[Solved] Catalyst and RandR not detecting monitors

SOLUTION
The xorg.conf that CCC configures, even when xinerama is disabled, does not work with RandR. I gutted everything so only my primary monitor was in xorg.conf, then added the line 'Virtual' where appropriate with the correct square size of my total monitor space. xrandr then detects everything fine, and was able to use xrandr to get the screens working. Openbox only needs one session. Life is good.
Working xorg.conf with RandR:

Original Problem
Hi,
I'm moving from Xinerama (Which worked well for most things) to RandR. To get randr loading first thing I did was disable Xinerama in Catalyst Control Centre, restarted X.
My xorg.conf (Generated by CCC) has all monitors and modes listed correctly, and my middle (Primary) monitor (DFP5) works fine. My two sides, DFP9 and DFP10, are blank. I can move the cursor over to them, but that's about it.
xrandr does not appear to detect DFP9 and DFP10 as being connected.
I am using catalyst-total from AUR.
I've included all info I think may be helpful.
EDIT:
Seems my main issue was that Openbox needs a session on each X screen. So I can now use each X screen, but I can't alt tab across every window because the sessions don't talk to each other. randr still does not work though.
cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep RandR

PC and phone not detecting each other

Basically I tried to connect my mother's n70 to my computer (vista Ultimate 32bit) using the CA-53 cable. However I was just given the prompt unknown device installed, and PC Suite was not detecting anything. So basically I had no choice but to just abandon it and try to connect my phone (5800) to the PC. However, the phone now does not detect being connected to the PC, and Ovi Suite cannot detect the phone as well. Trying it out on PC Suite, it gives me the error "No connection type available, wizard will now close" or something along those lines.
Its the first time this has happened to me so I have no clue. I've already tried repairing, and uninstall reinstall but still nothing.
Advice would be appreciated.
Oh yeah, anyone knows of a way to get a hold of the actual files of the messages and contacts synced to Ovi Suite?

My laptop doesnt have bluetooth, and I dont have a dongle. However its not cable, as I have three cables here (2 CA-101, and a CA-101D), and they all dont work.
Anyway, I found a fix here about using PC Suite cleaner, I found one which was compatible with PC Suite 7, and now they can find the USB ports. The problem now is the phone still doesn't detect the connection. Oh well. I'll just try to give it a reset. I have a recent backup anyway.
EDIT: never mind. After the PC Suite reinstallation where they started finding the USB ports again, and I just turned off my mobile for 5 min without the battery, I tried connecting it again and the drivers started installing. Thanks for the time anyway.

LAN card and USB not detected (KM4M-V)

I just formatted my PC yesterday, installing Win XP SP2. But the intergrated LAN card and USB is not detected in device manager. I tried HELP but cannot solve the problem.
I am a little confused. After formatting and installing Windows, the hardwares who don't have driver will be having a question mark icon in the device manager. But for my computer, no USB or LAN card is written in the device manager. How can that be?
I had checked my BIOS and nothing indicated to change the USB or the LAN card.
Where did i go wrong? I am using a MSI KM4M-V motherboard.
Anyone can help? Thanks.

DVD-Audio and "can not detect sound blaster card" with Audigy2 Va

I recently purchased an "Audigy2 Value" card from an eBay user, because I recently purchased some DVD-Audio discs. I downloaded the Audigy2 drivers from the website, and the Creative MediaSource player. 5. Surround sound worked fine for me, though sometimes the driver would reset to the default 2/2. sound and I would have to re-select 5. sound, which was annoying.
Then I was completely unable to get the MediaSource player to recognise my DVD-Audio discs, and the EAX functionality of the player would never work. The EAX logo never appeared in the player. When I tried installing the MediaSource player from an install disc, I got the message "can not detect sound blaster card". Then I discovered the world of EEPROM problems.
I followed advice from some other threads, including using ScanPCI to get information on the card, which yielded the following result.
When installed on my machine (Asus A7A266 motherboard) the ScanPCI reads:
Vendor 02h Creative Labs
Device 0008h Unknown

On another machine (specs unknown, it's a "house pc") I got this (with 3 entries!):
Vendor 02h Creative Labs

Command 0004h (BusMaster)

