Hello all, First: ======
to auto-build the kernel module 'sony-laptop-zseries-0.9np2' (or successor) one can (should) use dkms. Here my solution step by step: http://global-social.net/tiki-blog_post.php#sony-laptop_module_installation @ Norbert Preining: * - could you please provide the dkms.conf in future versions? * - I made some changes to the Makefile: 1.) the uninstall target did not "depmod -a" 2.) between this lines: KDIR := /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r) PWD := $(shell pwd) added: ifdef SYSSRC KERNEL_SOURCES := $(SYSSRC) KERNEL_HEADERS := $(KERNEL_SOURCES)/include else ifdef SYSINCLUDE KERNEL_HEADERS := $(SYSINCLUDE) KERNEL_SOURCES := $(KERNEL_HEADERS)/.. else KERNEL_SOURCES := $(shell test -d $(KDIR)/source && echo $(KDIR)/source || echo $(KDIR)/build) KERNEL_HEADERS := $(KERNEL_SOURCES)/include endif endif to enable build in advance (directly after kernel upgrade before reboot) here to copy & paste: http://global-social.net/files/Makefile_sony-laptop-0.9np2 Second: ======= After an upgrade from the packages "xserver-xorg-core" and or "libgl1-mesa-glx", the new libs won't be installed as usual after the nvidia driver was installed. I wrote a script doing this job: http://global-social.net/tiki-view_blog.php?blogId=3#update-gl Third: ====== There is an update for the upstart script /etc/init/switch-x-to.conf You should try this version, it now recognizes the true acpi state nearly always to enable the right graphic acceleration. If you only want to upgrade this script: sudo wget -O /etc/init/switch-x-to.conf \ http://global-social.net/files/switch-x-to.conf If you do not (yet) use this upstart method with the auto switch script, look here for inspiration: http://global-social.net/tiki-view_blog.php?blogId=3#postId4 h.t.h. regards, Raphael -- (Please post and/or answer >if possible< with Reply-to: sony-vaio-z-series@lists.launchpad.net Thanks)
