No display after nvidia driver install [SOLVED!]

Hi guys,
Just set up my first install of Arch and I'm loving it. Just I have one Problem; I installed the Nvidia drivers as per the wiki for my nvidia 6800gt, but after changing my driver from "nv" to "nvidia" I no longer get any visual feedback from x; "Sync out of range" is shown on my monitor.
When I try to run glxgears I get the following error:
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
glxgears: Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual.
The thing is, I load GLX and double buffer visual in my xorg.conf file.
I am using the 2.6.10 kernel on an Athlon 64, msi k8t neo board.
Thanks in Advance

Hey, by the way, for that 'glxgears' error you mentioned above, I forgot about this.  Read the bottom part.
Could that be part of the problem?  Are you using composite extension?
* Personally, I removed any instance of multiple "Device" listings (like 'VGA') in mine and modified the "Server Layout" Section, as shown below.
Here are relevant (Section) snipets from my 'xorg.conf', if it helps:
Section "Module"
# This loads the DBE extension module.
Load "dbe" # Double buffer extension
# This loads the miscellaneous extensions module, and disables
# initialisation of the XFree86-DGA extension within that module.

EndSubSection

  • [Solved] Display manager failing after Nvidia driver install

    I installed Nvidia-304xx drivers from the website due to which xorg stopped working. I fixed it by following the wiki by installing bumblebee and using intel graphics for screen.
    However now when I boot I am getting an error saying "Oh no something has gone wrong. A problem has occoured and the system can't recover"
    Please help.
    Note: I am using 64 bit system

  • Windows 7 Won't Boot After Nvidia Driver Installed, MSI Gaming N770

    Hi I just bought the MSI Gaming N770 2gb and after installing the nvidia drivers, Windows 7 will not boot after my motherboard POSTs. 
    I bought this to replace an AMD card.  I uninstalled all the AMD drivers before putting in the MSI card.  I've also run the Display Driver Uninstaller in Safe Mode and everything.
    After a few hours of research, I finally came across a thread about flashing a vbios, and something about these cards not working with motherboards with UEFI bios. 
    I'm using a P8Z77-I Deluxe mini-itx board, with a Rosewill 630W psu. 
    I have both 6+2 PCI pins plugged into the two 8pin power ports on the GPU.
    Is this an issue that can be fixed with turning off secure boot? or by flashing a vbios onto the card? Or is the card a dud? Or do I have to re-install Windows. 
    If the vbios is required, are there instructions on how to flash it? I have no idea how to flash a BIOS.  Thank you!!

    Had to update BIOS. All fixed!!!! 

  • Bootcamp 'Glowing' windows logo freeze after gfx driver install

    Bootcamp 'Glowing' windows logo freeze after gfx driver install
    Last week suddenly, after having changed or installed nothing, trying to boot into windows resulted in a frozen glowy window logo 'Starting Windows', which resulted in having to format the windows partition.
    Since then I've found out that I can do everything except install gfx drivers.
    I've installed firefox, all bootcamp drivers except gfx, swtor (doesn't run of course, but installs fine), quicktime, rebooting is fine after all this...
    But as soon as I install any kind of graphics driver and reboot, it freezes at the glowy window logo.
    I have tried;
    The bootcamp included gfx driver
    Windows Update included gfx driver
    Official nVidia latest beta driver
    Official nVidia latest whql driver
    Official nVidia oldest whql driver
    nVidia Cuda driver, both versions
    All give the same result
    I have formatted the entire harddrive and written zeros and made the windows partition in a physically different location to make sure it's not a harddrive issue, no luck.
    I have tried both Windows 7 x86 and x64 with matching drivers, same results.
    Tried booting with no devices attached, no luck.
    This all seems to me like a bust gfx card, were it not that under Lion everything works fine, even gaming (WoW).
    Techtool Pro's test machine shows no errors.
    My machine is a;
    iMac
    24-inch, Early 2008
    Processor  3,06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    Geheugen  4 GB 800 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
    Videokaart  NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GS 512 MB

    I am running Lion on a Mac Mini Server wherein I placed a Bootcamp partition and installed Windows 7 Ultimate. I've been testing Windows Media Center using a CableCard Tuner installed in a SiliconDust HomeRun box.
    All was well until I received a Windows notification of an NVIDIA driver update. After the update, I now freeze at the same point that you do in the Windows startup splash screen.
    I rolled back the driver using the Windows control panel associated with the device. Still freezes.
    Windows repair does not have a fix. I can't get windows to start in "safe mode" so I can remove the additional apps that NVIDIA installed during the update.
    I'm certain the freeze is associated with the NVIDIA driver.

