Getting the right nvidia drivers?/gnome3 problems (which are realated)

I am having trouble getting the correct drivers for my graphics card, and problems with gnome3. before I wright anymore I would like to say that I have seen and heard about "the arch way" and that moderators can be unnecessarily rude sometimes, I hope that these things aren't true and that you are a nice group of people. (Which is what I have seen so-far
I have a dell optiplex gx620 with a ******* graphics card
I went through the beginners guide on the arch wiki it told me to install several different drivers, I installed this driver:  xf86-video-nouveau (along with gnome3)
I changed my .xinitrc and typed in startx
gnome3 put me into failsafe mode
I tried the nouveau-dri drivers
when I had rebooted and ran startx it gave me the error that it had crashed so I went back into text mode the text on the screen said something about eth0 not being connected, so I ran dhcpdc etho0 and then tried startx again, and it didn't fail.
why would being connected to the internet have anything to do with gnome3 working or not? (I realize that this is a gnome problem, but if anybody could help then it would be great)
it was still in fallback mode.
my question is, how do I get gnome3 to work?
thank you in advance

According to this link:
http://www.dell.com/downloads/global/pr … 620_en.pdf
You have either an Intel integrated graphics solution or ATI.  Neither should have Nouveau.  It is very, very likely you have a dedicated GPU card.  But, to help, the model and make of the graphics solution will really be needed.

  • Qosmio F750-10N and Win8.1 - haven't been able to get the right BT drivers

    Hi,
    Since upgrading my HDD and installing Windows 8(.1), I haven't been able to get the right Bluetooth drivers for my Qosmio F750-10N.
    If I go through the download drivers section of the site, the drop down boxes for Language and region seem to be faulty so it won't show me any drivers.
    Tried installing a generic Toshiba Bluetooth stack but it doesn't seem to be able to recognise my actual Bluetooth device. Also tried going through the Atheros site without much luck.
    Please could someone help or possibly post a link to a download mirror.
    Thanks very much.

    Hi
    First of all it seems that Win 8.1 is not supported for Qosmio F750.
    Therefore I could be difficult to get BT working
    However, as far as I know the Qosmio F750-10N was equipped with an Atheros AR9285 WLan/BT combo card.
    This means that one module shares the WLan and BT and you need to install the Atheros BT Filter driver.
    Beside the BT filter installation you have to install the Toshiba System Driver for Win 8.1
    This system driver needs to be installed before BT filter driver.
    But as I said: Win 8.1 is not supported for this Qosmio unit and you will not find Win 8.1 drivers in the F750 driver download section.
    But you should try the drivers released for other, newer Qosmio series; i.e. X870
    Good luck

  • How to get the list of all process order which are settled?

    Hello Friends,
    Is there any  standard report available to get the list of all settled  Process Order or  Production order?
    Thanking all of you in advance.

    Hi,
    You can the below standardreports for knowing the list of Settled Process Orders :
    1. Use Tcode : COOIS and in the selection fields provide the Process Order Type, Plant and System Status As " SETT" and execute the same . System will list all the Process Orders which were settled so far.
    2. Use Tcode : CO26 with selection fields as above.

  • Imposible to get the right win7 drivers to my MBP 15 (late 2011)?

    I have followed the steps during installing windows 7 with the BootCamp 4.0.
    I got the question if I wanted the related software on CD/DVD og on USB Storrage.
    I picked the last one, USB.
    But it no WIFI, VIDEO, NETWORK, and posible sound Drivers on the USB.
    IT´s empty.
    I googled the problem, and can see to find a way to solve this problem.
    Is there no way to download a package of drivers to my MAC?
    Is there no way to download the drivers separatly to my MAC?
    Do I realy have to do the proses one more time? and hope to be lucky?
    Please help a macn00b in great danger!

    Did you insert AND run the USB stick after Windows was installed? When Windows restarted, if you had the USB stick plugged in, it should have brought up a menu on which to chose from, Run.... or Open File....
    If it didn't, you will have to open the USB disk and look for the setup.exe.
    Just click on it and it should start and install the drivers. Then you will have to restart again.

  • Need a way to get the datasources in R/3 DEV which are created directly in R/3 Prod

    Hi Experts,
    We have done cloud migration recently.  The exact scenario is as follow :
    We have tacken system copy of original BI PROD to BI DEV, QA and PROD on cloud.
    But for R/3 we have tacken system copy of original R/3 DEV to Cloud R/3 DEV.
    But the problem is, before migration we had created some datasources directly in original R/3 PROD. Hence those datasources are not present in R/3 DEV on cloud because its a system copy of original R/3 DEV. (But BI DEV is system copy of original BI Prod ).
    We can not take system copy of R/3 Prod to R/3 DEV because we have done large developements in R/3 DEV after migration which we dont want miss.
    Now our concern is how we can get those missing datasources back to cloud R/3 DEV.
    Please let us know if there is any way in which we can get them from R/3 Prod or any other solution ??
    Thanks in advance !

    Maybe deauthorize one of them.

  • How can I get the right click to work in firefox -- it works in internet explorer

    how can I get the right click to work in firefox -- it works in interne

    Try the Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there. <br />
    ''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' <br />
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
    * You can open the Firefox 4/5/6/7 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
    ''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."''
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
    If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. <br />

  • Trying to install the latest version of iTunes and when it is being installed I get the message "There is a problem with this installer package. A program quired for this install could not be run. Contact your support personel or package vendor."

