if you want to let Xorg continue to auto-detect everything, but *just* override its idea of which driver to use, your xorg.conf can be as minimal as: Section Device Identifier My Nvidia Card Driver nvidia VendorName NVIDIA Corporation #Option NoLogo true #Option ...

Re: jessie and new asus with i7 and gtx850m video drivers
Hi jessie user, Is it an option to try out the current stable release (Debian wheezy) and see if you're at least able to function with that? Or have you tried that already? It's not unheard of for stability to take a step backwards for a while on the testing and unstable branches for a while until the bugs get fixed. -- Devrin Talen dc...@cornell.edu -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Re: AMD/ATI video drivers in Squeeze
32-bit PAE kernels only enable access to more RAM than 3.75GB, while 64-bit kernels can use a 64-bit bus for all the IO work. So since you seemingly are not comfortable with the FLOSS driver's 3D acceleration, it might be, that for your needs, 64-bit will be faster. The driver not only need to fit to your graphics, but also to the version of X. If you download a driver from ATI you need to take care that it fit to the used version of X. If you get a black screen, warnings and errors could be found in the log file /var/log/Xorg.0.log . Would you use 2.6 kernel headers, to build modules for a 3.5 kernel? Some stuff is compiled inside the kernel, other stuff can be loaded if needed, but those modules are quasi part of the kernel, they're in /lib/modules/KERNEL_VERSION . It's possible to set up Linux in a way, that it will build modules automatically after a kernel upgrade. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Re: Dell XPS L502x intel-nvidia video drivers
¡Hola buen día! Me resultó infructuoso el habilitar debian squeeze en la XPS L502x, esto debido a que efectivamente hay que actualizar medio Debian, incluyendo Kernel 3.1.x y dependencias, Xorg, etc. para hacerlo funcionar, lo que me deja un sistema altamente combinado. En este caso opté por debian sid en su variante aptosid, la cual me da un buen rendimeinto y al no ser un servidor sino una laptop me parece suficiente, lo he probado por algunos días y su velocidad me sorprende. Gracias por su aporte y que brille la luz dentro de ustedes. Saludos Pablo -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-spanish-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Dell XPS L502x intel-nvidia video drivers
Hola a todos los de la lista, les deseo un buen día y acudo a ustedes nuevamente para ver si me pueden dar una idea. Acabo de adquirir un equipo Dell XPS L502x con tarjetas de video dual intel y nvida (gt540m). El problema radica en la configuración de los drivers de video bajo Debian squeeze. Necesito que me funcione cualquier tarjeta de video, por el momento puedo vivir sin la nvidia, mas leyendo, indican que la intel, no está aún soportada por Linux, por eso estoy trabajando con el driver VESA que es muy lento. Bajé el driver de Nvidia, configuré para utilizarla, más primeramente no arrancó, indicó un problema con el adaptador primario, después de modificar con BusID el archivo xorg.conf para que lograra cargar el driver de nvidia, esto lo hizo más no me muestra video ni error alguno, solo un cursor sin parpadear en la terminal, sigo teniendo FB en las terminales 1 a la 6. anexo el archivo xorg.conf para ver si me pueden dar un poco de luz en el camino, realmente quisiera activar uno de los controladores, actualicé el kernel al 2.6.39 desde backports para que funcione el manejo de las teclas de función del teclado, con el 2.6.32 la máquina se notaba inestable, se ralentizaba en ocasiones. Agradezco de antemano su gran apoyo.

You don't have to use dpkg/apt to install packages. You can compile from source manually. You don't have to configure your interfaces using /etc/network/interfaces. You can write your own init scripts for starting interfaces. You don't have to use update-alternatives to change system alternatives, you can manually remove and create new symlinks, or even copy the executables. Don't interpret the above as advice.

Re: Installing Video Drivers Manually

My experience is more like 'a walk in the park' to install it. Very easy, even if rollbacks are needed, eg. at the moment when 195.x doesn't work too well with testing. Simply reinstalled 190.x and that was it. What issues? I'm using it on unstable and testing without any problems. In debian we use module-assistant to install things such as this. I used to do it that way, too. But if you need fixes for stuff (eg. KDE problems), the upstream driver releases are what come out first. It really depends.

Re: Avoiding install of ALL X video drivers
You can uninstall xserver-xorg-video-all and all unused drivers as long as you keep at least one package that provides xserver-xorg-video-2. The same holds for xserver-xorg-input-all and the individual input drivers. i'd rather not install in the first place, which is what i'm trying now. On a new system, without X yet, i tried: # apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-radeon xserver-xorg-input-mouse xserver-xorg-input-kbd It installs a total of 86 packages (129MB), mostly libs, xserver-common, -xorg-core, fonts... If i try: # apt-get install xserver-xorg It'll go up to 117 packages (137MB), with ALL the i/o drivers as well... Not a big difference, but they're mostly useless packages and if you have an old pc with a small disk... ;) Having lspci installed, couldn't xerver-xorg install dummy packages, then run a script to find out which drivers it needs, and then install only those?

