T61 nvidia driver causes font problems

after my last update a new graphics driver for the nvidia quadro 140m was installed.
the new version (7618) caused bad problems with my fonts. (they could not been displayed)
-> only squares for each letter 
it took me a have day to find out, that it was the graphic driver (i didn't expected that).
After I reinstalled my fontexplorer and repared my windows installation several times,
it took me another half day to find the download to the old driver again. (7471)
ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/pc/pccbbs/mobiles/7kd165ww.exe
now it works again with the old driver and i hope there will be an update and at least a notice in the thinkpad system update.
frustrated greets. 

Hi Puschl636,
I had a similar problem. I have 3.03a of the presentation director and the most current display driver.
If I boot with dual screens, the first time I do it, I have to open the lid to the laptop and then close it after startup and it will usually move to the dual screen profile.
It may be a temp fix, but after that, as long as I have it docked, the dual screens come up.
Hope that helps!
Roy

  • Problem with nvidia driver, causing system to be unusable

    Hello, I've got a problem I assume with nvidia driver. My graphics card is gtx 460, here's my usual glxgears output:

    After random amount of time (usually from 30 mins to ~2hours) something 'breaks' and here's what happens:

    I've tried different desktop environments, under xfce4 it also breaks, i've been testing also nvidia-beta and nvidia-all drivers, but it won't help. After 'breaking' i must restart nvidia module, then all again is working fine.

    Hey Vazz, there is a problem with the nvidia linux drivers/gtx460 hardware, but sadly it only affects a small population.
    There is a thread on the nvidia support forums with many others having more or less the same problems.
    Still no response from nvidia yet...  In the meantime use nouveau.

    It just stops there and won't continue to boot. Disconnecting the SATA cable from my CD drive and using a flash drive to boot fixes these issues, but I didn't continue with the install because I wasn't sure if I would be unable to boot with the drive plugged in later. This is my CD drive. It's connected to a SATA 6GB/s port on my motherboard. The drive works perfectly in Windows.
    Also, if anyone knows anything about the USB error, help would be appreciated. That was the only error that did not go away after disconnecting my CD drive. I only have a keyboard, mouse, and WiFi dongle plugged in.

    Your issue with the SATA disc drive is a problem with Udev. Namely that some SATA disc drives do not support 16-byte pass-through commands coming from Udev. See this post for a longer explanation and the correct workaround:
    https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=895404
    Other guides online will say to comment out parts of Udev's 60-persistent-storage.rules file, but I have found that to not only not work, but mess up detection of the SATA hard drives.
    So, after, or during, Arch installation using your USB stick:
    Add
    options libata atapi_passthru16=0
    to /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf
    Add
    FILES="/etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf"
    to /etc/mkinitcpio.conf
    Rebuild kernel image with:
    mkinitcpio -p linux
    reboot
    To narrow down your USB issue, maybe you could try booting with only one plugged in at a time to identify which one has the issue. Do they all three work even though one gives this message?

  • Yosemite causes font problem in Chrome

    Does ANYBODY know how to get fonts to display correctly in Chrome since the update to Yosemite? I so regret doing the update because all my Helvetica displays as an A inside a square. I have searched in all friggin forums about this and nobody has a solution that works. Please holler if you are a superstar and have a solution.
    <3
    Angela

