[SOLVED] Intel x3100 Laptop Video Card: which driver to use?

I tried the xf86-video-intel package, but when I try to start X, it returns the "no screens found" error, with OR without a xorg.conf.

The intel driver requires KMS starting with 2.10. So you're either wrong or all those people are still using 2.9

The i915 kernel module is used for all newer intel cards, including your 3100, so following those instructions should lead you to success.

    How about this? Use Delete array subset to extract chunks for averaging, and a shift register to retain the remaining array.
    It is typically not advisable to use "delete from array" in a tight loop. The constant memory reallocations due to array resizing are probably inefficient.

  • Apple usb jis keyboard in windows xp which driver to use

    hi,
    i bought the apple jis usb keyboard for my wife since it looked nice and was usb. it is supposed to be like standard 106/109 layout for japanese jis. However, I am not sure which driver to use in windows xp. xp will try to use the standard hid driver. I set it to microsoft 106/109 usb and while all the standard keys match up, the special language mode keys do not.
    Any help here? (ie. use alps usb japanese keyboard driver) or is there a downloadable driver?

    actually found a kernel mode driver called
    applek pro 1.8.x which will allow for this.. Anyone try it?

  • Upgrading Power Mac G5 Dual 2.0 Ram/Video Card/Hard Drives

    Hi there,
    Ok so I am an avid Mac user, but have neglected one of my machines lately. This old Power Mac G5 just pushed the 3 year mark and I had a bunch of repairs done to it (New Logic Board, Hard Drive, Power Supply) before the Apple Care ran out. I used to do all of my editing and stuff on it but haven't had time this past year so it has just sat here and not gotten any use. I felt as if it was time to get back in the game so I picked up another Apple 20" monitor, some M-Audio studio monitors, a 11" Wacom, but feel the machine is too outdated to do anything.
    Ok first off, I am looking to upgrade from the four 256 sticks (1GB) that I have in my computer with some 2 2GB kits (1GB x 2) (4GB total) and have been looking at the ram that Crucial suggests for this machine (8 Slots). Is there anything that I should look for in ram that will help me get through all of my 3D motion design faster (HD Final Cut too). I don't know a lot about ram when it comes to buffers and such, just how to buy compatible ram. Any suggestions?
    Second I am looking to upgrade my video card. I currently have the GeForce FX 5200 with 64 MB of VRAM, which is completely unacceptable. I am looking for a card that can handle all of my motion work along with rendering in Final Cut, something with 256MB of VRAM or more.. I want something that has 2 DVI connections so I don't need an adapter like I currently do with this card to hook up both Apple displays. Suggestions?
    Lastly I am looking to up my storage space on this beast. I currently have a brand new 160GB main HDD (Courtesy Apple Care) and a 250GB Maxtor internally. I would really like to have at least a TB of storage. My question is wether I should just keep the 160 for the main boot up drive and apps along with minimum documents to keep the speeds faster, and get a 500 internal and 500 exclosure, or get two 500's for internal?

    Hi-
    With RAM, fancy isn't necessary, compatible is. Buffers aren't supported, so stick with the recommended memory. Memory should be 184-pin DDR SDRAM DIMMs that are 2.5 volt, unbuffered, 8-byte, nonparity, and DDR400-compliant (PC3200).
    Important: DIMMs with any of the following features are not supported in the Power Mac G5 computer: registers or buffers, PLLs, ECC, parity, or EDO RAM.
    For two DVI outputs, and the power to run your software, the only choices are the Geforce 6800GT and the Geforce 6800 Ultra. For a bit less money, but requires an ADC to DVI adapter for second DVI, the Radeon X800XT will help with the softwares needs. These benchmarks will help you see the performance of the cards.
    For storage, the 160gb will work for OS and applications, but you might as well add two 500gb-750gb drives. The new, enterprise drives have great performance, and though larger, will most probably work faster as a startup drive than the 160gb drive. These benchmarks are from a Mac Pro test, but the results illustrate the speed of the larger drives.
    The Western Digital SE16 series, or the Seagate ES series offer excellent performance and reliability. See Storage Reviews. For a 1tb drive, see this article.
    Of course, whatever you install, add enough external for full backup capabilities.

