Nvidia 8400GS Dualhead: KDE Compositing
Hello,
maybe somebody can help me:
I have to monitors connected to my Nvdida Geforce 8400 GS. The actual driver nvidia ist installed (nvidia 256.35-1).
I am not able to activate the KDE compositing effects when having both monitors connected. In another forum I've read, that Xinerama must be deactivated to use compositing with the nvidia driver and dual monitor setup.
So I deactivated Xinerama and activated TwinVIew instead. This works so far, but the right monitor (resolution 1024x768, connected to the VGA-port) is virtually placed left to the other monitor (1680x1050, connected to the DVI-port). This is annoying because the mouse has to be moved to the left side of the left monitor to get to the right monitor.
If I try to change this in the ServerLayout-Section of my 20-nvidia.conf, it has no effect. If I change Screen 1 to Screen 0, X won't start.
Here is my actual 20-nvidia.conf:
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "DualSreen"
Screen 0 "Screen0"
Screen 1 "Screen1" RightOf "Screen0"
Option "Xinerama" "0"
EndSection

EndSubSection
EndSection
Can someone tell me whats wrong with this?
Greetings

Hello Knute, thank for your adivise. Unfortunately I tried this before and it does not work, the monitors behave just the same.

Nvidia: video tearing when compositing is enabled
Hi all,
I have a very persistent problem which affects many people apparently, but after extensive searching I haven't found a conclusive fix that works for me. I have a nice Nvidia GeForce GTX 660 Ti graphics card, and I'm using the proprietary Nvidia driver (I'm using the latest version available in the official repositories).
My desktop environment is KDE 4, and with compositing enabled (and I do want compositing enabled), the top third of my screen suffers significant tearing when there's movement, whether that be moving windows around, playing videos in mplayer, VLC or Chromium, or playing 3D games (fullscreen 3D games I've tested don't even seem to work with compositing disabled, fyi).
In nvidia-settings, I've set the resolution and frequency of my monitor to 1680x1050 and 60Hz manually, instead of just using 'Auto' for those settings. 'Sync to VBlank' and 'Allow Flipping' are checked in the OpenGL Settings section, and the 'Image Settings' slider is set to 'High Performance'. My PowerMizer settings are set to 'Prefer Maximum Performance' for obvious reasons, but this doesn't stay set when I reboot (even with a custom line in xorg.conf added).
This tearing is incredibly frustrating, and annoyingly I'm sure Nvidia could have fixed it by now. The issue has been discussed on forums Internet-wide for at least three years now.
Anyway, have my xorg.conf, if it's any help. The line with 'PowerMizer' in it was found on some other forum, and it's intended to keep my PowerMizer settings on maximum performance, but that doesn't happen either. You can also see that I have TripleBuffer enabled.

The history of this issue means there's unlikely to be a comprehensive fix any time soon, but I'm really hoping. This is driving me closer and closer to Windows.

My experience (with nvidia, vdpau, composite, vsync, tearing and all that crap) is that the window manager must support un-redirecting fullscreen windows AND vsync. If the (compositing) WM doesn't support vsync then even un-redirected windows are not vsync'ed and you get tearing (nvidia settings make no difference).
For example, when I was using the xfce window manager (which supports un-redirecting fullscreen windows but not vsync) I still got tearing. It was only when I switched to compiz (with vsync and un-redirect FS-windows enabled) that I could get tearing free video.
I have also found that, for smooth video playback, refresh rates do matter. This has something to do with inter-frame modulation that the video player has to do, because it has to compensate for the difference between the frame rate of the video and the refresh rate of the display. So - If you get micro stuttering (slow moving scenes do not appear like moving smooth) try switching your display refresh rates (try something like 50Hz, 59Hz and 60Hz).
Currently I happily use gnome 3 with CLUTTER_PAINT=disable-clipped-redraws:disable-culling in /etc/environment and mplayer2 with vdpau for tearing free video. I use a script to quickly switch monitor refresh rates (since gnome doesn"t allow me to switch refresh rates - they probably never watch videos...).
Edit: I use nvidia's High Quality settings and the adaptive (default) powermizer. Also, triple buffering is not needed for smooth video playback and it adds input latency on a vsynced composite desktop.
With undirected fullscreen windows enabled the compositor's vsync support is irrelevant, because the whole purpose of that option is to allow the window to completely bypass the compositor. At that point it is down to the driver and the video players opengl implementation. If the compositor's vsync works properly with your driver then you don't want undirected fullscreen windows enabled for your video players anyway.