    Would you work around this by keeping on doing the sudo every time you restart the computer
    No, as you're then just patching a recurring issue every day. Something is causing the problem.
    When clearing the caches initially works and then comes back, it's probably either corrupt fonts, or third party fonts you've installed that conflict with some of the newly installed system fonts.
    Since you just recently installed Yosemite, it's a pretty good bet the OS X supplied fonts are not the issue. That leaves third party fonts you've installed. Create a new folder on the desktop. With Finder showing as the active app at the upper left next to the Apple logo, hold the Option key and choose Go > Library from the menu bar. This open the Library folder in your user account. Open the Fonts folder. If there are any fonts in that folder, move all of them to the new folder you created on the desktop.
    Next, launch Font Book. With FB in the foreground, choose the option on the menu bar to Restore Standard Fonts. This will move any third party fonts in the root /Library/Fonts/ folder to a new folder right next to it named Fonts (Removed). The only ones remaining will be those installed by OS X. It will also perform this move to the /System/Library/Fonts/ folder. All that will be left as active fonts in the three main Library folders after that (system, root library, user account) will be those installed by Yosemite.
    Font Book is not a happy camper when fonts are manually removed. It will almost always corrupt its database. So the last steps are to clear Font Book's database, and once again, clear all font cache files from the system.
    1. Restart your Mac and immediately hold down the Shift key when you hear the startup chime to boot into Safe Mode. Keep holding the Shift key until you see a progress bar towards the bottom of the screen. You can let go of the Shift key at that point. Yosemite is a bit different. Whether it's a Safe Mode boot or a normal one, you get the same progress bar. It just takes longer to get to the desktop in Safe Mode. So hold the Shift key until you get to the desktop.
    OS X asks you to log in (you will get this screen on a Safe Mode boot even if your Mac is set to automatically log in). Let the Mac finish booting to the desktop and then restart normally. This will clear Font Book's database and the cache files of the user account you logged into in Safe Mode.
    2. Since the system font cache files are not cleared by a Safe Mode startup, repeat the steps you performed above:
    Close all running applications. From an administrator account, open the Terminal app and enter the following command. You can also copy/paste it from here into the Terminal window:
    sudo atsutil databases -remove
    Terminal will then ask for your admin password. As you type, it will not show anything, so be sure to enter it correctly.
    This removes all font cache files. Both for the system and the current logged in user account. After running the command, close Terminal and immediately restart your Mac.
    That should stop any issues with fonts being displayed incorrectly in all apps. After that, you need to determine which of the third party fonts you have are causing the problem. Use either the Fonts folder in your user account, or create a new folder in the root /Library/Fonts/ folder. You could just name it "test". Drop about 10 fonts into your new folder, or the initially empty user account Fonts folder, at a time. Use the system for a while and see if the problem returns. Keep adding fonts a handful at a time. When the problem reappears, you'll know at least one of the fonts you just reactivated is bad. Pull those back out and once again follow the two steps above. Keep whittling down your third party fonts by means of elimination until you've clearly identified the culprit(s) and delete those fonts.

  • Nvidia driver causes "INIT: Id "x" respawning too fast"

    Hi.  I'm having lot's of trouble getting my nvidia card working.  I checked out more threads than I'd like to list.  Although there's lot's of stuff on this error, there's little on nvidia (more on radeon, but nothing helped so far).  I've looked at
    http://bbs.archbang.org/viewtopic.php?id=2889
    among other arch forum threads and non-arch forum pages too.
    This is a new install on an ASUS N53S.
    During my initial install of Arch, I went with the xf86-video-intel-sna driver because the wiki recommended installing proprietary nvidia drivers after X is working.  The intel driver worked fine and I got my desktop up and running no problem.
    But if I try switching to either the nvidia driver (as per the wiki) or the nouveau driver I get this message at startup (and slim fails to start)
    INIT: Id "x" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes
    If I try "startxfce4", it spits out some stuff, culminating in "Fatal server error: no screens found"
    The card is NVIDIA GeForce GT550M
    I can't tell if the problem is with the driver, xorg.conf, or slim (or something else).  Any help would be great.  Thanks.

    Awesome.  Thanks so much for your help.  I just followed the Bumblebee wiki, and it seems to be working.
    When I do "optirun glxspheres", it takes 5 or 6 seconds to run the thing.  Is that normal?
    Also, here https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Bu … VIDIA_card
    I'm not sure what to make of
    options bbswitch load_state=0 unload_state=0
    I check the documentation and their example give values of 0 and 1 respectively.  It's clear what the values mean, but I'm not sure WHAT is being referred to as loaded and unloaded.  What values are the likely ones that I want?

