Matrox g200 Video Card, mga driver not working in Xorg7

Hello! This is my first post in the forum...greetings everyone!
So I'm trying to get a Matrox g200 Video Card working -- but I get an error mga_hal module missing...
I've done a few searches and come up basically empty. I have seen from another user on this forum that I can use the Vesa driver...just wondering if anyone's found a soloution to using this card under xorg7...?
I tried installing the driver from their site...however, it detects that I'm running xorg7 and refuses to install...
Any ideas? Surely someone has already been down this road...
Thanks
nedson

I got the probelm worked out ---
but still getting an mga_hal error which i'm going to ignore :-).
Thanks!

Mac Pro Locked Up and Now One Video Card and Audio Not Working

Last night, my Mac Pro totally locked up to the point I had to power it off to get it to do anything. When restarted, one of my video cards and my audio are no longer working. I have dual monitors so tried switching the connections to see if it was the monitor and that was not the problem.
I tried doing a formal shutdown after the restart and this also did not clear up my problem.
Everything was working fine prior to the lockup. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

If you've added RAM and are using the nVidia 9400m video driver, you may be using incompatible RAM

Jabber 4.4 "Graphics card or driver not supported" error on one machine but not another.

Hi, I looked at the KB document but the email link on it no longer works.
I have two end-users using Jabber 4.4 on identical machines, same specs, same driver build and OS image. One gets the "Graphics card or driver not supported" error, the other does not.
We have two DellOptiPlex 7010's,
Both had 2 instances of AMD Radeon HD 7470 - they are dual monitor machines.
In both cases the driver version 8.922.0.0, Driver Date 12/6/2011. This is the latest Dell has on their website.
On one machine when I run a fresh install for Jabber for TelePresence 4.4 it works fine. But on another the user first gets
"supportabilitytest.exe has stopped working
A oriblem cause the program to stop working correctly. Please close the program."
Then when that's closed out we get:
"Graphics card or driver not supported!
New features in this version of Jabber Video are not supported by your computer's graphics driver.
Update to the newest graphics driver available and run Jabber Video again."
I can't believe it's just a matter of upgrading the drivers because in this case one machine with identical drivers works.
I appreciate any insights, thanks !

Hi ksouthall,
It sounds like the openGL supported version did not install on the one that is failing. There isn't much we can do regarding that error. Best practice is to always upgrade to the latest manufacturer's available driver. Client requirements are below.
Windows 7 (32-bit or 64-bit), Vista, or XP (SP 2 or newer), with OpenGL 1.2 or newer.
For 720p HD video calls, Intel Core2Duo @ 1.2GHz or better.
For VGA video calls, Intel Atom @ 1.6GHz or better.
Webcam, built-in or external. You need an HD webcam if you want other callers to see you in HD.
Broadband Internet connection with a recommended bandwidth of 768kbps upstream and downstream. You need about 1.2Mbps upstream and downstream for 720p HD video calls.
Regards,
Jason

Will this video card and power supply work on my computer? HP Pavilion p6213w Desktop PC

I have a HP Pavilion p6213w Desktop PC, will this video card and power supply work on my computer?
Video Card: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=8379339&sku=A455-0760
Power Supply: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=4668507&sku=C13-2511
Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks.

It is unlikely that the power supply will fit/work in your HP Pavilion p6213w Desktop Computer. Please consider the Corsiar CX500, CX500M, CX600, and CX600M for your power supply needs. These power supplies are the same physical size as the factory unit and are known to fit and work in most HP full-sized consumer desktop computers.
There is a chance that the GTX 760 and other current generation video cards may not work in your computer. These newer cards typically require the computer to support the most current UEFI standards and many motherboards don't meet this criteria. Please know the return policy on any video card you purchase, in case it doesn't work. If the GTX 760 doesn't work, consider the GTX 650/660 Ti or equivalent AMD graphics card for your graphics card needs.
If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

Satellite C850-B635 and Win7 - card reader is not working

My notebook came with windows 8 and the card reader was working
but I installed windows 7 64-bit , downloaded all required drivers to my notebook , but the card reader is not working now .
I downloaded a driver called card reader controller but it didn't work as well
I don't know if there is a problem or there is a driver that I should install and I don't know .
please help me solving that problem .
In my windows device manager these devices isn't recognized :
*PCI simple communications controller
*SM Bus Controller
*Unknown Device
I tried to search in my drivers download page in Toshiba website but couldn't find these
please help me making my card reader working again.
Regards