Arch64 + Nvidia 9500M GS + Metacity + compositing problems?
Hello All,
Is anyone else experienciing problems with the above combination? (Metacity compositing, not compiz!) I turned on metacity compositing and I experienced terrible lag and high cpu utilization. Disabling metacity compositing fixes the problems.
I am not sure if it indeed affected the situation but I experienced the high cpu utilization while running firefox 3 beta 5.I already tried using the pkg1 version, but the same thing happened. now, this time i tried compiling it with the correct nvidia-utils version. but still the same thing hapened. Ill attach my PKGBUILDS.
PKGBUILD nvidia
PKGBUILD nvidia-utils
btw: nvidia-utils complied just fine.
2nd Edit:
I saw this error on the compiling screen.
test -e include/linux/autoconf.h -a -e include/config/auto.conf || ( \
echo; \
echo " ERROR: Kernel configuration is invalid."; \
echo " include/linux/autoconf.h or include/config/auto.conf are missing."; \
echo " Run 'make oldconfig && make prepare' on kernel src to fix it."; \
echo; \
/bin/false)
ok, I've tried running "make oldconfig && make prepare" but "make prepare" fails with the following:
bash-3.2# make prepare
CHK include/linux/version.h
CHK include/linux/utsrelease.h
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `missing-syscalls'. Stop.
make: *** [prepare0] Error 2
do you mind, running it again to check if that happens to you?. Thank you

Kde compositing conflicts with wine popup menu
The following happens on two different systems with different nvidia proprietary driver versions.
No matter if compositing is done with xrender or opengl, popup/dropdown menu appears strangely (broken, mangled)
http://youtu.be/yveuW1lRIls
Is this a known problem/does anyone have a workaround? Google didnt help.
thanks!

Catalyst and KDE Compositing Problem
Hi,
I'm new to Arch and just installed it using the chakra-livecd.
I've had some issues with fglrx, but after installing the newest version from kensais repo + the patched xorg-server from AUR it works.
Dmesg gets spammed with this error:
[fglrx:firegl_find_any_map] *ERROR* Invalid map handle!<3>[fglrx:drm_vm_close] *ERROR* map not found -> inconsistent kernel data!!! vma_start:0x7fa230d2b000,handle:0xe7532000
I've stopped getting them logged with the help of this post: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php? … 25#p571625
Is there any way to get those errors out of dmesg, or to completly fix them?
As for my KDE problem:
I only have the thumbnails in Cover Switch.
Present Windows, Taskbar, and the Desktop Grid don't show any thumbnails (black/grey boxes).
thanks for your timeJust checked the output of "kwin --replace"
Another Error-Spam \o/
kwin(2779) KWin::checkGLError: GL error ( PostPaint ): 0x "500"
/edit: Hooray, renaming ~/.kde4/share/config/kwinrc and restartin kwin fixed my KDE problem.
/edit2: Just downgraded to 2.6.28, modified catalyst from AUR (dependencies to 2.6.28 and removing .29 Patch), and my dmesg is clear \o/
So far I had to modify the PKGBUILD for my X-Fi (PCIe Versions need patching, i guess i should drop a comment at the ctxfi package) and catalyst. I expected this to be quite hard for me, but using yaourt and reading the PKGBUILDS was enough.

Hi all, I'm having issues with my Nvidia 8400gs card on my up2date arch system. Im using Gnome 3.4 (fallback mode, ie not gnome-shell) and xorg-server 1.12.1-1
Using Nouveau drivers everything works like a charm except blender, which crashes from time to time.
I would love it if I could stick to nouveau! but from what I read its not recommended for intensive blender use
so im trying nvidia's closed drivers
but...
Using the propietary nvidia driver (nvidia 295.49-1 and nvidia-beta 302.07-1) I can work flawlessly in blender, except that Blender freezes for a few seconds when closing it. Some times its a few seconds, and sometimes I have to reboot because it takes so long.
After the "freezing" i see this in Xorg.0.log:
(EE) NVIDIA(0): Error recovery failed.
(EE) NVIDIA(0): *** Aborting ***
this happens with both LTS kernel (linux-3.0.31-1-lts) and linux-3.3.5-1
so, I've been trying the nvidia-275xxx driver but i see that not supported by Xorg anymore.
Xorg.0.log

I hope I dont have to downgrade X to make blender work!

