[Bug 1362848] Re: ubuntu 14.04 after install nvidia binary driver 331.89 black screen and freeze
Hello everybody! As many others users, I get a black screen when I try to switch on the nvidia card. I am just a user, therefore I just give my feedback. I use nvidia-prime and the nvidia drivers coming from the ppa xorg-edgers ppa. I use also prime-indicator for quickly switch between the nvidia (GTX880M) and the intel card and my login manager is lightdm. First comment, for me the black screen issue doesn't comes from the driver but of nvidia-prime. My first suggestion to solve the black screen. Using the the root privilege edit the file /sbin/prime-offload and just replace the first line #!/bin/sh by #!/bin/bash. Now, you can use the command: prime-select nvidia (or intel) and reboot your laptop. Normally, now you can switch between the two cards but the quick switch of prime-indicator doesn't work. For the next step, I don't have a real solution but just a workaround: With the root privilege edit the files /usr/lib/primeindicator/igpuon and /usr/lib/primeindicator/dgpuon and just before sync insert this line: service lightdm restart So you get this for the file igpuon: prime-select intel service lightdm restart sync And you get this for the file igpuon: prime-select nvidia service lightdm restart sync I hope that this feed-back will be helpful to other people. ++ Kirby -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1362848 Title: ubuntu 14.04 after install nvidia binary driver 331.89 black screen and freeze To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-331/+bug/1362848/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1377653] Re: HDMI sound output not detected / NVIDIA optimus laptop
Hello, I don't know if my message can help somebody, but i have a similar problem with my laptop (MSI GT60 2PE dominator 3K). I don't have found a solution and I am not able to explain the real problem... However I have a workaround. My laptop use a dual boot with Ubuntu 14.04 and Windows 8.1 and I have an optimus configuration for my video card (Intel/NVIDIA) First I will start by explain the procedure to reproduce the bug. At the begining, I am on linux with my NVIDIA card activated. If I connect an hdmi cable, there is no problem. I just need to select the hdmi audio device with Pulseaudio. However the video and the sound works fine with the hdmi output! Now I remove the hdmi cable and I shutdown my computer. I reboot now using Windows 8.1 (without HDMI cable!!) I reboot again on ubuntu. But now, if I connect again the HDMI cable, the video works but there is no sound. The audio device is not detected. I can switch on the intel card and come back on the NVIDIA but it the same. I can reinstall the nvidia driver, reinstall pulseaudio, reboot But nothing works!! The hdmi audio device has disapeared!!! The only one solution is to reboot on windows 8.1. I connect the hdmi cable, I check the sound works (on windows) and I shutdown the computer. Now if i reboot on linux the audio device is back!!! :) This is just a workaround, but it is not a solution... :( -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1377653 Title: HDMI sound output not detected / NVIDIA optimus laptop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/1377653/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
