Help!!! Sansung laptop 300e4x-u09,Arch x86_64 GUI slow

Hi all:
I just bought a new laptop , Sansung 300e4x-u09 ,which has intel i3-2328 cpu , NVIDIA GeForce GT 620M graphic card , and 500GB harddisk , 4 GB RAM  ( I added 2 GB );
And I installed Archliux x86_64 using the 2012.10.06 install media following "The beginner's guide"
It boots to login manage (I tested slim and kdm) for a long time , and start the kde very slowly even xfce4  also slowly,  after installing  the intel graphic driver follow wiki , then reboot and  startx ,one cpu core used 100% , and the DE(xfce4) starts also slowly , and I can not logout or reboot computer in xfce ( I could do these before intall intel graphic driver ) and the harddisk's led blinks when start DE.
I tested Compiz-fusion , but fails...
I got errors when run "Xorg -configure" as root , it says Server terminated with error (2) , how does this happen .... if you know ,please tell me how to config Xorg correctly .
My harddisk partion (GPT partition table) :
sda1   nofs     2MB       for_grub2_core_img
sda2   xfs       50GB      /
sda3   xfs       50GB      /home
sda4   xfs       115GB   
sda5   xfs       100GB
sda6   xfs       100GB
sda7   reiserfs  16GB  /var
I used parted live CD to make partitions using default settings.
Now I want to reinstall Arch , I don't know whether the GPT or the 64 bit or the XFS FS affects the GUI speed,I intalled Arch 32bit half year ago ,using MBR partition table on a old PC,it ran fast ,I do not know why this happened on new laptop.
any suggestion on / partition FS , EXT4 or XFS or others ?
how do you get deal with Nvidia card and integrated intel graphic card , just shutdown the Nvidia card ?
any suggestion on optimize arch ?
Thanks

Why such crazy partion layout?
I installed Arch on my laptop(Leno  Thinkpad Edge E530)  some days ago my partion layut was the folling:
Drive 1 500GB:
Size       Mountpoint  Type    Comment
1 MB      none            none    for disk alligment
100 MB  /boot            ext2
30GB     /                    ext4
430GB   /home
I think they reason was your partion layout and maybe you don't installed the intel drivers.

  • [SOLVED] Fail to boot Arch x86_64 live CD on a HP laptop

    Hey, guys, what's up?
    Well, here's the thing: I bought a new laptop a couple days ago and I'm kind of having some trouble. Its a HP Pavilion dm4-1063cl (this model: http://www.notebookcheck.info/HP-Pavili … 579.0.html, just in case).
    I ran some tests in Windows 7 about the architecture of the processor and it clearly seems that it can support arch x86_64 bits. However, I tried to boot Arch x86_64 by a Net Installation CD and it doesn't work. The process fail in the "Loadin UDEV events" phase, something like that. PS: the i686 image boots perfectly.
    Then, I thought that was the CD I burned the reason for trouble - I did not check md5sum and stuff like that. So, I burned another dual image (with boths i686 and x86_64) and tried to run again the 64bits kernel. It did not work in the same phase.
    The only response I get is a dark screen that never seems to go away. It was a panic I've never seen before with Arch Linux.
    The only alternative I can think right now is trying an older version of the live image CD and see what happens, but it doesn't seem like a very good option. Any ideas?
    Hope someone of you can help me. Here in Brazil, most of computers we buy come with Windows installed and we don't have quite a chance of not getting - or paying for - it. I'm sure I'll have such a trouble installing dual boot with Arch Linux, but I really miss my Arch Linux...
    And, damn, I worked too hard to get a new processor. I really dont wanna use Arch i686 on a pc with x86_64 architecture, it seems like an option, but a dumb one. =p
    Cheers,
    Wilson.
    EDIT: It turns out that tt was not a kernel panic as I thought. The kernel changed the resolution of the display during this fase, and somehow it doesent work.
    The trick I used to solve this was adding "nomodeset" to the kernel line in the Live CD booting. Btw, you can do it by selecting the booting option you want in the live CD and pressing TAB. Then, you can edit the kernel line. (:

