Installing tonight - Dell D830 - Intel Integrated Video/Dell Wireless

Hi,
I am going to install tonight and I am "ok" with linux.  I am tired of all the "one in all solutions", especially when they never work as intended..
I wanted to ask about a couple items, and I have the guide all printed out to go.
1.  It appears my video will be fine from what I have read, does anyone have any advice in terms of how to configure xorg.conf and at what point I add in my graphical choice?
2.  Is KDEMOD the best option for arch?  It looks good, I tried to install Chakra today but the disk kept failing on the partitioning so I am not sure what was going on.
3.  Wireless - it looks like I need the fwcutter firmware and have to update the drivers.  I would like to use wireless as quickly as possible after my install.  Is there a way to get that going asap or only until I have it installed and onine?
Any other "gotcha's" about installing?
THX!!!:D

1.) My advice: don't bother with xf86-video-intel, go straight for xf86-video-intel-legacy. The new one just isn't worth the hassle. Plus, I've actually read that xf86-video-intel-legacy is faster (I don't know if this is true or not, though).
2.) The best choice is whatever works best for you. You should be able to find plenty of debates on which DE is the best. Usually the arguments are KDE vs. GNOME, but Xfce often comes into the mix, and occasionally you might see mention of Enlightenment. LXDE is also worth checking out.
Anyway, if you think KDEMOD might be what you want, go ahead and try it out! It's easy enough to replace if you decide you don't like it. When people ask me what DE to use, I usually recommend Xfce.
3.) I'm sorry, I can't help you there. I run Arch on my desktop, so I don't use wireless. I'm not even sure what you're asking, though.
Any other "gotcha's" about installing?
I recommend having another computer available while you're installing, in case you're not sure what to do next, and need to ask or something.
Good luck, and welcome to the community.

    Hello people!
    I`m new to Arch, i installed it a while ago on my desktop PC and it works like a charm, so i want now to install it on my laptop.

    This is my system info:
    Product  Dell Inspiron N5110

    The process is very much the same as your desktop install. Just follow the Beginner's Guide and you should be fine. There are, however, a few things you may want to consider (and this applies to laptops in general, not to any specific model): https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Laptop
    If it comes with an SSD, you should also read the wiki article on SSD's: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/SSD

    above card are having issue with WPA2 enabled ssid connecitivity. strange is , the same users are getting connected to other wep enabled SSID but its not working for WPA2 SSID.
    I have external ACS server which is used for radius authentication. Last time I had put same query in support forum did some workaround.
    eq. disabling DHCP proxy option in WLC and moving all DHCP scope in external server.
    After doing this workaround this mentioned users are still facing issue. I gone through some cisco document and some forums and came across that there is something to be done in " Session Timed Out "  optionin WLC
    which is default 1800 sec based on that I tried to capture debug outputs for mentioned above problematic clients and user who is working fine .
    I gone through the same debug output  and observed :
    User who is working fine :

    If there is no driver compatible with OX X 10.7 you might want to consider getting a different printer. It may save hair pulling and aggravation.

  • Nvidia Optimus Support under XP - NVS3100mm vs Intel integrated

    Hi,
    We are currently in the process of evaluating the T510 as our new standard laptop.
    We are considdering purchasing teh 4314-9WG model, that has on board both the Nvidia Quadro NVS3100mm, as well as the integrated Intel graphics of the QM57 chipset. 
    Now normally, the Nvidia Optimus system would enable the user to switch between these 2 graphics "cards"  on the fly (as I understand it). 
    However, our current install image is still based on Windows XP SP3, as there is no driver support for Nvidia Optimus for XP.
    Thus, we have the following question: 
    Will our users be able to use the Intel integrated Graphics by default on XP, even though the Optimus witching will not work. 
    or in other words: 
    Is the Optimus driver a pre-requisite for using one or the other video card as default under Windows XP
    What will the Laptop due without this driver? 
    We would accept that for now, users would be bound to only use either the Intel integrated graphics, or the Nvidia Quadro. 