  • Airport Extreme will not show USB drive installed Solved!

    Airport Extreme will not show USB drive installed Solved... At least for me!
    Here's what I had to do to make it work with the newest 7.3.1 firmware.
    Ready for this? No Joke Really!
    1. Connect your USB drive to the Airport Extreme.
    2. Turn it on.
    3. Open the Airport Utility.
    4. Go to Manual Setup.
    5. Choose Disks and File Sharing.
    Yep, we are going to set file sharing before we even see the disk we want to share!
    You (I) had to set File Sharing on and Share Disks over Ethernet checked as well as set the Work Group (In my case). THEN restart the Airport Extreme.
    After it re-started... My USB Drive was now present and ready for use.
    I also dis-allowed Guest access. I re-started ALL computers in my network, both Windows and MAC. The USB drive held and works GREAT!
    I know... Most of you thought this was a joke, It's not!
    I tried everything to get the USB drive to work and failed every time just like most other people. Doing it this way worked like a charm.
    Go Figure huh!
    Hope this helps someone with this issue.

    How was the usb hard drive formatted? Was it NTFS, FAT32, or HFS+?

  • [SOLVED] Problem with nvidia driver install/uninstall

    A while ago I installed the 177.70 driver from nvidia's site, then I was trying to install the 177.80 and to remove the .70 first, I tried
    sh NVIDIA-filename.177.70.run --uninstall
    And the installer told me no nvidia driver was found. I haven't been able to install a newer driver since every time I tried X would give me a driver mismatch error on start-up. I am hesitant to manually remove any files, how would I fully get rid of 177.70 so I can install a newer one??
    TIA
    Last edited by colbert (2008-12-05 02:58:10)

    See script for the command you should be running:
    sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-180.11-pkg1.run -a -q -s -N --no-opengl-headers
    Assuming you're on 32-bit. To let Nvidia's installer sort out your mess.

  • Nvidia Driver install problem after new kernel

    i recentyl updated my kernel to 2.4.22 and added bootsplash support.. that works perfectly and the kernel works good.. except i have to rei stgall the nvidia driver.. but it gives me an errror that it cannot find kernel header file sources.. i made the package in /usr/abs/kernels/kernel did makepkg.. it made it find and it has a pkg/src directory.. i copied the src of the kernel to /usr/src/linux so theres /usr/src/linux/2.4.22 but it still will not work and cannot make the module and load it.. still gives methat i tcannot find kernel header files... any help would be great
    -bolero

    well you should have the headers if you used makepkg to rebuild your kernel as part of the pacakge creates a /usr/src/linux directory that holds all necessary headers.
    if you did not use makepkg to build you kernel then you obviously did not create a /usr/src/linux directory (you do this by untarring the kernel source in /usr/src than symlinking the untarred source directory (linux-2.4.22 in your case) to linux (ln -s linux-2.4.22 linux).

  • Cannot load nvidia driver module [SOLVED]

    OK so for some reason I can no longer load the nvidia (proprietary) driver.
    I have a laptop with optimus, on board intel and discrete nvidia GTX680M. I use this laptop for cuda development so I don't care about games etc, I just need the driver loaded to debug and run my cuda  apps. bbswitch still works fine as does bumblebee which I don't use normally but I do have it setup and running in case. Also I didn't really work much on coding last week so not sure exactly when this started.
    So here is what happens when I try to insert the nvidia module or use optirun:
    $ sudo modprobe nvidia
    modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'nvidia': No such device
    $ sudo insmod nvidia
    insmod: ERROR: could not load module nvidia: No such file or directory

    So in simple terms, the fix invovled ensuring the nvidia module is loaded before the bbswitch module. I'm not sure about the necessity of the things that follow but the fix may possibly also require removing bumblebee and possibly requires removing nvidia from repos and building the driver downloaded from nvidia.
    This fix could be completely unrelated to the problems I was having with arch but I cannot verify the fix on arch specifically cos I installed every distro under the sun trying to get it all working and I got it to work on a non arch distro.
    So... I'm not sure if I should really mark this a solved because I haven't/can't verify it on arch and technically the solution involved changing to another distro but in fact, I know it has absolutely nothing to do with arch since I saw the same behaviour on 3 other distros. If I have time, I will reinstall arch and verify but for the moment, I have a lot of work to catch up on now that I have a working nvidia driver I can actually use for dev
    Anyway, what I think is going on is there is some bizarre issue with bbswitch that stops the nvidia driver from being found because on the current distro I have installed, if I have no bbswitch, no bumblebee and no nvidia modules loaded or services running etc. I can modprobe the nvidia driver and all works fine. I can then modprobe the bbswitch driver and that works too. IF I modprobe the bbswitch driver first and then modprobe the nvidia driver, I get this error that says the nvidia module cant be found. The location it prints is in some updates directory whcih is odd too because I installed from nvidia source and never installed updates at all and made sure that there were absolutely no repo nvidia drivers or updates etc.