    I am trying to install the latest version of itunes and when the install begins I get the message "There is a problem with this Windows installer package. A program required for this install could not be opened. contact your support personnel or product vendor". I ran a troubleshooting diagnostic on my computer and nothing flagged as a problem. I uninstalled iTunes and tried again and now I don't have any way to sync my ipod touch. Please help with any suggestions!!!

    Just in case, let's try a standalone AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi install.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe, and select "Extract to iTunesSetup". WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup".
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi to do a standalone ASU install.
    (If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi again.)
    Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If not, what error message do you get? (Precise text, please.)

  • How can I get the list of drivers without getting popup message?

    Every time the application gets to this line:
    File[] roots = File.listRoots();
    I get message box: "There is no disk in the drive.
    Please insert disk into drive A:"
    How can I get the list of drivers without getting
    this message popup?

    I don't have a solution to this problem. However, it does occur and it is annoying. I am testing our application on 4 client machines. On three of them, it NEVER asks for the floppy disk. On the remaining one, it ALWAYS asks. I have looked on the computers and cannot find any configuration differences (in fact, these machines are kept in a "closed environment", and therefore, they are configured, by default, exactly the same).
    Does anyone have any thoughts?

  • How to get the right Serial Number during Pick Release

    Please we need your help to get the right serial number => Auto-Allocate on YES, Pick Confirm with NO.
        A problem is occurring during the Pick Release process.  Custom code has been added to the hook INV_DETAIL_SERIAL_PUB to provide the Pick Release process with the serial number to pick for the item being pick released.  The hook works and the Pick Release process picks the correct (specified) serial number.  However, at some point later in the Pick Release process the lot number is chosen and the process seems to pick the first lot number it finds available for the item – it does not take into account the serial number provided by the hook.  This causes the Pick Release process to fail when the lot number chosen is not the lot number linked to the serial number.  Has anyone else encountered this same issue?
        An example:
    Item ABC123
    Serial SER001 – Lot LOT001
    Serial SER002 – Lot LOT002
    Serial SER003 – Lot LOT003
    Item ABC123 is being pick released.
    The customised hook provides the Pick Release process with serial SER002.
    The Pick Release process correctly uses SER002, but chooses lot LOT001.
    thanks!
    Francisco

    Hi,
    I guess you have added the code at slightly different place.
    Pick Release Process will always allocate lots based on Inventory Picking Rule (or WMS Pick Strategy if you are using WMS).
    So if you want to override that you much first delete the MTLT record (inv_trx_util_pub.delete_lot_ser_trx), then insert MTLT with your Lot number (inv_trx_util_pub.insert_lot_trx)..then insert MSNT (inv_trx_util_pub.insert_ser_trx) with your serial number.
    Ensure that transaction_temp_id on MSNT should match with SERIAL_TRANSACTION_TEMP_ID on MTLT table.
    Thanks,
    Hrishi

  • Get the right path

    here's the problem
    i want to get the right path while i'm choosing the directory from JFilechooser
    JFileChooser fileChooser = new JFileChooser();
    fileChooser.setFileSelectionMode(fileChooser.DIRECTORIES_ONLY);
    int returnValue = fileChooser.showOpenDialog(null);
    if (returnValue == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION) {                   
          File myFile = fileChooser.getCurrentDirectory();                                       
          System.out.println(" dir name : " + myFile.getAbsolutePath() + " " + myFile.getName() );
    }so when i'm choosing a directory, just say it "c:\pdf"
    but using getAbsolutePath() only return "c:\"
    did i miss something here?what's wrong with my code...
    or is there any method to do so?
    i want to return the path..in this case "c:\pdf"

    Try JFileChooser's getSelectedFile() method instead of getCurrentDirectory().

    Repair your Apple software update.
    Go to START > ALL PROGRAMS > Apple Software Update. If it offers you a newer version of Apple Software Update, do it but Deselect any other software offered at the same time. Once done, try another iTunes install
    If you don't find ASU, go to Control Panel:

  • My Imac needs a new hard drive. Can anyone help ensure I get the right one?

    I have an Imac from around 2008-09. IMac8,1
    It's running Mac Os X ver. 10.5.8 and has the stock hard drive in it.
    2gb ram
    Running a 2.8ghz Intel Core 2 Duo and I think has like 250 gb
    I'd like to get something bigger and also upgrade the operating system.  Don't need multiple TB's nor can I afford it but want to ensure i get the right thing for my needs.
    It won't install adobe photoshop 6 because operating system is too old but don't want to spend money on new operating system with hard drive that keeps failing.
    Error code: 4hdd/11/40000000 SATA (0,0) !
    Got this error code about a year ago.  downloaded a manual fan program that has helped but every third day or so it crashes and when i try reboot i get the dreaded question mark.  usually if i let it rest for an hour or two it fires up but i don't want to risk anymore.
    any help greatly appreciated.
    cheers

    I suspect a failed HD, in that case I'd recommend Apple Hardware Test in Extended Mode at least 3x. You will need the original install discs that shipped with the computer, if you do not have them any longer you will need to order a replacement set from Apple by calling AppleCare. You will need a credit card and the serial number of the machine. The cost should be nominal.

  • When importing from my camera or file in Lightroom 5 my pictures are over-exposed by 1-2 stops, while they are well exposed on the camera-screen. How to get the 'right-exposed pictures on the screen?

    When importing from my camera or file in Lightroom 5 my pictures are over-exposed by 1-2 stops, while they are well exposed on the camera-screen. How to get the 'right-exposed pictures on the screen?

    There is an option in your Lightroom preferences on the General tab, "Treat JPEG files next to raw files as separate images". If you have that option checked then Lightroom will import and display both your raw and JPEG files. Are you using active D-lighting on your camera? If you are then you need to turn off that feature.