(Just a note: above you can clearly see that it does not say I have an Audigy, it thinks it is a SBLi've. Is this normal? The card IS an Audigy 2, it says so on the card.)
So, I put the card back on my own PC, thinking this has fixed my EEPROM, but I get the same as before. Subsystem ID 0002h. And of course the install software will not detect the card.
I realise that I could go back to using the web drivers, but this still leaves me with MediaSource not recognising the card and not enabling DVD-Audio or EAX, which is why I bought the card in the first place!
I have heard that the VIA chipset is possibly to blame for the EEPROM problems on the Audigy cards, and certainly it seems like it is not permanent, since it gave different information on the other PC. So now I am seriously considering getting a new motherboard.
Do other motherboards cause this same problem? I don't want to buy another board and get the same trouble. All I want is to be able to install my MediaSource and have it recognise my card so I can listen to my DVD-Audio discs.
Cheers,
Russ.

Figured out my problem. Installing the drivers from the web to begin with was a bad idea. They just did not work properly with the card.
The "card not found" problem has gone as well, after installing it in another PC. I am also using the proper install disc now, as the other one I was using turned out to not be for the Audigy 2 value after all, but was an Audigy 2 install disc. That easily explains the "Card not found" error. The differing results from the ScanPCI program are still bizarre, though.
Thanks to all of the people on the forum who posted information in other threads to help me deal with this issue. For now I am sticking with the original drivers from the disc and I am not upgrading.

IPod 5th Gen constantly resets and is not detected

My iPod 5th Gen erased all my music and constantly resets when plugged in. I've searched far and wide through support to no avail so I look to the community to aid my quest to load music to my iPod again. Thanks in advance for the help!
Situation:
- music and all data erased suddenly and is currently in factory settings
- when iPod is plugged in to computer, the iPod screen shows (in order):
     ° "connected, eject before disconnecting" (~5 seconds)
     ° off screen, completely blank (~1 second)
     ° apple logo appears as if restored (~5 seconds)
     ° repeat perpetually
Attempted Remedies and Scenarios:
- restore iPod via select / menu buttons
- try running Disc Mode via select / play buttons
- restore iPod via iTunes (cannot attempt because it is not detected under devices)
- reformat and erase all data in iPod via iTunes (cannot attempt because it is not detected under devices)
- reformat iPod via Disk Utility (iPod is not detected on Mac so cannot select)
- attempted all of the above with the following variables:
     ° with pc running Windows 7, iTunes current
     ° with Mac mini running Mavericks, iTunes current
     ° with Macbook Air running Mavericks, iTunes current
     ° tried all USB ports on all above computers
     ° tried 2 separate 30-pin USB cables (both USB cables work with my iPhone 4s)
     ° iPod is fully charged
     ° restart all computers

Hi everyone.. just found the solution... conveniently after I start a thread. Turns out that my iPod nano had converted all 7.3GB of my 8GB into "Other" space and reset all my settings.
Solution is as follows:
- run disc mode while plugged-in (running Macbook Air)
- restore dialog box appears via iTunes while in disc mode
- restore iPod nano
- upload music
- enjoy

[SOLVED] Xorg and keyboard not working after upgrade.

Just my 1.46¢
You're right, problem wasn't actually solved. In fact, yesterday I upgraded the whole system again and the same problem showed up, but I got it fixed.
Same scenario: after a boot (shorter than usual), what I had was a tty, but I noticed something that I hadn't noticed the last time: the prompt said "Arch Linux 3.11.[?]".
The kernel version was supposed to be 3.12.[?] so I started investigating and after several attempts, this is how I got the system working again:
1. Chrooted into the system
2. Wiped /boot
3. Re-installed grub
4. Re-installed linux kernel
5. Re-created grub.cfg
6. ???
7. Profit
I'm pretty sure that what originated the problem wasn't a "kernel issue" as I pointed out in my previous post, but it was an incorrect installation of grub: in fact, the grub prompt never showed up before yesterday, the system used to boot straight, ignoring the 5 seconds timeout.