To me the case is simple and the reason why the SD card reader does not work is that an compatible driver isnt installed.
My theory seems to be correct since the SM bus controller and PCI simple communications controller appear in the device manager and I guess one of these devices belongs to the SD card reader/controller.
I think you should simply install this Realtek Card Reader Controller which I found on the Toshiba EU driver page
http://support1.toshiba-tro.de/tedd-files2/0/carc-20130924161048.zip
Furthermore you should install all other Win 7 drivers as well as Toshiba tools available for Satellite C850 series.
Very important is the chipset driver, USB 3.0 driver (Win 7 needs this driver to control the USB 3.0 port), display driver. etc
Not very essential tools are Bulletin Board, Online Product information, Reeltime, etc such additional tools dont improved the notebook performance so its up to you if you want to use these software parts

Installed Photoshop Elements. Card Reader still not working.

Installed Photoshop Elements. Card Reader still not Working.

And what does any of that have to do with Adobe software? You better check your hardware setup and install the proper driver for whatever card reader you use...

T420 Base System Device Driver not working W7

Hello,
After reinstalling W7 the lenovo solution center was complaining saying that the System Device Driver is not working.
I saw that the SD card reader was not working neither so I assumend the missing driver was that one.
From the Lenovo page I dowloaded the driver for the Multi Card port for W7 and T420. After installing it the message dissapeared and the SD cards were recognized properly.
However, after rebooting the system, after a while, the mesage appeared again and the card reader stopped working.
I did install it again and the same happened. It was working and after two reboots stopped working.
If find this quite misterious. I wonder If anyone knows how to fix this.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi Zardoz,
Welcome to Lenovo Community!
As per your query we understood that you are facing the issue with SD card reader on ThinkPad T420.
This kind of issue will occurs if there is any issue with drivers, hence I suggest you to uninstall the recent installed card reader driver from your system through Control panel – Program & feature option and restart the system.
After restarting the system please download & install ThinkVantage system update utility from Lenovo support site, after the installation run the program so that it will search for all the required drivers and application for your system.
Below is the link to enter the downloads page and download latest application accordingly, please click on "Select Product" then in "QUICK PATH" enter the MTM no. select the exact model.

Hope this helps!

Does aperture require a dedicated video card? If not a requirement? does it improve the performance of aperture?

Does aperture require a dedicated video card? If not a requirement? does it improve the performance of aperture?

Aperture can work with integrated video, but the consensus here is that Aperture is fairly demanding when it comes to graphics cards, as it relies on them for various processes. So, if you have the option to get a machine with a dedicated video chipset, do so.

Card slot does not work after update (14/10/2011)

Card slot does not work after yesterday update (14/10/2011)! It works with my SD card month ago, but now it dosn't!!!
MacBook Pro 13 OS ver. 10.6.8

Thanks for your suggestion. I downloaded OnyX and ran the cleaning function. After restarting, I opened Help and once again the first screen appeared fine. But again most of the links did not work, though those under the "What's New" heading did work. I might add that I had previously tried a variety of suggestions posted in another thread, which included deleting from the caches folder in Home>Library several files such as com.apple.helpui and help.plist in the Preferences folder. (As noted in my previous post this evening, I also created another user but that also did not have any effect.) Any other ideas? Thanks

If the problem persists, you'll probably have to make another apple id, it wont take off any games or music or apps or anything you've bought it will all stay there, i have two apple id's and i don't have a problem with anything.

Hello,
A wild guess, given the lack of details:
I wonder whether it would violate the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Same-origin_policy ?
This is part of the security infrastructure.
"Stealing" content to insert it anywhere else might also violate copyrights?
Technically, does it at least work "on premises" onto WLS 10.3.6?

Dvd drive not worked properly

i have hp pavilion dv4 series.my dvd drive not worked properly.for that purpose only i went 7 times in your service centre but they won't take action till now .why u people do like this .i want explation and just change my dvd drive that's all.

tcrite,
Sounds like a bad drive...I would get a replacement. According to Accelerate Your Mac database, it should work without issue.
Just enter the model number of the drive and select your Powerbook G3 2000, and you will see four reports on this model.