  • [SOLVED] nvidia driver causes blank screen soon after boot

    Hi,
    I have a NVIDIA 560 and was originally using the nouveau driver, but that gave slow performance when doing anything (eg. resizing windows), so I installed the nvidia driver instead by following the wiki section:
    https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/NV … au_drivers
    by essentially just following the scripts given there. After switching to nvidia, the screen goes blank soon after boot. I get back into the system by using nomodeset in menu.cfg.
    My question is how do I even begin to find the problem, eg. what log file(s) should I look in and post?
    Thanks

    Yes it's the 560 Ti. Thanks I just installed straight from the repos. I've also installed cuda-sdk and cuda-toolkit. I've compiled the libraries inside /opt/cuda-sdk/CUDALibraries fine.
    No I go to compile the sdk examples by running make in /opt/cuda-sdk/C and get the following error:

  • External USB Hard Drive causes menu problem - menu items flash

    Greetings:
    I have a external USB hard drive (250 GB) that is partitioned into 3 hard drives. Two hard drives are formatted in MacOS standard and one is formatted in MacOS extended. I had to reformat the last drive in MacOS extended because the Macbook would not let me edit files on the drive.
    The problem is that when I connect to the drives, the menu malfunctions (I cannot see the date and time and the menu items flash). Dismounting the drives solves the problem.
    Do I need to reformat the hard drives? Or do I need a new USB drive?
    Thank you.
    EA

    Hmm, someone else had a similar problem.  Note the ":: Loading root filesystem module...-e" line.  That "-e" shouldn't be there.  It should be, instead, the module for the filesystem.
    As a workaround for right now, you can add your filesystem module to the MODULES array, and remove the "filesystems" hook.
    In that case, you'll probably want rootdelay=* to allow the drive some time to settle, and rootfstype=* to speed up filesystem detection while in kinit.
    By the way, what filesystem do you have on that machine?  Can you tell me what
    /usr/lib/klibc/bin/fstype < /dev/sda1
    outputs on a running system (you may need to be root, or add yourself to the "disk" group or something similar) - /dev/sda1 should be replaced if the usb drive is not sda1

  • Can PS CS6 cause font problems in In-Design CS4?

    When I was running just Adobe Creative Suite 4 I didn't have any problems with the In-Design program. After loading Photoshop CS6 and Illustrator CS6, when trying to print in In-Design CS4, I just get the spinning beach ball!
    I suspect a font problem induced by CS6, but could be off base on this one. I'm running a 2010 Mac Pro. If it's a font problem, whats the best way to attack! Any suggestion will be helpful. Thanks
    Jim

    Do you have any 3rd party fonts installed?

  • Nvidia driver causing problems what should i use?

    Hi,
    Just switched my hard disk to a temporary machine and the nvidia card on it is causing crashes and random freezes on my machine.
    Since its just temporary, I can't be bothered to mess around with the configuration at the moment.
    Could someone please tell me what would be the default driver for me to use?
    I don't have need for compositing or 3d acceleration.
    Thanks in advance,
    Ali

    Well seeing as how you don't need 3d perhaps nouveau might be worth a shot: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Nouveau
    Word is that eventually it will replace the standard "nv" driver and it will be incorporated into the 2.6.33 kernel.  In my experience the nouveau driver is faster than the standard nv.
    To use it you will need to remove your current nvidia drivers and then change your xorg.conf to use nouveau.  In addition you must enable KMS which is easy enough, see the wiki.  I just happened to change from the nvidia blob to nouveau last night after installing KDE 4.4... So far I am satisfied and feel better about supporting the open source driver.

  • T61 NVIDIA driver not working?

    Hello!
    I have a really old T61 (Type 8895) and I updated it to Windows 7 Ultimate 32 Bit from it's original Windows Vista Home Premium recently, which means all the drivers are gone.
    So, I went to Lenovo Support and searched for it's drivers, and one of them was a NVIDIA Quadro NVS 140M (v296.88) driver.
    Each time I try to install it, it tells me: This graphics driver could not find compatible graphics hardware.
    I decided to get a newer driver. So, I went to NVIDIA's website, got the newest driver (v320.00) and still, it would give me the same error.
    So, I googled the problem, still couldn't find the problem I am having.
    What is going on? (I need the laptop for some testing before I decide to get a new laptop and waste money)
    Thanks!
    Sincerly,
    Majid or Mayood00
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Your model 8895 doesn't have nVidia graphics, it has integrated Intel graphics but this is a good thing since the nVidia chips sometimes fail on similar equipped models. You want to install the graphic drivers for the Intel GM965 that matches your windows version.
    If you want a more detailed explanation, the nVidia chips used in T61 series built before August 2008 sometimes fail resulting an need to replace the motherboard. Your system is a 14.1" with standard 4:3 screen. This size was phased out starting in the end of 2007 and general production stopped about May or June. We've never seen any of this size manufactured in August 2008 so the only way to get a board with a Good nVidia chip on one of these is an extremely rare new replacement board. The supply of these boards has been exhausted for years but there were recently a few found still sealed in the original IBM boxes. These rare boards generally cost about what the used laptop is worth, but are still a good investment considering this is the last and best Thinkpad made before the switch to the widescreen format, it's also the only standard screen model that supports 8gb of ram. Many users retrofit these T61 boards into T60 models too since they had better screen options.