Thanks for that!
OK, I've made some progress, or actually "regresions"
I've found this topic https://bbs.archlinux.org/post.php?tid=136030 where the workaround is downgrading to nvidia-285.xx
I had to try a couple of combinations and finally made nividia-285work, sort of . The issue while closing blender seems to have gone, but I messed something with xorg or gnome since I'm getting an error in gdm login (i'm trying to find out the error) and the all windows decorations are gone. And had a complete crash once (reset button only option)
will keep on searching...
update:
this combination seems to work!
nvidia 285.05.09-3
linux 3.1.9-2
xorg-server 1.10.4-1
xf86-input-evdev 2.6.0-3

[SOLVED] nVidia driver 195.36.08 causes KDE4.4 to crash after logging?
Hi to all Archers
I noticed the new nVidia driver (195.36.08) on pacman's yesterday updates, I didn't update it immediately and preferred to wait until I was available to fiddle with it in case things went wrong. Apparently, that was the case
Here's what happens if I install the new driver:
KDM starts as usual, I login in, I see KDE loading progress and before it finishes, boom it crashes and returns to KDM login once again.
I tried reinstalling KDE, Xorg and read nVidia wiki to see if there is any hints. I tried once again with a new stock xorg.conf, and removed .nvidia-settings-rc and even disabled KDE compositing but all this couldn't help getting KDE up and running.
However, when I reinstall the previous version (190.53) everything is back to normal.
So what I want to know is am I the only one who gets this problem or there're others here having the same issue?
Because the first time I installed the nVidia driver (almost 3 months now) I used their own installer then used Arch packages afterwards, I suspect that perhaps their installer messed things up !?
For now the solution is to stick to the previous version.
I'm using Arch Linux 32bit and my GC is an nVidia 7300GT.
Regards,
Med

I want to install the 190.53 version of nvidia driver, because it's the correct driver version for my video card, according to nvidia site (see http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_disp … 0.53.html).
Also, in my prevoius arch system I installed that version and everything worked well. I don't want to try the newerr version. It doesn't matter if 190.53 are not the latest driver available. I'm self confident with the 190.53 version.
How can I install them? The problem is that pacman suggest me only the latest version :-(
You'll find them here http://schlunix.org/archlinux/extra/os/ after choose your system architecture.
if you want to know more about downgrading for more than a few packages read this guide http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dow … g_Packages
Assuming you have a recent nvidia graphic card and using a i686 system you should download these:

NVidia PowerMizer issue after suspend
Hello,
my NVidia GeForce 9800 GT just runs fine on Arch. It normally runs in some kind of low power mode with reduced clock frequencies, however when the computer wakes up from suspend, it starts running at full speed until the X server is restarted. nvidia-settings still reports adaptive clocking as enabled, and there is no active OpenGL application that would need that much of power (disabling KDE compositing does not help either). I've got CoolBits enabled to adjust the low power mode's clock frequencies in a way that the GPU can handle compositing with reasonable performance (it is too slow per default), yet disabling it has no effect on the issue.
I'm using latest 295.40 driver, latest X server and the normal Arch kernel 3.3.2.
Any ideas?thepasto wrote:

Thanks, this helped me out. I knew the workaround probably involved systemd but I've yet to dive into how it works. -
KDE never finish to start after pacman -Syu [SOLVED]
Hi to All.
I have upgraded my system with pacman -Syu (I have to upgrade first broadcom-wl).
after upgrading to new kernel, I reinstalled pacman and nvidia and nvidia-utils
started kde and it begins to start session, but 4 processs get full cpu and never ends the session init
the processes are kbuildsyscoca (2 processes), kded4 and kconf_update
If I start twm instead of kde it works
I readed the forums and althoug not seen something similar, decide to downgrade kernel, and recompile (reinstall broadcom-wl, and nvidia drivers)
then tested again and the same results.
last test was to move my .kde and .kde4 folders to a backup and start kde again (starting from startx and not kdm)
this time it launched a lot (more than 100 kconf_update trying to update some stuff of kopete)
then deinstalled kopete and all kde-meta packages that are not needed now, but still have the same problem,
the 4 processes keep running and the desktop never comes up. (black screen with cursor I can move)
anyone with similar sympthoms?
any thing I can try?
as a summary x seems to work fine (twm starts)
wireless works fine
nvidia works fine
only kde get stuck ant the init
any help appreciated.
Thanks