    I am able to get the NVS3100 working ok under XP, except that is defaults to 16bit color for some reason, which I then have to change manually. 
    Now, for the Integrated Intel HD Graphics, I do the following: 
    In the BIOS, under Display, the "graphics device" is set to Integrated Graphics, and the "OS detection for NVIDIA Optimus" is set to disabled. 
    I am using the latest drivers for Intel HD, 6.14.10.5313
    When Windows XP boots, it detects 2 devices: 
    - Audiodevice on bus for High Definition Audio
    - Videocontroller (VGA Compatible)
    If I now try to install the intel driver pack ( 6.14.10.5313 )  it will start with the installation for the Intel Turbo Boost Technology Driver. This seems to install without problem.
    But when I click finish at teh end of it, nothing else happens. 
    What I expect is that it would now start the install for the Intel HD Graphics setup. And it simply doesnt. 
    If I first unpack the executable, i get a folder called DISPLAY6
    Inside, I can start an executable called Setup (Intel HD Graphics Installer) But all this seems to do is start the Turbo Boost Technology driver setup again. And afterwards, again, nothing happens. 
    I have tried it both from a situation where the NVIDIA drivers where previously not installed, and where they where installed and I switched it later. Both give the same results.
    Its almost like it doesnt properly detect teh hardware, or cant see that the Intel driver goes with it. 
    I have also tried to manually install teh driver, by pointing to unknown VGA device to teh unpacked driver location, but it doesnt find any drivers there that it can use. 

  • Ati Mobility HD 5470/Intel integrated hybrid graphics

    Hi! I have a Acer TimelineX 5820TZG laptop which has switchable graphics. I am struggling to make Arch work with my dual-graphics configuration, and I have tried a lot of things, but it doesn't work.
    Right now I am working with the Intel integrated graphics card but I am not even sure if the Ati is completely switched off (I am afraid it's not, as I read in a lot of posts about switchable graphics).
    The first thing I did is installing the open-source drivers for ati (xf86-video-ati) and intel (xf86-video-intel). First I tried to make both cards to work by using the vgaswitcheroo method, I mounted debugfs, modprobed the radeon module and using:
    cat /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch
    I checked that the currently working card is the Intel integrated. I made sure the ATI is switched off by doing
    echo OFF > /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch
    (As explained in the wiki for hybrid graphics) and then started the X server. In this case the X server starts and sometimes even starts loading my WM (kde), but eventually the system gets frozen and all I can see is warning messages in the terminal (CPU #1 stuck for 23s!) and I am unable to use another terminal with Ctrl+Alt+Fx or soft-resetting. Some times it gets stuck on a loop, showing a lot of messages in the terminal and not allowing me to kill the process in any way.
    Then I tried modprobing 'radeon' and then using
    echo DDIC > /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch
    to enable the dedicated graphics card (Ati) and turning off the integrated one (intel) to see what happens. In this case the X server simply crashes, leaving me with the following log:

    As it didn't work this way, I tried using the closed-source driver for ATI, the one in the Vi0L0 repository. I created the xorg.conf file using aticonfig --initial as suggested in the wiki. the result was Xserver crashing again, leaving me with the following log (which suggests that my system is not compatible with PxP tech by AMD and that I should not use the  fglrx driver).

    So I came back to open-source drivers and right now I am working with radeon driver blacklisted and only using the intel driver, but as the radeon is blacklisted, vgaswitcheroo is not created and I don't know if mi ATI card is completely switched off.
    As you can see, I have done the stuff suggested in the Acer TimelineX wiki page and it didn't work. I have also tried some other suggested actions I found but still can't get my switchable graphics to work.
    I would really like to get both my cards to work completely, so I can switch graphics and restart the X server to get better performance or enhance my batt life depending on which GPU I am using; but at this point I am just fine with turning off the ATI card completely and just work with the intel one (though if there is a method for making both work, I prefer that than just turning a card off).
    Sorry for my english!!

    how can you expect anything from the driver?
    You are right, that's why I said that it suggest that my system is not compatible with fglrx. I don't understand why the warning just before that error line says that I should uninstall fglrx because my system is Muxed and that line says that my system is muxless...
    Anyways, it doesn't matter, the fact is that fglrx doesn't work, so I will be using the open-source drivers...

  • Intel Pineview video card & unwanted framebuffer

    Hi, I just bought an Intel D510MO motherboard with the new Atom D510, the NM10 chipset and the Pineview integrated video card. Everything works well, but on boot the framebuffer is automatically activated just after disks have been checked, although I didn't add a 'vga=XXX' option in GRUB's menu.lst.
    How can I disable this and go back with no framebuffer at all? Is this related with KMS?
    Thanks

  • Dell wireless 1538 802.11 a/g/n adapter

    I have a Dell Venue 8 Pro 5830 and I cannot get an internet connection. When I run the Windows network diagnostics I get the message "The Dell wireless 1538 802.11 a/g/n adapter is experiencing driver or hardware related problems".
    I have tried everything suggested in the Tablet.  What can I do now? I bought the Tablet through Amazon and I live in Venezuela.