IPhone 4 restarts again and again, not detected by PC

I have a network locked phone which my uncle sent my from foriegn. I previously updated it to iOS 7.0.4 and activated it using Hactivate tool because I did not have the network SIM. I used it for 6 months normally. Then I JailBroke my iPhone using evasi0n 7. It again worked normly for 2 months. But it curropted some of iOS applications including Mail, Safari, etc. I tried to restore it to iOS 7.0.4 but Apple didn't allow me. So I made a backup and restored to latest iOS 7.1.2 for iPhone 4. It was sucessful but again activation through SIM needed.
I used similar Hactivate tool again. But it stuck and sucked!!
Now I am holding a iPhone 4 which:
1. Restarts, stucts on Apple logo and again restarts and so on until it has some battery.
2. PC does not detect it.
3. And it does not turn on or turn off on my will.
4. Holding Power and Home button does nothing.
Any solution??

Hope it helps you

GTX 760 N760-TF-2GD5-OC PhysX and Cuda Not Detected

I have done google search after google search, but I've yet to find any info on my problem.
I recently acquired an MSI GTX 760 OC from Newegg, and of course right away put it in my rig and installed Geforce Experience. Drivers were automatically downloaded, and all seemed well. At least, until I opened GPU-Z. OpenCL, CUDA, and PhysX were not checked. At first I didn't think anything about it because I've had similar issues with GPU-Z in the past with my old HD Radeon 6750, but when I opened up AC4, the PhysX option wasn't anywhere to be found. And I did download the patch, so that wasn't the issue.
Next I ran BOINC, which also did not detect a GPU capable of running calculations, which of course the GTX 760 is. So somehow, the PhysX/CUDA installation went wrong.
I re-downloaded the driver suite outside of Geforce Experience in case that was where the fault was, but even after uninstalling and re-installing the drivers several times, PhysX and CUDA refused to check themselves on GPU-Z. I even ran my machine in safe mode and used Driver Sweeper, but no avail.
It does appear that PhysX isn't un-installing itself properly, because every time I run the driver installation program, PhysX always shows up as being installed. I have manually deleted the folders, so there aren't any actual PhysX files on my PC anymore. I figured that the problem lies in the registry perhaps, but Auslogics Registry Cleaner hasn't turned up any errors so far.
Any help would be great; I've sent a ticket in to MSI, but since it is a weekend I'm not expecting a response until Monday. I go back to college on Monday, so I'd like to get this fixed sooner rather than later
My specs:
Windows 7 Professional 64-bit
i5 2500K SB @4.6GHz
8GB DDR3 in Dual Channel
2 HDD (old ones lol) in AHCI mode
mobo is an MSI Z68A-GD55-B3
Thanks again for the help.

An OS reinstall would be an absolute last ditch there-is-nothing-else-you-can-do option for me, because backing up my HDD is almost impossible in my situation.
Would a System Restore to a point earlier than the original install of the graphics card perform a similar function to the uninstall? Assuming I did something dumb in the installation or something went wrong in the original driver download.

Did you know that using the erase feature for stolen iPads can fail? Mine did and was not detected for 10days.

Thursday(day 1):Had an iPad2 wifi only which I rarely used, stolen.
minutes later, pulled up findmyphone on iCloud and put a lock on iPad and then erased the iPad.
Sunday(day4) : I noted websites opened on my iphone that I had not opened.
Monday: Spooked, I went to genius bar was informed that it would have been wiped since the thief had been hooked to wifi and thus the iPad would have been erased.
Sunday(day 11), my iCal has been deleted totally from all my devices (iMac, iPhone, MacAir)
Monday (day12): I go to genius bar with Time Machine backup drive and some magic is worked to recover it. The conclusion was that the thief of my iPad wiped it out. And, " there are always ways to get into the iPad if they really want to with firewalls etc....". And I needed to change my iCloud password (which the first guy did not suggest and stupidly I did not presume I needed to do).
Monday: (day 12) Password changed. OK, done.
Wednesday (day14): I open my photo stream on the iphone and see screen shots of websites dated from as recently as day 10! These of course showed up on my iMac and my iPhone amongst my own photo shots. Talk about feeling violated and failed.
Moral of story: Can not trust that the erase feature works.
Change every single password you have as there is not assurance that a track has not been made.
And, do not have more than one user on your device: such as your spouse as their stuff could be compromized too.

The pages panel is not the place where you see this information. You can customize the Links panel to show all sorts of things, including the page number, effective and actual ppi, and whether the link is OK or needs updating.

