[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 653714] Re: Garbage on X display w/ Dell D800 wuxga & nouveau driver (Nvidia GeForce4 Ti 4200 Go AGP rev a1 [NV28])
Note the workarounds appear _not_ to work with Natty. I upgraded and couldn't convince Natty to install -96 fully. I don't recall the exact message, but I think it suggested it couldn't satisfy the package dependencies. When I install 185 as in comment #9, the driver doesn't appear to recognize the hardware. root@johnn-craylap:~# cd /lib/modules/`uname -r` root@johnn-craylap:/lib/modules/2.6.38-8-generic# find . -iname "nv*" -print ./kernel/drivers/char/nvram.ko ./kernel/drivers/video/nvidia ./kernel/drivers/video/nvidia/nvidiafb.ko ./kernel/drivers/watchdog/nv_tco.ko ./updates/dkms/nvidia-current.ko root@johnn-craylap:/lib/modules/2.6.38-8-generic# root@johnn-craylap:/lib/modules/2.6.38-8-generic# insmod updates/dkms/nvidia-current.ko insmod: error inserting 'updates/dkms/nvidia-current.ko': -1 No such device root@johnn-craylap:/lib/modules/2.6.38-8-generic# root@johnn-craylap:/lib/modules/2.6.38-8-generic# dpkg --get-selections | grep -i nv libgnome2-canvas-perl install libgnomecanvas2-0 install libgnomecanvas2-common install libgoocanvas-common install libgoocanvas3 install libtext-iconv-perl install nvidia-current install nvidia-glx-185 install nvidia-settings install python-gnomecanvas install python-pygoocanvas install python-uniconvertor install xserver-xorg-video-nv install root@johnn-craylap:/lib/modules/2.6.38-8-generic# -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-nouveau in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/653714 Title: Garbage on X display w/ Dell D800 wuxga & nouveau driver (Nvidia GeForce4 Ti 4200 Go AGP rev a1 [NV28]) ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

I was messing with a different disk today and I noticed the most current nvidia driver works in addition to the -96 driver. I deleted all the loaded nvidia packages, then deleted the nouveau package, then with the gui tool installed the nvidea-185 package and then rebooted. It shows I have the following packages installed: nvidia-current nvidia-glx-185 nvidia-settings -john -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-nouveau in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/653714 Title: Garbage on X display w/ Dell D800 wuxga & nouveau driver (Nvidia GeForce4 Ti 4200 Go AGP rev a1 [NV28]) ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 653714] Re: X display shows garbage w/ nouveau & Nvidia GeForce4 Ti 4200 Go AGP rev a1 (NV28)
As a workaround, I was able to get the nvidia-96 drivers working, but it isn't quite seamless. First, I removed all nvidia packages that were currently installed (with --purge), then selected and installed the nvidia-96 drivers by searching "nvidia" within the "Ubuntu Software Center" and selecting "nvidia-96". At this point the display would not start with the xorg.conf generated by the "nvidia-xconfig" utility. If you tried to start X with this xorg.conf file, you'd get a complaint that it couldn't find the nvidia driver. Without an xorg.conf file, X would start, but set to a lower resolution with no ability to switch to 1920x1200. At some point, I wondered if the nouveau driver was conflicting. I removed the xserver-xorg-video-nouveau package (again with --purge) and then (with no xorg.conf file) the nvidia 96 driver started working correctly with full resolution. So the working config is: jo...@johnn-craylap:~$ dpkg --get-selections | grep -i nvidia nvidia-96 install nvidia-glx-96 install nvidia-settings install jo...@johnn-craylap:~$ dpkg --get-selections | grep -i nouve libdrm-nouveau1 install jo...@johnn-craylap:~$ ls -al /etc/X11/xorg.conf ls: cannot access /etc/X11/xorg.conf: No such file or directory jo...@johnn-craylap:~$ -- X display shows garbage w/ nouveau & Nvidia GeForce4 Ti 4200 Go AGP rev a1 (NV28) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/653714 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-nouveau in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

I re-installed 10.04 on a different disk, and found that a fresh install used the nouveau driver as well and that it too exhibited the screen garbage problem. However, with 10.04, selecting "hardware drivers" offers the Nvidia accelerated graphics driver (version 96), which, once activated, works correctly with no garbage.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 653714] [NEW] X display shows garbage w/ nouveau & Nvidia GeForce4 Ti 4200 Go AGP rev a1 (NV28)
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau I have a Dell D800 laptop with high resolution screen (1920x1200) that was working fine with Ubuntu 10.04. I performed a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.10 which appears to use the nouveau driver. The screen now displays garbage, more pronounced on icons, where text seems to render fairly well. I've attached a picture of the screen to illustrate. While I've tried to intall the Nvidia drivers, this problem manifested from the initial install of the 10.10 alternate RC disc, and remains present with all packages updated as of 10/1 where no alternate driver install was attempted. Please let me know what information I might be able to provide that would be useful in fixing this problem.