I will post here by parts as the post is too long
test with other user in my system and with root all fails with the same sympthoms
I attach here the logs of the following test done with another user (charo)
steps.
/etc/rc.d/kdm stop
rm /var/log/kdm.log
rm /var/log/xorg.o.mslog
rm /home/charo/.xsession-errors
rm -r /home/charo/.kde
rm -r /home/charo/.kde4
rm -r /tmp/kde-charo
rm -r /tmp/ksocket-charo
rm -r /var/tmp/kdecache-charo
so If I not forhet none, all stuff regarding kde for user charo is non existant
then started kdm
/etc/rc.d/kdm start
then login with user charo in a standard kde4 session
the splash screen comes up and only the 2 fisrt icons come up (between the first and the second almost 2 minutes passes), then the screen goes blue (default background), and a powerdevil error is shown, we can move the mouse, and clicking in the error it dissapear, but eh screen keeps blue without any data (icons, applets, panels, etc), no element is shown
here are the logs

look at times, I started at 20:57, then the server gets to a "final" status at 20:59 t -
Greetings everybody!
Being new to Arch my first post comes to address a minor nuisance, thats delaying start of KDE, shutting it down respectively.
Whats my issues?
After booting my system all those messages come up, "[DONE]" and such, and when KDM is supposed to start I am displayed a tty login for 5-10 secs. That tty is working, but no matter what, after that amount of time I am presented KDM, full working, that is after logging in I am entering KDE.
More or less the same goes for shutting down Arch from within KDE. Using the GUI there, the screen is greyish, and it takes rather long for actually shutting down KDE and showing me the tty messages (compared to Debian/Sid (aptosid), which is what I am used to).
Now I am wondering right about why there is that delay of being shown that tty instead of being given KDM at the start. And of course, why there is an (apparent) delay at shutting down KDE.
How did I install Arch?
I installed Arch using the basic netinstall release. I proceeded according to the wiki, installed X, proprietary nvidia driver and KDE. KDM I have included in my inittab.

I am used to seeing the boot messages and afterwards KDM starts instantly. Having to look at an empty tty login screen for a couple of seconds before KDM starts is unusual to me. Again, this is merely a nuisance, not preventing me to use Arch, not to say KDE, but if this behaviour is not normal, where could I start to look for, in order to improve startup time?
Now, when I want to shutdown my system after KDE-session using that GUI option in the K-menu, it takes like almost half a minute of grey out screen for I am finally displayed the tty messages. In case this is not normal I would assume that might be caused by the same issue?
Any other file I need to show to you?
I hope anyone of you can give me some helpful advices.

Not quite sure what you're thinking of here. If by 'that entry in inittab' you mean, the one I singled out for commenting, what that one does is start a login prompt on tty1, pure and simple. The line after that start a prompt on tty2, the one after that a prompt on tty3, etc. I can say for certain, that inittab doesn't care a bit whether you use umlauts, and I doubt (but again can't say for sure) that KDM has any special concern for umlauts or not. If you want to properly understand what happens in the inittab, I very much recommend the arch wiki article on inittab. The inittab syntax is actually pretty easy to understand, and the wiki article is good.

I thought I have all services tagged to run in background assuming I dont have to run them prominently? The services entered I think I chose carefully, that is I need them. Anything I am doing wrong there?
Again, not quite sure I follow. I am not suggesting that you do not use the services, merely that you do not run start them in the background. Let me quote the wiki:
If a script is prefixed with an "at" symbol (@), then it will be executed in the background, i.e. the startup sequence will not wait for successful completion before continuing.
This is only useful in some instances, e.g. if a daemon needs to wait for a network connection. If the whole system was to pause while waiting for that connection to complete that would a major nuissance. So you background it. In most cases though we're waiting for the harddisk and so 'backgrounding' has no benefit.
The point of my suggestion though was not to tell you whether to use the '@' or not in general but to suggest not using it, while you tested the hypothesis that it was the daemons/background services that was causing the wait - and not KDM. Once that test was over, you should of course feel free to start using the @'s again, if your so prefer.