  • Matrox g200 Video Card, mga driver not working in Xorg7

    Hello!  This is my first post in the forum...greetings everyone!
    So I'm trying to get a Matrox g200 Video Card working -- but I get an error mga_hal module missing...
    I've done a few searches and come up basically empty.  I have seen from another user on this forum that I can use the Vesa driver...just wondering if anyone's found a soloution to using this card under xorg7...?
    I tried installing the driver from their site...however, it detects that I'm running xorg7 and refuses to install...
    Any ideas?  Surely someone has already been down this road...
    Thanks

    I got the probelm worked out ---
    but still getting an mga_hal error which i'm going to ignore :-).
    Thanks!

  • Broken video card/hard drive backup/no monitor

    I have a broken video card.  How do I back up the harddrive if my screen is unreadable?

    Do you have access to another Mac? If so, you might be able to use FireWire Target Disk Mode to mount your hard drive on the other Mac:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1661
    You won't be able to see the FireWire  symbol on the Mac with the non-working video, but you should be able to see the drive mount on the desktop of the other Mac. Once it's there, you will be able to access its contents and do your backup.
    Also, check to see if your Mac falls under this program:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2377
    If it does, the repair will be done at no cost to you.
    Good luck!

  • Cs5 compatible laptop video cards with hardware acceleration

    Is there a list or does anyone know of laptops with compatible video cards for cs5 hardware acceleration? This would be for a windows 7 64bit system.'
    Thanks!

    its not so much a space issue as a power issue, but space is a concern too. I suppose I was looking for a list of laptop compatible cs5 cards. I know that there are cards out there that are and it would be wonderful if adobe compiled a list like they have for standard video cards. And yes you are right, a lot of the video cards listed on that page also have mobile counterparts but are not always compatible since they use different drivers.
    Does anyone have laptop experience with getting full hardware acceleration support?
    Thanks.

    I built my system, I know there is an upgradable video in it because of 2 reasons:

    3. I built my system
    No need to argue and tell me that most, some, or no laptops come with an upgradable video, I'm not worried about most other laptops. Laptops that come from a factory are built to make the factory money. If you cant upgrade it then you have to buy a new one. I bought the components for mine, bought the case, OS, software, hardware, addware, spyware, everything and assembled/set-up. All I wanted to know is if this store carried the cards, not get in a debate about whether my laptop was upgradable. I have already purchased a card elsewhere so thank you and please no more replies.
    If you want to tell yourself that the Cyberpower notebook you ordered was "built" by you, go right ahead. We'll all just laugh at you and call you a loser. But I know for a fact you don't have the skills to build your own notebook. If you did, you wouldn't have asked the question here because anyone who is knowledgeable enough to have done what you claim would have known better in the first place.

  • [SOLVED] Help diagnosing nVidia video card

    I've got a nVidia GT 240 that is producing some glitches on video playback.
    Frames that become stuck and have to wait until a full refresh and sometimes, complete freezes.
    Also, this happened yesterday:
    http://img109.imageshack.us/img109/9318/d3zs.jpg
    I use it only for video playback over HDMI to a 47" TV via XBMC.
    I would need help troubleshooting it... I tested my ram with memtest86+ and it's fine, so there's nothing else that comes to mind that could be the problem. I don't know how to test a video card, though.
    What would you suggest me to do?

    OK: I meant, the problem is not related to the video card, it has nothing to do with the video card, th video card is fine,... if you want to know about what I have been through, you can see it in this thread:

  • Bad video card or driver/hardware incompatibility?