    I have the same EXACT problem for 3 days.Even with my 5 yr computer experience I still couldn't figure this issue out.Dell rep and I found a temp solution.restart......press f8 nonstop....click on repair......restore it to an earlier time....
    this so far is the ONLY thing wev'e tried thats had a temp and pleasing result.let me guess there's a big red x on the bottom right hand corner? also try pressing fn + f2 same time......device manger-right click on dell wireless and disable,then enable.......
    ive had my dell inspiron 5423 for 2 1/2 months off of ebay.still has warranty under owner before me.After tons of research I'm thinking either driver I bad,or hardware or when he installed fresh copy of windows 7,he didn't install everything in the correct order (very important thing to do).
    If by chance you come across a permanent solution please keep me informed.

  • Best practice for home setup/Roaming with built-in Dell wireless card?

    I have a client with a huge house; I have done a site survey and it will require 3 APs to blanket the entire thing. I am wonderig what the best way to set this up for him would be? He would like to be able to walk around with the house and not lose connectivity. He is attempting to use his built-in Dell wireless card/client. As far as I know, these do not support Cisco roaming. What I have done is setup 3 diffrent SSIDs for each part of the house. Depending on his location he manually connects to the correct AP. Is this the best setup?
    I had attempted to set all APs with the same SSIDs but found that the client would not roam and also found it difficult to connect to any of the APs at all. I believe the card was getting confused since there was overlap of the same SSID.

    If he has a huge house, I don't think his laptop would be that old and also, the Dell's use the Intel wifi cards. Having all 3 ap's setup for the same SSID is what you should do and don't know why you are having so many issues. I would assume the ap's are on channel 1, 6, and 11 and how is the power setting? Do all these ap's run back to the same switch?

  • Adobe CS4 OpenGL issues with 10.6.2 and Intel GMA950 video card

    I just upgraded to Adobe CS4 and in PS I cannot enable OpenGL. I'm running 10.6.2 on a Macbook with the Intel GMA950 video card.
    I was wondering if 10.6.2 does not have the relevant drivers for CS4 to recognize this chipset or that since the video card is integrated (as opposed to a stand alone with the newer Macbooks) that Intel has not update the drivers? It ***** since I cannot use some functions inside PS without OpenGL.

    Hello blue20 & welcome to discussions
    1.) You can search these forums for the topic of:
    Adobe CS4 GMA950
    As an example, if you haven't already, in an effort to parse what's already been discussed.
    2.) Have you looked at any of the Adobe forums:
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/2356530
    3.) How many fonts are you working with?
    The general approach at this time is to ask if you've checked for any problematic fonts (all languages) with Apple's Font Book (look in the Applications folder). Find and remove all duplicates also.
    Start there to be sure all fonts that are in play come out with a clean bill of health.
    Don't hesisate to perform wholesale deletion of old and/or little used fonts - be skeptical of anything that has come from Office 2008, including those related to an Equation Editor installation.
    By all means be sure any 3rd party apps AND plug-ins are Snow Leopard compatible.
    An additional measure is to clear the existing font caches:
    http://www.macworld.com/article/139383/2009/03/fontcacheclear.html
    That said, 10.6.2 release notes have this to say about fonts:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3874
    Fonts fixes provided for:
    • an issue with font spacing
    • an issue in which some Fonts are missing
    • font duplication issues
    • an issue with some PostScript Type 1 fonts not working properly
    Good luck in any case.

  • GLSL support for intel x3100 video cards?

    I recently purchased a Lenova Thinkpad T61. I opted for an Intel integrated graphics card (X3100) since I had heard Intel had good open source drivers. Recently, I tried to play with some GLSL (OpenGL Shading Language) programming, but was greeted with segfaults at every turn. I finally downloaded and ran the examples from the bottom of this page: http://www.lighthouse3d.com/opengl/glsl … glexample1
    Much to my surprise, they told me "No OpenGL 2.0 support" and "No GLSL support", respectively.
    I am using xf86-video-intel-2.2.0-2 and the "Driver" in my xorg.conf is "intel".
    Does anyone know anything about this? Am I out of luck hardware wise, or is this just a driver thing? Is support coming anytime soon? Am I using the wrong driver?
    Thanks,
    Jeremy

    The GMA X3100 really doesn't have OpenGL 2.0 support, only OpenGL 1.5 support.
    See here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_GMA# … d_chipsets
    I really don't know if the GLSL support can be implemented by the driver without OpenGL 2.0 hardware support.
