Heh. You are not helping. Please start from attach your Xorg.0.log file from openchrome. It is located at /var/log/Xorg.0.log also attach the output of `lspci -vvnn` command. Some useful information how to build Via driver is available at: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NC20 -- cannot get official via driver for s3 unichrome pro cn700 for ubuntu 8.10 intrepid to work with it! https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/394489 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-openchrome 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

** Description changed: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-openchrome + + Hardware: gateway mx3210 laptop ok so, for the longest time, via hadn't released any drivers, thus, the openchrome project was started... well, thats not what i'm here for, originally, i found out when via released the UBUNTU 7.10 drivers for my cn700 model s3 unichrome pro IGP... but they were not compatible with ubuntu 8.04 or ubuntu 8.10, which really bothered me... so finally the other day, i check if they've updated them by chance... and they have! finally i think, i've got a breakthrough for linux on this laptop! (gateway mx3210 craptop) anyway... i dont run windoze anymore. i run purely ubuntu 8.10 right now... with this video card, by default, it works with glx gears nice and fast but... it has some issue i guess with the videoram and stuff, and doesnt do 3d, but... so that leads to having flash enabled being instable, aswell as, it shuts right off the same when i stream webcam on aMSN aswell! youtube will kill it if flash is enabled, and well.. i really really really want to get this thing working fully... i got the official, proper 2d and 3d driver for this chipset, and this version of ubuntu (intrepid ibex) yet... when i follow the install instructions, it screws up upon restart, and i have to uninstall it, and re-hack my xorg.conf to work with the damn display resolution (1280x768) i'd really LOVE to know why... and I'd really love the solution to my problem they've released it, yet it doesnt seem to work for me, can anyone help? upon restart after installing the official driver it is black screen with X cursor and then the grey window in the center pops up saying, it was unable to detect my video card/display/etc and, i need to reconfigure my graphics... then i have to fix it all back to how it is now, and then... GRRR i just want things to work, and my computer not to shut off all the time... like, how come its screwing up, its the right driver, for this version... i dont get it... what am i missing? anyone know? -- cannot get official via driver for s3 unichrome pro cn700 for ubuntu 8.10 intrepid to work with it! https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/394489 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-openchrome 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

oh, wait so, you're saying that, they released it, but, ubuntu wont support it? NOW THEY WONT SUPPORT THEM, FIRST IT WAS VIA THAT WOULDNT SUPPORT LINUX WITH THE REAL DRIVERS... THEN THEY WRITE THEM, THEN THEY WRITE A NEW UPDATED 2D AND 3D DRIVER, AND STILL NO GO... AND NOW UBUNTU WONT SUPPORT THEIR STUFF, THIS HAS BEEN RIDICULOUS FOR ME... I'LL HAVE TO FIND SOMEWHERE ELSE TO LOOK FOR SOME ASSISTANCE THEN WONT I. I HOPE UBUNTU TEN IS GOING TO SUPPORT IT FULLY, WITH VIA'S REAL 2D AND 3D COMPIZ ABLE DRIVERS. SHEEESSHHH. UNTILL THEN I'LL JUST HAVE TO KEEP WORKING AT GETTING THE REAL DRIVER TO WORK, IM PRETTY SURE ITS THE XORG THAT IT GENERATES UPON INSTALLATION...

The Ubuntu doesn't support original VIA driver. We can help you only in openchrome driver, so use it. Your hardware should be supported with openchrome driver: http://www.openchrome.org/trac/wiki/SupportedHardware Please attach your Xorg.0.log file. It is located at /var/log/Xorg.0.log also attach the output of `lspci -vvnn` command. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-openchrome (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- cannot get official via driver for s3 unichrome pro cn700 for ubuntu 8.10 intrepid to work with it! https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/394489 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-openchrome 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