    I have not had a problem with stability on my main computer until I purchased an MSI GeForce4 Ti4600.  I have in the past operated this computer for over a week without reboot or shut down with little problem.
    With this new card, I can no longer play any game that contains 3D graphics.  When using Windows XP for the exclusive purpose of 2D graphics, it is fairly stable.  Once I try doing anything 3D intensive, I will almost immediately lock up, get a "blue screen of death" with a variety of messages including "hardware failure", or get a distorted image followed by one of the two previous listed actions.  I have been trying different software configurations over the past week with no success.  I have tried using Windows 2000, every combination of drivers I can find/think of, and 3 different version of motherboard bios.
    The stats on the computer I have been mentioning are as follows:
    Tyan S2460 motherboard
    2 x AMD Athlon MD 1600+
    2 x 256MB PC2100 DDR Ram
    IBM 60GB 7500RPM harddrive
    400Watt power supply
    I initially thought that it was a hardware conflict so I decided, yesterday, to try the video card on my old machine.  I had the exact same problems.
    Stats on the second machine:
    600MHz Athlon
    Gigabyte 7IX motherboard
    125MB Ram
    250 Watt power supply
    I would like to get some input before I decide what my next step is.

    I plan on trying it; however, I am not looking forward to exchanging power supplies.   :P   Have already put a weeks worth of work into it.
    I don't think it is over heating.  I am a cooling freak.  For example, I water cool my main system (the cooling is externally powered thus lowering the strain on my p/s), excluding the video card, even though nothing is overclocked.  ATM, my video card has a large fan positioned right next to it for the sole purpose of helping the factory fan/heatsink do their job.  After the lock-ups, i have physically checked the card's temperature, and it seemed to be staying quite cool.

  • Which driver to use in the BPM Configuration Steps?

    Hi,
    I´m in the BPM configuration steps and we will use BPM on a Weblogic Server, I´m in the step when you need to create to JDBC Data Sources for the Enterprise and Directory Databases, do you know which driver shoul I use? should it be XA o Non-XA?
    Thanx in Advanced!
    Kind Regards,
    Gerardo J

    Since there are no drivers, you can create your own, request one, use the Instrument I/O Assistant, or hope someone has one and posts it here. For help on creating one or requesting one, see the main Instrument Driver Network page. As long as you are familiar with the instrument and have the manual, creating a driver is not that hard.

  • I want to upgrade my Mac Pro video card. I am using a mac quad core 2.7 GHz 8 megs of ram and an ATI Radeon 3870. Where do I start?

    I am using a mac pro with a 2.7 GHz processor 8 gigs of ram and a Radeon HD 3870 video card with 512 megs of vram.
    I want to upgrade to 1 gig of vram if possible.
    Can anyone tell me where I can begin looking, what brand to buy, and what options I have?
    I want to be able to use the Element 3D plug in After Effects.
    Also, would I need to upgrade my operating system?
    Thanks,
    Faucheux

    Shop for them at the Apple Online Store. I would suggest the ATI 5770 or 5870 or one of the new Nvidia GTX models - 650 Ti, 660, or 680.
    Note that unless your Mac Pro has PCIe 2.0 slots you should stick with the ATI 5770.

  • BEA MS Sql server which driver to use?

    We have BEA weblogic 8.1 and want to work with sql server Which driver
    shoudl we use ?
    i believe driver is deprecated
    Bea talks about the new driver
    "WebLogic Server 8.1 SP1 includes a new JDBC driver from BEA for connecting
    to a Microsoft SQL Server database. The BEA WebLogic Type 4 JDBC MS SQL
    Server driver replaces the WebLogic jDriver for Microsoft SQL Server, which
    is deprecated. The new driver offers JDBC
    3.0 compliance, support for some JDBC 2.0 extensions, and better
    performance. BEA recommends that you use the new BEA WebLogic Type 4 JDBC MS
    SQL Server driver in place of the WebLogic jDriver for Microsoft SQL
    Server."
    Do we have to install sp1 or sp2 to work with this driver. How can we get
    sp1 ,
    Thanks,

    Where did the Driver file place?
    You can copy the driver file to the JAVA_HOME/lib
    folderDo not put that JDBC JAR in JAVA_HOME/lib.
    You should put it someplace close to your app and add it to the CLASSPATH when you compile and run?
    Geez, doesn't anybody think about a standard directory structure to use for their apps? Put it in a /lib directory with the rest of your app stuff. - MOD
