[Bug 891947] Re: Desktop not completely displayed after install
I'm still stuck using the less accelerated driver.

[Bug 891947] Re: Desktop not completely displayed after install
Installed copy is working using the Nouveau driver. Tried to switch by just disabling the "post-release updates" entry in the 3rd party drivers applet. Rebooted and same problem. This might be because I'd created an xorg.conf in the process of trying to fix my problem. It still listed the "nvidia" driver. After switching that line to "nouveau", commenting out the options that seemed related to the proprietary driver, and manually removing the nvidia-current package using "sudo apt-get remove nvidia-current" it seems to be working as I'd expect (whole screen displayed). Not sure all above is required, but it works for me after doing that. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/891947 Title: Desktop not completely displayed after install To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers/+bug/891947/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Randomness...I setup my system to automatically login, but it seems to boot up and let me start a terminal only to show the login prompt (that I can't see).

Problem appears using Nvidia's driver, but not with NOUVEAU. Targeting that package for now.

I'll attach output from inside the broken install next. I tried to
install "read-edid" into my USB stick, but the package doesn't exist
according to apt-get and the software center. And I don't want to apt-
get update/upgrade in case that breaks everything.
According to the Xorg.0.log file the USB stick is using the NOUVEAU
driver ('Failed to load module "nvidia" (module does not exist, 0)'). I
think that is probably why it works and my installed version doesn't (it
installed the proprietary driver by default). That seems bad that the
Nvidia offered driver has problems (if true).
And Grub2's menu displays correctly at what I'm guessing is the default
screen resolution. The text is super tiny compared what what I used to
see back with 10.10, which I think was using 640x480.

** Description changed: After installing my desktop is shifted to the left and up (can't see that part of the screen). That seems to indicate the wrong resolution or frequency to me. I'm using DVI output and a DVI to HDMI cable (monitor was sold as a monitor, not TV). 1920x1200 is default resolution and it looks like that is what is being displayed, but I think it is using 50.0 Hz (* marks it in xrandr -q output, and is only option for that resolution) instead of something closer to 60 or 59. - I've tried reinstalling, with no change.
