[SOLVED]Graphics Driver not working

{SOLVED} Had to use vmware drivers {SOLVED}
Hi, I am trying out arch linux for the first time and things have been going pretty smoothly so far. I am in the process of trying to get an xorg default environment going. After doing some research on what the error means, it seems to be a graphics problem.
I am also installing arch on vmware 9.
I am a linux noob so try not to assume I know very much. this is the error when i run startx:
Fatal server error:
no screens found
(EE)
I have been following the beginners guide on the arch wiki to install the gfx drivers, and I may have completely cocked it up.
My GFX card is an Nvidia Geforce GTX 260
I first got the nvidia-utils and then tried to install the driver( i think)
The commands i ran were:
pacman -S lib32-nvidia-utils
pacman -S nvidia
and that's it.
I'm probably just being a noob, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Here is my xorg log file: http://pastie.org/private/uwkqxfym08ghr9zvlba
and the conf file: http://pastie.org/private/vnfgrwofkaxeyboodkiq
The output of lspci|grep VGA is :
00:0f.0 VGA compatible controller: VMware SVGA II Adapter

Window 10 upgrade. Graphics driver not working even after re-install

Notebook pavilion DV6 3280. Just upgraded to Windows 10 and AMD graphics driver not working even after re-install. What do I do? Is there another driver not on the HP Website that I should try?

Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you.

Hello,
I strongly suspect that you need to change 'ide' to 'pata' in your /etc/mkinitcpio.conf
#HOOKS="base udev autodetect ide scsi sata usb keymap filesystems"
HOOKS="base udev autodetect pata scsi sata usb keymap filesystems"
Then recreate with:
mkinitcpio -g /boot/kernel26.img

Graphics driver not working good on Satellite 1410-304

Hi there,
I have installed latest Graphic card driver on my TS S1410-304 (latest auto-actualization can find anyway...) and about 1,5cm of the right side of the screen disappeared. I mean that computer thinks that they are not there, even if I set screen resolution at 1024x768 (969x768 being default), it behaves like I have set it on wider resolution than monitor has and scrolls to that invisible corner. GC is GeForce 4 420 Go. Does anyone know how to fix that?

Hi
From where did you download the graphic driver and what graphic driver did you use???
You should use the Toshiba graphic drivers. These drivers are designed especially for the notebook usage and other graphic drivers for example from the graphic card manufacture are designed for usage on the desktop PCs.
Therefore follow the link suggested above and install the driver from the Toshiba page.

Sound & Graphics Drivers not working for Qosmio F15R

I was granted this Laptop with nothing more than AC Adapter. I didn't need the information contained in it and didn't want to deal with its configuration issues either, so I started planning formatting it. Looking for model number label at the bottom found it says "Qosmio F15R". I couldn't found this model number at support website for drivers, closest model was F-15AV201, figured it out by watching its pictures in detailed specs documentation. Everything but Bluetooth seemed to be available, so I formatted and reinstalled Windows XP Pro SP3 and then downloaded all drivers. Touchpad, Ethernet, Wireless, Flash memory, TV-FM and DVD-RAM worked just fine. On the other hand Sound, Display and Modem didn't work at all.
While installing Sound driver I got this error message:
http://img21.imageshack.us/img21/5075/sounddriver.png
(it says: "couldn't find driver, reboot and reinstall")
After installing Display driver checked display adapter properties and found this:
http://img402.imageshack.us/img402/5171/vga.png
(no information available and even scrolling on web browser is crappy)
After installing Modem driver realized it was not identified:
http://img237.imageshack.us/img237/4613/devicemanager.png
(Sound, Display, unknown device, Modem)
I thought I was using drivers for wrong model, so I downloaded PC Wizard, a freeware that identifies hardware configuration:
http://img262.imageshack.us/img262/6452/pcwizard.png
wich gave me chipset, processor, video card and-
http://img175.imageshack.us/img175/4121/soundr.png
-sound card: 82801FB ICH6 AC'97.
I couldn't find any proper driver nor for sound nor display, so I tried a shareware, Everest:
http://img337.imageshack.us/img337/6199/everesth.png
wich showed me the same chipset, video card and sound card model numbers than PC Wizard.
I realized that chipset, and display model didn't match detailed specs documentation. I thought that hardware was not working properly, so I downloaded and installed a Linux distro (Kubuntu 9.10 RC i386), and fount out that display and sound were working just fine but I need it to work properly with Windows XP.
Can anyone tell me where can I get sound and display drivers (and even Bluetooth if possible) for this laptop? Thanks in advance. Regards.

I have the same problem with audio driver. I can send you the graphic driver that works with Qosmio F15R if you need. My email: [email protected] Toshiba is so bad in supporting with their products.

HP deskjet D2300 series driver not working in windows 7

This procedure is much too complicated for an average user. You know that millions of Wondow XP users are switching to Windows 7. I' sure that most of them are facing similar problems. HP should come with a user friendly solution that solves the above issues. Don't you think?
My problem remains unsolved.

Hi dvh,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I see that your HP Deskjet D2300 series driver not working in windows 7.
Do you see any error messages with the installer? Or does it just close out and doesn't install?
In the meantime, please try using our HP Printer Install Wizard for Windows.
Hope to hear back from you, and have a great day!

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.

TS4317 graphics cards not work

video file is not working graphics card not working is their is any software that i can update. or tell me why its not working

If you can see an image on your screen then your graphics card (Intel HD Graphics 3000) integrated into your 13" machine is working just fine.
I'm not sure what you mean when you say that a video file isn't working... how exactly isn't it 'working' and what file format is it in?

Graphical editor not working

Hi,
SAP Graphical editor not working. I am getting the following error.
EU_SCRP_WN32 : timeout during allocate / CPIC-CALL: 'ThSAPCMRCV'
Last week its sucessfully working but suddenly happen this issue... This problem in development server only. In production server is sucessfully working.
Please advise...
Regards
Rajesh.

Hi Rajesh,
It looks to be RFC connection issue.
Refer to various solutions described in below SAP note
101971 - 37527 Graphical full screen is not available (RFC)
Alternative
Workaround
You can prevent the termination of the RFC connection by increasing the value of the timeout parameter for the relevant RFC destination. Call transaction SM59, choose the TCP/IP connection "EU_SCRP_WN32" and branch to the "Special Options" tab page. In the section "Keep-Alive-Timeout" select the option "Specify Timeout" and enter a longer wait time (for example, 300 seconds). Undo this change once you use the corrected program version.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Deepak Kori