Hello,
I recently got an iphone from a friend because I was never able to afford one. It's quite old, and he told me it hasn't worked in a while. He said that either the battery of the sync/charger port was no longer functioning; because one day when he was using it the battery drained relatively fast and after that it would no longer turn on. The unit itself is in brand new condition, he used a case and a screen protector, and both water damage indicators are completely white! He said it no longer connects to itunes, is no longer recognized by any computer, the screen no longer turns on, and there is absolutely no activity on the phones part. Therefore he no longer had any use for it and gave it to me, and wished me luck in my goal to fix it. Since receiving it i've gone through the normal solutions, i've tried resetting it and putting it into DFU mode by holding both the sleep/wake button and the home button to no avail. I've tried it on all 3 of my computers (although they are all fairly old) and on my fiancées computer. My fiancée has a working iphone 3g and I've tried connecting my phone using her computer and sync cable. All to no avail. I am positively clueless as to what the problem is, the phone has never been opened and theres not even a scratch on it! I can't afford a new iphone and the unit itself is an original iphone (2g/edge) so obviously the warranty is no longer active and he did not have applecare either. The phone has a serial number on the back of it if that would be of any use, I honestly would just like to know what is wrong with it, but i'm beginning to doubt that its even possible due to the phone not responding at all. Please help me with my issue =/.
thank you - sincerely,
Erkansus

I have the exact same issue with an old original iphone and have all but given up. I want to sell the old phone, but I am afraid that there might be some information left (it is a family members phone so I don't want to do that to him). If there is no way to fix it, is there at least a way to erase content without turning the phone on? Seems unlikely.

[SOLVED] NVidia, Xorg, Output not reaching monitor?

Hardware...
====================================================
Computer: ASUS K55VD Laptop (UEFI Motherboard)
Processor: Intel i5
Graphics: NVidia GeForce 610M, also the Intel chip that I'm not using (I think)
Relevant System Information (I figure maybe the location of my initramfs is messing with driver installation?)...
====================================================
Partitioning...
sda1: /boot (FAT32)
sda2: / (ext4)
sda3: /home (ext4)
Boot: Syslinux EFI setup using efibootmgr (ESP: /boot, Syslinux: /boot/EFI/syslinux)
Driver package: "nvidia", corresponding libgl and lib32 stuff. NOTE: I know this is the wrong version, but my problem is _exactly_ the same with nvidia-304xx.
Xorg Configuration (no other conf files influencing outcome, no ~/.xinitrc)...
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-evdev.conf
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-quirks.conf
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-server.conf
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-nvidia.conf
Other Notes: The laptop originally came with Windows 8. At the time, I didn't want to spend a whole lot of time installing Arch, so I chose Ubuntu for the time being. While Ubuntu was installed, I noticed that the driver being used was called "Mesa", and certain applications didn't like that (NCAR's VAPOR, for example). Perhaps there's a problem with the hardware that's causing Ubuntu to choose an alternate install system, and now I'm running into that?
Problem...
====================================================
I've set everything up properly according to the Beginner's Guide, NVIDIA and Xorg pages.
I run startx.
At "Loading extension GLX", the whole TTY freezes (stops redrawing, can tell because cursor freezes in current state <on/off>).
At this point, I can still switch TTYs with C-M-F<n>, so it's just that one TTY.
I can type "exit", <Enter>, and then the server dies dramatically.
Here's the full output from the server, which had to be unjumbled by redirecting all output to a file
Here's my /var/log/Xorg.0.log, recovered after the test
I was even able to retrieve this glxinfo output by piping to a file!
Again, I was typing blind, so there's no real guarantee that the glxinfo output is, in fact, glxinfo output...
Analysis...
====================================================
I have no idea what the problem is on the server's shutdown, but I've got ideas about the rest of it.
I figure what's happening is that the server is starting just fine, but it isn't putting output on my monitor. It opens the twm environment, which starts with an open terminal. When I type "exit", <Enter>, the server shuts down again, as expected, but something goes wrong.
That's how it occurred to me to grab that glxinfo: 'glxinfo > ~/test'
Does the following mean that it's actually using the Intel graphics? (found this in Xorg log)
[ 1571.248] (--) PCI:*(0:0:2:0) :::this refers to the Intel graphics
[ 1571.248] (--) PCI: (0:1:0:0) :::this refers to the 610M
What does that asterisk (*) mean?
Does this line mean that my graphics card isn't hooked up to my monitor?
[ 1571.383] (--) NVIDIA(0): Valid display device(s) on GeForce 610M at PCI:1:0:0
[ 1571.383] (--) NVIDIA(0): none
Maybe I need to configure my monitor to be detected somehow?
I noticed two errors in the Xorg log that might be related...
[ 1571.385] (EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to initiate mode change.
[ 1571.385] (EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to complete mode change
Maybe there's a simple package installation that will fix everything?
If there's any more information you need, please ask.
Thanks!
PS: wgetpaste was EXTREMELY helpful!