Re: Installing xorg without all those video drivers
I'd like to install xorg, but only with the video drivers that I need. I'm doing a net install. I do it by trial and error, but usually I start from the things I know I need for sure. xserver-xorg-video-intel (replace with your driver) xserver-xorg-vesa (just for backup) xserver-xorg-input-kbd xserver-xorg-input-mouse Spice with some xfonts: xfonts-100dpi xfonts-75dpi (probably don't need those as I run X with 100 dpi) xfonts-base xfonts-terminus (my favorite :) Don't forget to turn off recommends first (at least temporary). I managed to do this with some difficulty, but your choice of packages is basically right. I used aptitude, as suggested by Doug (see previous posting), and switched recommends off. Aptitude is one of the great things about Etch. The difficult part was installing the proprietary ATI drivers for my ATI X1950 GT card. The debian kernel driver does not support this and I needed to download the latest driver from ATI and turn it into a .deb. It involved installing quite a few development packages. All works fine now. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Installing xorg without all those video drivers
I'd like to install xorg, but only with the video drivers that I need. I'm doing a net install. A query on the Debian IRC yielded painfully, without using the meta package that pulls them in.

Here's how I do it: First, I use aptitude interactively. If you haven't used aptitude before, then that's a separate project to do first. Aptitude gives you a curses interface similar to but more powerful than dselect. Aptitude keeps track of which packages were installed by you and which were installed to meet dependencies. So far, similiar to apt-get. However, when you remove a package that you installed, aptitude will remove anything that then doesn't have anything depending on it that was marked as automatic. Then, I go to the xorg meta-package. I scroll down to the things it depends on and I select them manually, and I dig down into the dependancies and adjust things. For example, somewhere there a package will depend on _either_ an -all package or a device-specific package. Left on its own, it will pull in the -all whereas I can mark the device spcific package for manual and deselect the -all. It sounds more complicated than it is. I'm comfortable with aptitude so its not. Doug. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

nVidia Video Drivers Need Reinstalled After Reboot

Re: Next Challenge - nVidia Video Drivers
I managed to manually compile the drivers. Now, when I go to set up my video card, I am faced with a large list of nVidia cards to choose from. Trouble is, none of them specifically say GeForce 5600 FX. So the question to anyone here who also uses this card... Which one do I select from the list? Is this considered a GeForce-2, or a GeForce-3 (Rev. 1, 2, or 3), or what? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Nvidia's driver is what they call 'unified,' they built all their cards to use the same driver. That way it's much simpler for them to maintain drivers.

The problem can be seen by using the following two commands: cat /proc/version gcc -v If you have installed from Knoppix, you will see that the versions of gcc are different. Unless you know how to change gcc to use version 2.9.x instead of 3.2, then you should recompile a kernel. I have the same set up as I installed debian using Knoppix. I downloaded the kernel-source-2.4.22 package and used the /boot/config-2.4.22-xfs file as a base configuration for the new kernel (I removed a lot of unneccessary stuff before I compiled). I created a new kernel deb using make-kpkg and installed it using dpkg. I rebooted and tried the NVidia install and it worked just fine. If you have any problems with any of this, just ask.

Is this considered a GeForce-2, or a GeForce-3 (Rev. 1, 2, or 3), or what? I am not sure I am with you, it sounds like you are doing things the older way. For XFree86 4.x you can use the command (ensure X is not running first): dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86 This will provide you with an ncurses menu to help you configure X. You should select XFree86 as your xserver and nvidia as your driver. You should not need to specify your exact card anywhere (unless you want to state it in the card description). Make sure that glx is loaded (has a star against it) and GLCore and DRI is not loaded. Most of the rest of the menu options are pretty straighforward... but ask if you are unsure. If you save the config at the end then you should just be able to 'startx' and get playing UT2003 Johnny. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Re: Next Challenge - nVidia Video Drivers
From: Scarletdown [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Today 03:38:30 I managed to manually compile the drivers. Now, when I go to set up my video card, I am faced with a large list of nVidia cards to choose from. Trouble is, none of them specifically say GeForce 5600 FX. So the question to anyone here who also uses this card... Which one do I select from the list? Is this considered a GeForce-2, or a GeForce-3 (Rev. 1, 2, or 3), or what? The Geforce 5600 FX is considered a Geforce FX, I guess you are making your XF86config-4 file, with Debconf? If you use the Nvidia driver it will know what card you have, as long as you use the right driver. The identifer in XF86config-4 really doesn't care what name you use. You could name it really anything, but the driver should be nvidia, and your BusID should be what is used on your motherboard. This is taken from my device section of my XF86config-4 file. Section Device Identifier Geforce fx 5600 ultra Driver nvidia BusID PCI:01:05:00 EndSection You might be able to leave off the BusID section, but in my case it would not recognize my card and kept giving me no screen found errors. Also I am glad you got your nvidia driver to compile, I ended up editing the Makefile in /usr/nv and adding the lines IGNORE_CC_MISMATCH at the top of the Makefile then running the script nvidia install script again. happy holidays; Rthoreau -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Re: Video Drivers
Hello. I have and S3 Virge card (Diamond Stealth 2000) and would like to know how to install the proper XF86 server/driver. And where I can locate it with apt-get. It depends which X you have. in stable, you'll have to use either SVGA server, or S3 (I'd use xserver-svga). In unstable, it's all xserver-common with s3 driver, I think. Or just run hte xf86config and it'll tell you which server you need, and you can then apt-get it. Andrei -- First there was Explorer... Then came Expedition. This summer Coming to a street near you..

For XFree86v4, I believe there's just the one driver. For v3, your options are either the SVGA or S3V drivers. I've got an older ViRGE VX S3 card on my desktop. Though the XFree86 docs say I should use the SVGA driver, I found some years ago that doing so would lock my system hard on the second initiation of X. That is, running two simultaneous displays, or running one display, terminating it, then starting another X session, would freeze the system. Weird bug.