    HP DM4-1265, Intel Corei5, Intel Graphics.  (Two days old, windoze wiped, Arch installed)
    At boot the brightness is, for some unexplained reason, set all the way down to 0 on these intel based DM4 laptops. A few simple <Fn>+<F3> turns the brightness back up.
    To solve this I had to put this in rc.local -
    echo 6 > /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness
    you can enter it manually to test first (as root). Try to turn your brightness up and down with it to make sure it works.
    My fan ran like crazy too. HP chose to default a BIOS setting that keeps the fan running constantly. I disabled that and all is well. Fan only comes on when needed and lm_sensors shows my temps, right now, at 43C. Ambient is at 77F right now (I'm in Florida) and this kick butt Arch laptop is, in fact, on my lap.....
    Don't give up man.
    First of all: thanks for replying.
    I installed manually the "coretemp" kernel modules and lm-sensors now give some different response. The script "sensors-detect" does not find any answer.
    Looks like the temperature run in a regular level (50º-60º), which I consider a good sign. However, sometimes when I use arch for 24h+, it shuts down suddenly and does not let me boot my computer again - I believe it is a overheating problem. Happened a couple times, big no big deal.
    On the other hand, in Windows 7 I have no trouble at all. The temperature goes around 40º with some daily activities. It worries me out because I used - and I do use - largely and successfully Arch i686 version in crappy notebooks with no heating at all.
    I tried some tweaks in the rc.local, but none of them seemed to really work. With cpufreq, I could slow down the processors and maintain a regular temperature. Looks like I can list some of the fans speed in the /sys/ files, but much of them do not seem to have any change at all. Some of them looks like to have some "max_state" set to low values like 1, but most do have a limit like 10.
    I will keep trying. If there's anything new, I'll post here

    I suspect that it's still the case. You may even have this message in your own dmesg.
    Switch console to VGA mode and use xterm instead.
    This has nothing to do with resolution setting in a framebuffer, which is what the title of the thread suggests.
    I'm pretty sure it does - it looks like the console is being switched to VGA text mode; nvidia has no reason to touch fonts.

  • Automated install Arch x86_64 root-file system the "Raspberry" way..

    Dear Archers,
    I am currently deeply interested in installing Arch as dual boot on my
    current x86_64 system.
    And yes, there is plenty information regarding this subject in Arch wiki's.
    However...
    I would like to automate the installation the "Raspberry-Pi" -way.
    Details on the "Installation tab" of:
    http://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv6/raspberry-pi.
    As you can see, the installation steps are easy to automate, in my opinion.
    That's why I wrote an automation script for this purpose..
    The information further suggests that there is a root-filesystem for
    Arch named: 'ArchLinuxARM-rpi-latest.tar.gz.'
    Unfortunately, I don't think this root system will function on x86_64 systems..
    So I researched if there was a root filesystem for Arch x86_64 and found filenames like 'root-image.fs.sfs' 'core.db' 'core.img'.
    But I'm unsure if these archives/images really contain a rootfilesystem similar to the ArchARm system.
    Therefore my question:
    Does anybody know if there is a similar root filesystem for x86_64 so I can reproduce the "rpi-way" installation for x86_64 systems?
    Kind regards,
    Kees Epema

    You are definitely not going to be able to simply dd arch to your machine unless you create an image to do so.  Even then, that image would become old and stale pretty quickly, possibly leading to problems getting the system up to date.
    In my opinion, the raspberry pi way to simply dd'ing an image to an SD card is a disservice to the ArchlinuxARM users.  Though seemingly the proper way to get a system running on a raspberry pi, it masks the install process and leaves the user without a clue as to what would have gone into creating the system.
    Go read the beginners guide.  Use a virtual machine to practice if you need.  Shortcuts are not going to help you with Arch.

