[Bug 1126002] Re: Ubuntu 12.10 Nvidia (Geforce G210m) Fail
Here is a little update on how i disabled intel card and fixed the bug
(wtith x / nvidia-settings) ...
This should be done from a terminal without a gui running so either do it via
1) recovery mode > terminal as root or 2) logout > alt+ctrl+f1
..if a sudo command isnt accepted run it as root with gksu (or gksudo)
1)Changed (downgrade) kernel to supported version (i do it using grub since my
linux-headers-3.7.0.7-generic is not supported by nvidia drivers yet)
2)Remove all existing nvidia drivers // using sudo apt-get purge
3)Disable Intel gfx in bios (on my asus ul30vt its done by changing IDE
CONFIGURATION to "compatible")
4)Install nvidia driver (i chose nvidia-current-updates, but any driver will do)
5)sudo update-alternatives –config gl_conf
6)sudo ldconfig
7)sudo update-initramfs -u
8)Configure your xorg.conf
9)sudo nvidia-xconfig
10)Reboot
And ubuntu will boot up with nvidia gfx running, showing a "NVIDIA
SPLASH SCREEN" just after userlogin!
So Dave Lentz, it could be done without bumblebee, although I must say it was a
bit harder than just reinstalling bumblebee.
The check i mentioned, was something like this:
("I'm not really sure what hardware check you're referring to and why it would
check the laptop vendor.")
//I do this by memory so it may not be 100% correct
enable: nvidia-current-updates
...

Unloading nvidia-current-updates
Imo it should be an option to disable the intel card totally via a
terminal command, to force the accept of the nvidia-xconfig since
everything works perfect the second the intelcard hardware isnt detected
by the system
:)

You cannot completely disable the intel card due to the nature of Optimus design.

Thanks for your reply Dave Lents Before ubuntu 12.10 i had Bumblebee installed, with glxgear(low fps) / 'optirun glxgear' (highfps) working. However i wish to only run my nvidia graphic card, and completly disable the onboard intel gfx, for improved performance and since my laptop battery isn't an issue. I also had some problems earlyer, while using bumblebee, where the nvidia-current got enabled/installed, only to be disabled straight after due to the fact that the hardware check fails cuz im on a "ASUStek computer" and the checker only knows DELL XPS and Lennovo computers with the Nvidia g210m. + The Bumblebee-gnome-extentsion-indicator also didnt work either So i ended up removing Bumblebee I know, the nvidia-card "only" driver was working correctly with onboard gfx disabled some time ago - This is what i am trying to re-establish instead of using bumblebee -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1126002 Title: Ubuntu 12.10 Nvidia (Geforce G210m) Fail To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1126002/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Marking Invalid as a bug because you should not attempt to install the nvidia driver directly on a hybrid/Optimus system. Purge any nvidia driver you've tried to install and follow the directions here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bumblebee If you still have questions, please use https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/ Thanks ** Summary changed: - Ubuntu 12.10 Nvidia (Gefore g210m) Faill + Ubuntu 12.10 Nvidia (Geforce G210m) Fail ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1126002 Title: Ubuntu 12.10 Nvidia (Geforce G210m) Fail To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1126002/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