New Progress!
I've managed to get my screen to go black during the server's run, instead of having my TTY just freeze!
I followed the instructions here
However, now I have the problem that the X server shuts down about two seconds after startup. I have confirmed that both of the xrandr commands are completed.
Here is my x log
Here is my x output
As you can see, we have "Screen 1 deleted because of no matching config section". I have no idea what that means.
The NVIDIA driver still appears to try setting mode "NULL" (maybe it isn't getting the available modes properly?)
At the end, there's this weird thing...
reporting 3 4 17 122
have a master to look out for
adjust shatters 0 1366
need to create shared pixmap 1(II) NVIDIA(GPU-0): Deleting GPU-0
Uhhh...why is it deleting my GPU? (I have no idea what it means by that)
UPDATE (again!)...
I HAVE LWM WINDOWS APPEARING! (but I had to stop the nvidia to get that)
I changed the ServerLayout to have Screen 0 be the "intel" screen.
Initially, input wasn't being handled at all, resulting in complete inability to do anything once x started
I managed to get input working by adding some xorg configs for my input devices (now I have fully-functional xorg, but without my nvidia card)
I still want to get my nvidia working.

(Solved) [Intel HDA] Headphones not detected

Hi there,
I'm having an annoying issue since I've installed (and re-installed) Arch on my netbook.
Everything's alright (except Gnash, but I'll google that later), the internal speakers work perfectly but when I put my headphones or my speakers (ext.) the internal speakers are "muted-off" (so the jack is detected, right?) but nothing's coming out from my headphones/speakers.
Here's my aplay -l out :
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: CONEXANT Analog [CONEXANT Analog]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 1: Conexant Digital [Conexant Digital]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
And here is my amixer output:
Simple mixer control 'Master',0
Capabilities: pvolume pswitch pswitch-joined
Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right
Limits: Playback 0 - 65536
Mono:
Front Left: Playback 65536 [100%] [on]
Front Right: Playback 65536 [100%] [on]
Simple mixer control 'Capture',0
Capabilities: cvolume cswitch cswitch-joined
Capture channels: Front Left - Front Right
Limits: Capture 0 - 65536
Front Left: Capture 27636 [42%] [off]
Front Right: Capture 27636 [42%] [off]
and a lspci | grep Audio output:
00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation NM10/ICH7 Family High Definition Audio Controller (rev 02)
My headphones are plugged-in since I booted.
Another problem is that when I'm launching alsamixer there's only the master (Card: PulseAudio - Chip: PulseAudio). So, I make F6 > "1 HDA Intel" and I have other channels :
Master (100 & unmuted) - PCM (100 & unmunted) - Mic (0 & muted) - S/PDIF (muted) - S/PDIF Default PCM (unmuted) - Beep (86 & muted) - Internal Mic (0 & muted) -- (Card: HDA Intel - Chip: Conexant CX20549 (Venice))
This is strange because on my former installation of Arch (on the same PC) the "default" alsamixer had exactly the same channels and the "Master only" didn't 'exists'. (But I had the same problems).
I tried a bunch of solutions I found but none worked.
alsa-utils alsa-plugins & alsa-oss are installed (base-devel too if it can help).
I'm using SLiM & Cinnamon and had the same issue with LXDM & LXDE (same computer).
So if somebody could gave me a little bit of his light it'll be much appreciated!
Thank you, Flaco
*Edit: Since I've rebooted with the headphones plugged-in the internal speakers don't work neither... but it may be something else; I tried a lot of solutions so maybe there's conflict between some files and/or process...
**Edit: Internal speakers issue solved. I might have touched some stuffs on pavucontrol before... anyway, the headphones are still a problem...
***Edit: I've booted (on a live usb) on Lubuntu to see what's happening and... still no sound. The jack input might be broken; I'll open my computer to see what's happening and to repair (or not) it.
