[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1313274] Re: After upgrading to 14.04, nvidia-settings crashes with BadValue X Window System error
The issue is the following: i nvidia-304-updates- NVIDIA legacy binary driver - version 304.117 The legacy driver is version 304. But nvidia-settings has version 331. In the link, tey recommend downgrading nvidia-settings, but I think it would be interesting for me to try to upgrade the driver, because it seems to support Underscan (as Overscan compensation). Probably it could solve the following issues that I have with my television set: Currently I am using a SEG Nevada television set as Monitor, but that one has the issue that it crops the image which is displayed on the screen in 720p mode. This is called Overscan and its purpose was for old (analog) signals to hide the borders that might not look nice, but today in the digital age the feature has become obsolete, because all pixels even at the border are expected to look nice (and when using a computer, they are even required as there are the taskbars, etc.). See also: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overscan Good televisions make that feature configurable: When disabled, all pixels are displayed and the image is not cropped. Unfortunately I can't find any setting to disable Overscan at the television set, even not in the secret menu. The TV service menu can be accessed by pressing MENU and then 9 3 0 1. Menu entries can be selected with the curser keys UP and DOWN and entered with RIGHT. There is also an entry EEPROM edit, but I will better leave my hands off until I know what the numbers there stand for. If someone can give me a hint how to disable Overscan, please let me know. With Ubuntu 12.04 I used as workaround the resolution 1024x768 which is not affected by the overscan issue and displays all pixels. Unfortunately the aspect ratio was not correct and pixels were not sqares, so I would prefer to use 1280x768 without Overscan or (if not possible) to compensate Overscan by leaving the hidden (non displayed) border area of the display unused, if possible. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-settings in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1313274 Title: After upgrading to 14.04, nvidia-settings crashes with BadValue X Window System error To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-settings/+bug/1313274/+subscriptions ___ 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

Trying to upgrade gives some dependency problems:
michael@quad:~/download$ sudo aptitude install nvidia-331
The following NEW packages will be installed:
bbswitch-dkms{a} libcuda1-331{a} nvidia-331{b} nvidia-libopencl1-331{ab}
nvidia-opencl-icd-331{a} nvidia-prime{a}
0 packages upgraded, 6 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 36,1 MB of archives. After unpacking 158 MB will be used.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
ocl-icd-libopencl1 : Conflicts: libopencl1 which is a virtual package.
nvidia-libopencl1-331 : Conflicts: libopencl1 which is a virtual package.
nvidia-304-updates : Conflicts: xorg-driver-binary which is a virtual package.
nvidia-331 : Conflicts: xorg-driver-binary which is a virtual package.
The following actions will resolve these dependencies:
Remove the following packages:
1) nvidia-304-updates
2) nvidia-current-updates
Keep the following packages at their current version:
3) nvidia-libopencl1-331 [Not Installed]
Leave the following dependencies unresolved:
4) nvidia-331 recommends nvidia-libopencl1-331
Accept this solution? [Y/n/q/?]
My question: Is it a good idea to leave that dependency unresolved?

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1313274] Re: After upgrading to 14.04, nvidia-settings crashes with BadValue X Window System error
Unfortunately the nvidia-331 does not work with the graphics card: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation G72 [GeForce 7300 GS] (rev a1) And the nouveau driver which is open source can only display 640x480 on the television set. So It seems that I have to stay with the nvidia driver. My problem is now: * The 1280 x 720 does not display without Overscan. I can't see the task bar. :-( * If I change to 1024 x 768 in System Settings, the computer will send 1024 x 768 @ 75 Hz while the television set only supports 60 Hz, leading to a distorted picture. Changing to 60 Hz with nvidia-settings is not possible, because the program crashes when I press Apply. :-( -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-settings in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1313274 Title: After upgrading to 14.04, nvidia-settings crashes with BadValue X Window System error To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-settings/+bug/1313274/+subscriptions ___ 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

Found a link that might be helpful: http://analogbit.com/fix_nvidia_edid You can use nvidia-settings to get your EDID info. Run nvidia-settings, click on DFP-0, then click Acquire EDID... Store the file to television-edid.bin Install the package edid-decode and do edid-decode television-edid.bin This gives the following output: ... First detailed timing is preferred timing Established timings supported: 720x400@70Hz 640x480@60Hz 640x480@67Hz 640x480@72Hz 640x480@75Hz 800x600@56Hz 800x600@60Hz 800x600@72Hz 800x600@75Hz 832x624@75Hz 1024x768@60Hz 1024x768@70Hz 1024x768@75Hz Standard timings supported: Detailed mode: Clock 74.250 MHz, 708 mm x 398 mm 1280 1720 1760 1980 hborder 0 720 725 730 750 vborder 0 +hsync +vsync Monitor ranges: 56-76HZ vertical, 31-61kHz horizontal, max dotclock 80MHz ... Thus the television says it can do 1024x768@75Hz, and it is not NVIDIAS fault that it gets such a signal that it cannot display well when switching to 1024x768. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-settings in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1313274 Title: After upgrading to 14.04, nvidia-settings crashes with BadValue X Window System error To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-settings/+bug/1313274/+subscriptions ___ 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