    OK, assuming the patch posted there fixes the problem, the only problem before you is how to patch?
    If that's the case, you should first download the patch content posted on the AUR page and save it with the given filename, i.e., vmblock-9.0.2-5.0.2-3.12.patch
    Then put the filename in the sources field of the PKGBUILD and put the file's md5sum in the respective field of the PKGBUILD as well.
    After that, run
    $ makepkg -si
    You might want to read the following for reference:

  • Arch x86_64 won't boot, but i686 will. Live USB and HDD.

    To be more succinct, what could cause 64 bit arch not to boot when 32 bit arch boots fine on a non-UEFI system that supports 64 bit, when all other variables are constant?
    My first response seeing this post would be to immediately assume the noob (me) posting this doesn't know the difference between a 32 and 64 bit system. However, "ubuntu-14.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso" (latest 64 bit ubuntu iso) boots from live USB and installs without error. It also came preinstalled with Windows 7 (64 bit), so I'm relatively sure it supports x86_64.
    I wrote "archlinux-2014.08.01-dual.iso" (MD5 verified) to my USB. Selecting i686 boots fine. Selecting x86_64 restarts my system, eventually sending me back to the arch live menu after it posts.
    Upon recommendation by a WonderWoofy on reddit, I tried to install arch x86_64 by bootstrapping and chrooting from the 64 bit ubuntu live usb. I ended up with same problem, where attempting to load arch reboots my system immediately.
    Right now, I'm assuming it's the same issue booting from the live usb (arch iso) and from the arch installation on my hard drive, since they seem identical to me. I haven't tried recreating the install for i686 to see if it works (mainly because it's late -- if it'll help I'll do it upon suggestion).
    Here's the only text that shows once I attempt to boot into arch. This is from the hard drive and using syslinux (which is pointed at my root partition on sda -- I don't have a boot partition).
    Loading ../vmlinuz-linux... ok
    Loading ../initramfs-linux.img...ok
    Probing EDD (edd=off to disable)... ok
    Which doesn't look like it's messing up anywhere...
    And of course I'm a noob so go easy on me x)
    UPDATE: I found this thread but I'm not seeing his error message, so I'm not sure what to do.

  • Automatically tagging arch=(x86_64) to PKGBUILDs in yaourt?

    Every time I get a package from the AUR, I need to manually edit it to add the arch=('x86_64') string so I can get packages to install.  Is there something magical I could to to put that string in the PKGBUILDs, as well as make me a burger?  I am really hungry.

    Tom's got a point - if you find a package missing x86_64 as a supported arch, and you can build and run it fine on your system, let the package maintainer know so they can add it into the PKGBUILD.
    In any case, this is a bit hacky, but will probably work:
    #!/bin/bash
    # makepkg64.sh - add the x86_64 arch as supported, then make the package.
    [ -f ./PKGBUILD ] && echo "arch=('x86_64')" >> PKGBUILD
    makepkg $@

    ok dumb questions but im just trying to narrow down the problem.  First lets look at memory, how many chips do you have?  If you have two do you notice any change in system performance when you take one of them out...what about the other one? The terminal test shows, I think, that the nvidia is not the problem.  Trying to narrow down and be sure it's not a memory issue.  Next thing you could check, which could really help, is grab yourself a live cd of just about any distro, prefirably arch though:)..... How fast does the live cd run?  (trying to narrow the possibility that its the hard drive)  Does it run fast on the livecd?  if so.... would everyone agree that that implies the hard drive has a problem?  Those are the two big culprits of slugishness. 
    Secondly, lets see some error logs if thats ok...?  can you post some of these?
    Thanks for your patience.
    BTW now my glxgears hover at around 2900... so somehow the network daemon was affecting the video card???
    if yours are dumb questions I am gonna reply with even dumber questions! :-)
    I have a dual core
    How can I take out one of the chips? you don't mean physically right??
    The live cd doesn't run very fast because you have the bottleneck of the cd drive which has to read everything when you issue a command. At least this with kubuntu hardy
    which error logs should I issue? how to get them? please do not throw tomatoes at me for my ignorance!!!
    I am going to soon reboot and see if removing the nvidia module helps
