Public bug reported: since 12.10 i'we experienced alot of gfx problems My computer is the ASUS ul30vt (64bit) with 2 gfx cards. one nvidia g210m and one onboard intel.
- gfx is being run by onboard intel graphic card, cannot turn on/install nvidia driver for g210m - when able to update headers i got this error when loged on: Could not apply the stored configuration for the monitor none of the selected modes were compatible with the possible modes: Trying modes for CRTC 63 CRTC 63: trying mode 640x480@60Hz with output at 1366x768@60Hz (pass 0) CRTC 63: trying mode 640x480@60Hz with output at 1366x768@60Hz (pass 1) Trying modes for CRTC 64 CRTC 64: trying mode 640x480@60Hz with output at 1366x768@60Hz (pass 0) CRTC 64: trying mode 640x480@60Hz with output at 1366x768@60Hz (pass 1) The onboard display setup is bad, so i try to install nvidia-current, nvidia-common, nvidia-settings. When i run the "nvidia-settings" i get promted with this error: "You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server." ... Ive got onboard gfx working now via the Recovery Mode! but i still can't install nvidia gfx driver, so im stuck with gfx bug, slow loading/bootup, and bad screen destop resolutions.