  • No display after hard drive replacement

    I'm working on an Intel Core 2 Duo iMac (late 2006) that sustained a bit of a fall (enough to crack the corner of the front bezel and kill the hard drive).
    While diagnosing the problem, I could successfully boot the computer from an OS X disc, or even from my homebrew Triage drive (just Snow Leopard loaded with utilities) with no problems. I ran a full diagnostic test with Tech Tool Pro to ensure the SDRAM and Video RAM weren't causing any issues. Apple and 3rd party disc utilities all reported hardware errors from the hard drive if I attempted any kind of recovery though. So I replaced the internal drive per instructions in an online tutorial, being very careful not to cause any ESD damage during the process.
    I ensured that every cable was securely connected and everything was back in its right place, and tried to power on... There was no chime, and no display (even if connected to a known good external), but the hard drive, fans, and optical drive all spin up and the power light still comes on.
    I have tried resetting the System Management Controller, along with the PRAM/NVRAM. I've read and seen some articles about resetting the Power Management Unit on some other models, but I'm not sure that my model makes that an option or not. Oh, and I even removed the drive, installed OS 10.6, and reconnected it just in case it was an issue with recognizing that the drive was useable.
    Any ideas on how I could get this running again without a trip to the genius bar and a shot to the wallet?

    Wow... I guess there must have been some connection loose somewhere. I had checked to make sure every cable was secured several times already, but after your last question I decided to do it again, as well as disconnect/reconnect the two cables that run to the lcd, and the SATA power connector (the end that seems like it shouldn't even be removed from the motherboard, which I think was actually a bad idea) just in case I had managed to loosen it.
    I also pulled a piece of black tape off of the 3 diagnostic LEDs that I had heard of, but couldn't seem to find, to see what they might be able to tell me... but it looks like I won't need them now!
    Problem solved. Thanks Ralph! Lesson learned: don't put too much trust in my own ability to reconnect everything properly, no matter how careful I was or how many times I've done it before.

  • Black Screen On Boot After Nvidia Driver

    I just installed arch and went to install my nvidia driver right afterwards. I now boot up and after grub i get a black screen. I am 99 percent sure i know what this problem is and i have had somthing similar with gentoo. I have a sandybridge so i have my nvidia card and the intel hd graphics. i remember in gentoo i had to go in the kernel config and disable intel hd graphics . i dont know how i would go about doing this here as i am new . i really dont want a custom kernel.

    SEMI-SOlVED
    if you have a sandybridge motherboard and have intel hd graphics on in your bios (Lucid). after the nvidia driver is installed  udev seems to pick up the intel card at boot. Blacklist i915 and intel_agp to fix this problem.
    what loads those modules udev? mkinitcpio? is there any way to have them both? like choice your primary video card? im sure if i had two monitors i would be able to boot up with the one pluged in to intel graphics and when X loads xinerma would work with both. i dont have dual monitors but it still would be nice to have an option. is there any sandybridge features in linux?
    Thank You

  • Error message (GT8500- WindowsXP) "affichage defect" because NVIDIA driver (installed 340.52 updated), but 8500GT/PCIe/SSE2 3.3.0 required by Adobe Premiere 10 message ?? What is the problem ? Thank you for help.

    Pourquoi ce message, car le driver de la carte Nvidia GT8500 est à jour !

    fclau
    There is a known major issue with Premiere Elements 10 on a computer that uses a NVIDIA GeForce video card/graphics card. The answer is to roll back the driver version to about May 2013. You do not want an up to date driver in this case. For some computer operating systems like Windows 8 or 8.1 64 bit, this roll back fix is not possible because the video card/graphics card driver versions available do not go back far enough.
    This matter has been written about extensively in this forum for over a year. And, there is an Announcement about this matter at the top of this forum.
    Also see
    ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE10: NVIDIA Video Card Driver Roll Back
    and
    NVIDIA Driver Downloads - Advanced Search
    which will help you identify the driver version and download/install it.
    According to what you wrote and assuming that your Windows XP is SP3 32 bit, your NVIDIA drivers page should look like this after you plug in your data.
    And based on history, your choice in the above should be GeForce 320.18 Driver    320.18 May 23, 2013.
    Please review and consider. And, then let us know if we have interpreted your information correctly.
    Thank you.