  • Ms(8871) and Nvidia driver (44.03) problem

    Hi.
    I have the Gf4 ti4400 (8871) and ive install the driver 44.03.
    My problem is when im Logging in my users account in windows xp. It seem like the card trying to detect all the availlable addapter. when its doing this, the screen is flashing a little bit (like other drivers do) and then im ready to work with the computer. But with this driver (4403) when its flashing a bit, the sound gettin repeattitive like: ta di da-da-da-da-da ti da....
    Its a little problem but anoying. It didnt do that with all the drivers before.
    Anyone have a solution?
    Ghislain

    Ok i found the problem.
    What i think is that in the 44.03 nvidia change the ay they read the configuration of the monitor attached to the card.
    the problem is that i have a old 20 inch monitor t hat use BNC connection and ive read that this kind of connection is not plug and play with the card. So that mean the card can't read the info of the monitopr so the card retry 2-3 time and this is waht causing the flashing et the sound distortion.
    How i found this? simple!  i just read what i say to you on the net and ive switch with a monitor with normal plug and it work!!
    I dont know if nvidia is aware of this but maybe someone should talk to them about this issue...
    I hope this help many user who was in my condition and that tech support is happy to learn somthing from a simple users  :D

  • Carl9170 driver causes kernel problem

    I am an arch linux newb, just switched from ubuntu. However I do know just enough about linux to screw stuff up.
    So, I have a SMCWUSB-N2 (USB atheros wireless N). Don't remember the exact chipset, but I do know the carl9170 driver supports it. The default arch version of carl9170 worked, but with horrible speed and frequent disconnects. So I downloaded the latest compat-wireless, built, and installed it. Now when I plug in the adapter the light on it stays solid (normally blinks with activity) and nothing else happens. Dmesg prints the following when I plug it in:

    Have you installed the firmware? You can download it from here (http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/carl9170) and put it in /lib/firmware.

    Uninstall the device driver for the GT330M.
    Well, let's see, you have to install old buggy not official supporting Windows 7 drivers that came out last summer before the RTM, before you can update to BC 3.1, unlike any PC where you just install the latest motherboard drivers.
    As long as the Assistant prepares a proper Master Boot Record and offset, then Windows 7 should install. It is only after installing that anything actually from Apple gets installed and that is where there can be trouble. Newer Macs have later device drivers but they aren't posted and there is no 3.1+ or 3.2.
    You did everything correctly. Support is weak.

  • NVIDIA driver causes lagginess

    When using NVIDIA drivers for my 9600 GT, Gnome 3 is occasionally laggy, especially when entering Activities. However, the nouveau drivers work perfectly. I need the NVIDIA drivers, though, since I would like to play some graphics intensive games. My drivers are up to date (295.xx), any ideas?

    Awesome.  Thanks so much for your help.  I just followed the Bumblebee wiki, and it seems to be working.
    When I do "optirun glxspheres", it takes 5 or 6 seconds to run the thing.  Is that normal?

    I'm not sure what to make of
    options bbswitch load_state=0 unload_state=0
    I check the documentation and their example give values of 0 and 1 respectively.  It's clear what the values mean, but I'm not sure WHAT is being referred to as loaded and unloaded.  What values are the likely ones that I want?

  • T61, Nvidia 140m windows 8.1 64bit driver

    Recognizing that Windows 8.1 is not officially supported, does anyone have a recommendation for a T61 Nvidia driver version in Win 8.1 64bit ?  I had moved away from the Windows-provided driver initially before discovering that the problem was something else (wireless adapter).  Recent drivers from Nvidia seem to work most of the time.

    Solved!

    Just use the latest nVidia ones, they work perfectly.
