Are you using a newer Ubuntu version now and an updated driver? ** Changed in: envyng-core (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/227687 Title: video mode goes to 640x480 @60hz To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/envyng-core/+bug/227687/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 227687] Re: video mode goes to 640x480 @60hz
i really need help with a similar issue. Im running ubuntu 9.04 and had everything just way i wanted as far as cosmetics go using compiz. but when i started trying to play fps games my graphics card wouldnt support the games so i downloaded envyng to see if there was a driver agailable, when i opened it there were x's over all the drivers (i assume saying that none of them would help) but i tried downloading the first one just to see if it would help and it caused my screen to just turn to lines. I ended up having to reinstall ubuntu and now if i enable 3d cube or any advanced appearance, my screen shrinks and the mouse is not where it would normally be, for instance if my mouse if resting over a link and i click, it will actually click a link about an inch farther down on the screen. This is very upsetting for me because i'd been working on it for a while to get it how i wanted it and now this one mistake seems to have perminatly screwed up my graphics card (which wasnt great in the first place but handled advanced compiz settings) is there any way of uninstaling the driver and restoring the card back to the way it was? i know this is a complicated post but i'd really appreciate any help. thanks. josh -- video mode goes to 640x480 @60hz https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/227687 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Moving bug to envyng-core. Not much of a KDE issue in my opinion. ** Changed in: envyng-core (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: kdebase-workspace => envyng-core Status: Incomplete => New -- video mode goes to 640x480 @60hz https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/227687 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to kdebase-workspace in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs

Harold, I'm using the envy Nvidia driver 96.?.? on one pc with Kubuntu and used to use the latest envy Nvidia driver on another pc but it bit the dust. The user Gerelle is actually me. I used my sister's launchpad account "Gerelle" to post the info about envy when she logged in on my desktop and I forgot to log back in with my user id "G.G.". -- video mode goes to 640x480 @60hz https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/227687 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to kdebase-workspace in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs

Whenever I have problems with my display I use the EnvyNG driver for Nvidia. EnvyNG is for Ubuntu 8.04/Kubuntu 8.04/Xubuntu 8.04/Edbuntu 8.04 A) How do I Install EnvyNG? 1) If you installed Envy or EnvyNG 1.1.0 (or lower), make sure you remove them by typing: sudo apt-get remove envy sudo apt-get remove envyng sudo rm -R /usr/share/envy 2) EnvyNG is available in Ubuntu's "universe" repository, therefore all you have to do is enable this repository. If you don't know how to do it, see Point E. 3) Install EnvyNG: if you use Ubuntu or Xubuntu (i.e. GNOME or XFCE) download and install EnvyNG-GTK. Open Terminal or Konsole and type: sudo apt-get install envyng-gtk OR if you use Kubuntu, install EnvyNG-QT (which contains the QT4 interface). Open Konsole and type: package: sudo apt-get install envyng-qt OR if you want to install only the textual interface just type: sudo apt-get install envyng-core 4) Launch EnvyNG's GUI (inside a Desktop Environment such as GNOME,KDE, etc.) by selecting it in the "Applications/System Tools" menu OR if you need to use EnvyNG's textual interface you will have to type: sudo envyng -t If you have doubts you can read EnvyNG's man page: man envyng B) Can I use EnvyNG if I had installed the Nvidia driver via Envy version 0.8.2 (or lower) or via the Nvidia installer? Yes, you can, but you will need to follow these steps: 1) Remove the older version of envyng (you can skip this step if you only used the Nvidia installer): sudo aptitude purge envyng sudo aptitude purge envy sudo rm -R /usr/share/envy 2) Download and install EnvyNG's deb package 3) Log out and press CTRL+ALT+F1 (so as to get out of the Desktop Environment, i.e. you'll see ONLY the command line) 4) Log in (if required) 5) Stop the Xserver by typing: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop OR (if you use Kubuntu) sudo /etc/init.d/kdm stop WARNING: if Ubuntu seems to hang on Ubuntu's splash screen you will have to press Alt+F1. (this usually happens on Kubuntu) 6) Uninstall the driver from NVIDIA's installer: cd path_to_the_nvidia_installer sudo sh name_of_the_nvidia_installer --uninstall 7) Then you can run EnvyNG and select the "Install" function. Run EnvyNG's textual installer by typing: sudo envyng -t NOTE: you will NOT need to repeat the whole process next time you want to install the Nvidia driver (you should be able to use EnvyNG's GUI) C) What happens if you are no longer able to access your Desktop Environment (because of a blank screen at boot)? Boot in RECOVERY MODE from the GRUB Menu (select it using your keyboard) almost as soon as you turn on your computer (it will take you to the command line). Then you will need to type: envyng --uninstall-all then simply type: reboot and boot as usual. On next reboot the Xserver should work fine (but you will use the open source driver) D) What happens if I upgrade Ubuntu to a newer release (e.g. from Ubuntu 8.04 to Ubuntu 8.10)? Nothing bad should happen, since EnvyNG is 100% compatible with Ubuntu. E) What shall I do to enable the required repositories on Ubuntu? You will have to enable Ubuntu's "universe" and "multiverse" repositories. Have a look at this page to see how you can do it (read where it says Enabling Extra Repositories on that page): Enabling Extra Repositories F) What happens if the kernel is upgraded (e.g. via system updates)? You won't have to do anything at all. DKMS will automatically install the module for your new kernel. NOTE: make sure that the kernel headers (linux-headers) for that kernel are also installed. G) Shall I uninstall the ATI/NVIDIA driver before I install a new version of the driver through EnvyNG? EnvyNG will do it for you. However if you want to uninstall the driver, nothing bad will happen ;) H) What happens when ATI or NVIDIA release a new driver? If you don't uninstall EnvyNG, you will receive the new release of the driver automatically with Ubuntu's updates. I will made the updates available after a while so as to have the time to test the new driver. Furthermore I work on this project in my spare time, therefore donations are welcome (see the Paypal button in the right sidebar of this page). -- video mode goes to 640x480 @60hz https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/227687 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
