[solved] Driver for Nvidia ION Card

I have an Acer Aspire Revo which according to lspci has:
03:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation ION VGA (rev b1)
Looking through the Wiki and the nVidia site, I am not sure which of the various drivers are for this card. The nVidia site takes me to a page "GEFORCE R320 GAME READY DRIVER". Has anyone got one of these and if so which driver are you using?

You have two options to try: nvidia and nvidia-304xx. Try the nvidia package first. I'm pretty sure my ION2 atom board ran the nvidia package; I use that box as an NAS now and it doesn't have X installed so no need for a gfx driver now.

[SOLVED] Driver for Nvidia Geforce 210

Hi guys. I'm having some trouble searching the proper video driver for my system. I need the nvidia driver for my Geforce 210.
The wiki says: "For GeForce 2/3/4 MX/Ti series cards [NV11 and NV17-NV28], install nvidia-96xx package, available in the AUR. " , but is there any way to avoid using AUR?
I've tried downloading the propretary driver from Nvidia' site and couldn't install it. So i'm thinking about the open drivers: is Nouveau a good choice in your opinion?
Thanks for reading!

run the following command & post the output here:
lspci | grep VGA
if you REALLY do mean Geforce 210 you should see something like this (as I have a Geforce 210)

Greetings to all!
Trying to install driver for Nvidia GeForce Go 7600 after complete system reinstall, but without any success. Only safe mode is available after this driver installation, tried with Windows XP, Vista and Windows 7 and with different drivers from Nvidia and Toshiba sites - same result all the time :(
Would be glad to realize how to solve this... Thanks a lot.

Nouveau driver (OSS 3D driver for Nvidia)

I have tried to make packages for the nouveau driver with success, but would like feedback from other users before submitting them to AUR.
To keep things clean and maintanable, i decided to create 3 packages :
nouveau-git ---- the kernel modules
libdrm-nouveau-git ---- userspace part that replaces libdrm
xf86-video-nouveau-git ---- the driver itself (the easiest package)
nouveau-git

Actually, this driver already has a Wiki page, http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Broadcom_BCM4312. The new information is that it doesn't just work with bcm4312 cards, but all modern 43xx cards. See the forum links in the previous message.
The driver is already available in AUR,

Satellite M60: can not install the newest driver for my graphic card

Can not install newest driver for my graphic card

ATI MOBILITY RADEON X700

Hello
First of all I really dont understand why you start two topics with the same theme. It is much better to have one topic with good content and interesting comments. Am I right? ;)
Anyway, in your case it is interesting that Toshiba use adapted drivers because of hardware protection. That means that graphic card will not be forced to run at the maximum level. Hardware cooling in notebooks is very problematic and high temperature can result with overheating or hardware damage. All hardware components are placed on small place. Graphic card produce a lot of warmness and it is not so good for all other hardware.
When you use non-Toshiba driver graphic card will be forced to run faster. Because of that every notebook manufacturers dont support usage of third part drivers. The fact is that hardware protection is priority.
I didnt make any experiments but according to some reports on this forum there is way how to install non-Toshiba graphic card driver.
Please check this forum and you will find many comments about that. One interesting topic is http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=18063&messageID=66186

Need driver for Nvidia Geforce Go 6150 for Windows 7

Hi, can anyone please tell me where I can download the driver for Nvidia Geforce Go 6150 for Windows 7. I have tried the drivers for Windows Vista but it does not work. Thanks in advance.

I followed this tutorial after installing Win7 on a friend's HP Pavilion tx1332LA (the tutorial is in Spanish):
http://www.taringa.net/posts/ebooks-tutoriales/2570715/NVIDIA-nForce-Chipset-Driver-(windows-7-_-vista).html
And since the coprocessor was no longer listed as an unknown device (or something similar), I assumed everything worked correctly afterwards... is that alright or do I have to check in some other way?
Well, here is a part of what the tutorial says (what was enough for me):
-Should work for 32-bits and 64-bits versions (I installed it on Windows 7 x64).
-First of all, we see that in the Device Administrator, there is an unknown device, a coprocessor. That's because Windows 7 can't find its driver.
-Download and install the following:
NVIDIA nForce Chipset Driver
ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp39501-40000/sp39535.exe
and see if the coprocessor is recognized.
-If not, go to the Device Administrator and find the unrecognized coprocessor.
-Right-click on it and select Update driver...
-Select browse my computer -> let me pick -> have disk (this is what the tutorial says, it wasn't exactly the same for me, but I eventually got to pick a folder on my hard drive)
-Browse and select the following (assuming C represents the drive where everything from the file above got unpacked):
C:\swsetup\SP39535\WinVista32\SMU\smuc.inf (for 32-bits version)
C:\swsetup\SP39535\WinVista64\SMU\smuc64.inf (for 64-bits version)
Note: That is what the tutorial says, but I could only select the SMU folder and not a specific file. After selecting the SMU folder, a driver was automatically listed, I selected it and it got installed.
-Now, the coprocessor should be recognized (check the Device Manager).
Hope it helps!

NVIDIA driver for optimus capable cards and UEFI

Has anyone have had any luck installing the nvidia (proprietary) driver for laptop with nvidia card like the Y series?
I can't boot the laptop after installing the Nvidia driver. After installing the driver, I get an error saying "device not found" and drops to a shell mode.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Yes, I did make this thread, but a month ago. Since then I have it resolved, and I even have it tagged as resolved. Back then, I had a lot of problem making it work. But that was a month ago.
And yes, I admit now that there are still issues with the driver. But as I've said at least twice already, the issues exist because native support NVIDIA provides is still relatively new. And yes, people are still experiencing problems because, I'll say it again for the third time, native support is still relatively new and therefore can be buggy.
I think it's totally off pace to make factual statements based on one's experience. You're not paying attention to what you're reading and you're very quick to jump to conclusions. NVIDIA most certainly doesn't say that it doesn't support Optimus on linux based OSes. There are minimum required kernel and xrandr versions, and that's pretty much it. They even tell you how to install it on their website:
http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/319.12/README/randr14.html
There can be/are issues after you install it, and as I mentioned before, I summarized in another thread as to how I got around a lot of the issues I had. Click my username and view it.
Finally, every other person and their grandmother is using Ubuntu these days, so there is a lot of support out there for it. I'd imagine that for the latest version of Ubuntu, someone out there has posted a step-by-step guide as to how to install the nvidia driver on an optimus card. The major issue is with older kernels or I'd imagine BSD, etc.

NVidia driver for my vid card.

I tried to install the newest nVidia driver.... the Forceware Driver 52.16. I got it installed, and when I rebooted my comp, it got no further than the Windows start-up screen. Thus causing me to revert to my default driver settings. Supposedly this driver is supported by my card, a GeForce3 ti 200 64mg card. What's the scoop? Am I doing something wrong?.... Is there a different driver for this card? Also... where or how do I get openGL 1.4? Thanks a bunch!

Make sure you turn off Anti-virus software before installing new drivers. useing driver cleaner is helpfull in keeping windows from installing the drivers you just uninstalled (cab cleaner it takes some time to complete) and if you want to try a new driver that works well (this one I use)
http://www.evga.com/support/downloads/default.asp
This 53.03 is the latest from eVGA and will work with any nVidia card
after the driver is installed there will be a folder in the program files named eVGADrv. this folder can be wiped after the next driver update.
OpenGL is part of the driver package no need for a seprate download

Linux driver for wireless PCMCIA card CD54G2

Hi,
Download and install the driver for Realtek wireless RTL8185L from here.
Use the Windows 7 driver. If there will be problem with the installation process then use the Compatibility mode.