  • Cannot back up with Time Machine/Capsule after new drive installed in MacBook Pro

    MacBook Pro 2.53 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo running 10.8.5.
    I just had a larger hard drive installed by Tekserve. This is to be my first back up since installing the new drive. I have 2 back ups: one to my Time Capsule via WiFi, the other to an external Le Cie via USB.
    Time Machine just gives me preparing to backup but goes no further, just stuck in that mode. I suspect that it can't find my old drive, which it backed up till now. But I cannot find a way to correct this possible snafu. I do not see an option in Preferences.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks

    Just so we are clear.. were your files all recovered from backup after the install of the disk?? Did you supply one of the backups to the company who did the installation so they could do the recovery?
    You do want to be careful not to damage the old backup.. it might really be better to start over a clean new backup.
    TM should be reset. It sounds like they did recover your settings.. Please check Pondini here.
    A4 http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
    Also use A1 to check what the log is saying about TM.. the old backup will need to be fully indexed and checked if you intend to keep using it.. and that will take several hours to the TC if you use wireless.. The problem people expect fast starts but that is not possible unless you are doing a new backup.
    You can also check some of the other help files there eg D1 long preparing for why that happens.

  • Mac Pro refuses to boot after new drive instalation...

    Hi
    Could anyone shed a bit of light on my problem - Ive just got a new 500gb seagate drive, - when I load it up in order to format, im faced with a blank screen, and os x refuses to even think about booting up - there is also an odd click which Im guessing is the boot drive trying to start.
    The new drive slots into place fine, and I made sure I was earthed out before touching it...
    When the new drive is taken out, the system starts up without a hitch.
    Do I have a duff drive? - or am I missing something blindingly obvious?
    Thanks for any help
    Maxine.

    Hi,
    Funny that I saw this message, I am the person that had the exact same problem on the 20th of December.
    After trying to install the HD, I had the problem as well. I ended up taking the computer in to my local Apple store, and they kept the Mac Pro.
    It is now January 5th and I still do not have the system. Called them an hour ago and they said that the part (they didn't mention what it was) was on BACKORDER, so they had to decide if they were going to wait for the part or give me a brand new system. Hmmmm.... Could this be a NEW hidden problem for the Mac Pro now?
    I wanted to purchase an iMac, but was afraid of the lock-up issues. I am starting to regreat my choice and wish I had got an iMac, at least I would have some kind of file server for my network
    All I can suggest is to take it in to your local Apple store and let them check it, and then ask if they could fix it right then, or you two could have a system that's not able to be workable.

  • Possibly stupid question re: nvidia driver install

    Hi there. I was wondering... Is it possible to install the nvidia driver without compiling the kernel? I don't want to repartition my drive to give Arch the space it would need to do that, and even if I had the space I'd rather not have to waste time compiling.
    As a side curiousity, if I do indeed need to rebuild the kernel, can anyone explain why I need to? It seems to me that if whoever compiled it in the first place included the sources they used, and if they made a copy available, it would avoid a lot of hassle. Am I wrong?
    Thanks in advance.

    Just wanted to debate. If you fetched the kernel source, you should have a look inside its readme. There is a strong warning not to link your source to linux. Instead, give your nvidia installer the option where to find the source.

  • NVIDIA Tesla C2075 Disappeared after nvidia driver update

    Hi,
    I have 2 NVIDIA cards, the primary is NVIDIA GTS 450 and the secondary is Tesla C2075.
    After upgrading
    linux 3.6.9 => linux 3.7.9-2
    nvidia 310 => nvidia 313.18-3
    nvidia-utils 310 => nvidia-utils 313.18-1
    opencl-nvidia 310 => opencl-nvidia 313.18-1
    The cudaGetDeviceCount function in CUDA didn't recognize Tesla C2075,
    and cudaGetDeviceProperties couldn't find it as well.
    Strangely enough, Tesla C2075 still shows up in nvidia-smi and nvidia-settings,
    and some programs using opencl-nvidia interface could recognize Tesla C2075 as well,
    the problem is only with CUDA programs....
    I tried reinstalling cuda5 and recompiling the binaries,
    switching the Tesla C2075 to the primary video card,
    but they didn't make any difference.
    Any idea on how this could happen?
    Now I just down-graded nvidia driver and Tesla C2075 shows up in CUDA programs again....
    Thanks.