[SOLVED] Power Management in KDE doesn't work
Hello world :-)
I just installed Arch and everything works well except for Power Management in KDE. The Power Management settings in System Settings are completely grayed out and provided with following message:
"Power Management configuration module could not be loaded. The Power Management Service appears not to be running. This can be solved by starting or scheduling it inside Startup and Shutdown."
However the Power Management service is already running and if I restart it I get the message:
"KDE Power Management System could not be initialized. The backend reported the following error: No valid Power Management backend plugins are available. A new installation might solve this problem. Please check your system configuration."
I have this problem since KDE installation, Power Management just never worked. After two days of googling I becoming a little bit desperate :-) Any idea what's wrong here?

Not sure about that. I installed upower but I don't know how to configure it or if any configuration is needed. If I understand official documentation correctly, upower daemon should be started automatically if some application needs it.

I have full KDE installation (# pacman -S kde-meta) so problem should be in my Arch installation, no in KDE itself. I have only installed Arch, Xorg, proprietary Nvidia drivers and KDE so far, so there is only small chance I break or messed up something - it's more likely something I didn't install yet or didn't know how to configure.

Getting Xorg running with a Nvidia 8400 GS
Hey,
I'm trying to get my old PC running with Archlinux but I'm having some problems with my graphic card which is a GeForce 8400 GS.
I installed Arch, did a complete system update and installed Xorg. Afterwards I tried to install my graphic card:
pacman -S nvidia-173xx nvidia-173xx-utils
nvidia-xconfig
Starting X is not possible and I'm receiving these errors:
Warning: All config files need .conf: /etc/modprobe.d/ndiswrapper, it will be ignored in a future release.
FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.28-ARCH/modules.dep: No such file or directory
No wonder 'cause the modules are located in /lib/modules/2.6.32-ARCH/
NVIDIA(0): Failed to load the NVIDIA kernel module!
I'm not used to Linux but I guess this implies I should build my custom kernel.
Xorg also complained about unusable Screen configurations which makes sense 'cause this is what the Screen section looks like:
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "Device0"
Monitor "Monitor0"
DefaultDepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
EndSubSection
EndSection
I think this is due to the other errors.
I would be glad if someone could help me or point me into the right direction.

(I have a 8500 and nvidia-173xx works just fine...)
The supported graphic cards page of the latest driver mentions the nvidia 8400gs too. I have the mobile version of that card and it runs just fine with the latest drivers. Logic dictates you take the latest working version. -
[Solved] power management during kde startup not loading
Hi,
after solving one problem here comes another. From on side it's onying, but on the other side I lesrn a lot about my system.
Well this time after the last kde update, I get the following message:
KDE Power Management System could not be initialized. The backend reported the following error:
No valid Power Management backend plugins are available. A new installation might solve this problem.
Please check your system configuration.
So I went to:System Settings>>Power Management and the pane on the right is greyed out and there is a message:
Power Management configuration module could not be loaded. The Power Management Service appears not to be running.
This can be solved by starting or scheduling it inside "Startup and Shutdown"
System Settings>>Startup and Shutdown>>Service Manager, shows that Power management is running.
If I try to start upower manually I get the following message:
/usr/lib/upower/upowerd
(upowerd:30849): UPower-WARNING **: Failed to acquire org.freedesktop.UPower: Connection ":1.77"
is not allowed to own the service "org.freedesktop.UPower" due to security policies in the configuration file
(upowerd:30849): UPower-WARNING **: Could not acquire name; bailing out
I found this post: http://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.p … KDE-4-11-1
where it states tha this was a bug in some previous kde releases.
Well apparently it happened again here.
I read somewhere that it could be because the policykit rules weren't update. I tried to understand policykit conf files but for no avail. I'm twice lefthanded on that matter.
Any takers?
PS.: Checking with journalctl -r I found that upowerd was masked, so I did;
#systemctl unmask upower.service
than I enabled it;
#systemctl enable upower.service
and if you want to start it right away than;
#systemctl start upower.service
Well that's it.

I accidentally forgot to mark the nvidia package as ignored when I did my last update, so it did the whole messing up the system bug and all that. I did the required downgrades, but somewhere along the way I must've accidentally deleted something I never reinstalled.. I reinstalled an older version of the nvidia driver along with nvidia-utils and lib32-nvidia-utils, and my graphics work fine now. KDE, compositing, these all work great. But when I try to start up a game through wine, there's error messages about there being no opengl:
