Xorg.conf file idea..

i had an idea: would it be possible to make a large database of xorg.conf files for certain laptops? i found a list of "howto linux" on different models of lappys...
for example, i have a sony vaio pcg-tr3a, and i'm struggling to get my xorg file to work right, so i would head on over to the data base and search for my computer model...
would this work?
sv

<soapbox>
ok. so i guess this idea would not work.. now i am seeing but how bout if laptop users just wrote a wiki entry for there laptop? like... hardware specific stuff...
for example: i figured out that i have an intel wireless card and i needed a closed source intel2200-fw or something to get it to work. i went to the wireless networking wiki, but how bout it if i could have found a wiki on my model lappy (fat chance maybe...?)
that said : "ok, for this lappy you need 915resolution hack, intel firmware driver for your wirless, and i810driver for your graphics, also you may want to add this to your xorg.conf to get trackpad scrolling to work" and then also "and btw, to get Fn keys working go here"
so it would be small tutorials helpful to few people with same laptops and it would be extremly confinient... and for someone just getting into linux... a quick guide to get everything set up right step by step would be helpful.. granted, arch does not hold your hand... and i think it shouild be that way... we learn a lot trying different things and reading wikis over and over again...
</soapbox>
ok, thats all

  • Xorg.conf file after install? Where?

    I know this is probably the worst question to ask but I couldn't find anything in the search for it.  I just installed Arch (using a .7 CD) with an FTP install and naturally it chose the xorg7 version.  His XServer starts alright but I noticed we both can't seem to find the xorg.conf file... usually it's in the /etc/X11/ folder (I think that's where it is on mine at home.)
    The mouse, screen and almost everything works but for the life of me I can't find this configuration file.  Does it use defaults if one doesn't exist or perhaps it's somewhere I'm not looking?  Any advice would be appreciated as it isn't using the nvidia glx drivers but the basic nv.
    Thanks in advance.
    (Forgot to mention I'm used to using the X.org 6 version on my home PC and just trying to figure this out before I upgrade to 7.)

    mac57 wrote:Alternately, you can just copy an old xorg.conf from another distro you have been using, place it in /etc/X11/xorg.conf and edit appropriately. This is what I did, and it worked like a champ.
    You'll want to be carefull about that with xorg7. The path locations will change then. It may be better to generate a new one and copy in the difference in options.

  • [Solvedish] Can color depth be changed in X with no xorg.conf file?

    I have a laptop that's working perfectly with no xorg.conf file except for the color depth is at 16 and I want it at 24. Can color depth be changed in X with no xorg.conf file? (I already tried the amazing three line xorg.conf file to no avail.)

    Won't work on a running X session, and has the same effect as the aforementioned xorg.conf file if run before starting X.
    I may just have to make a new xorg.conf file. The last one decided it hated some upgrade I made and started wreaking havoc all over my system. Crashes and lockups and flickers galore!
    --EDIT--
    It turns out that the xf86-video-intel driver was my problem all along. I reverted to the i810 driver and my xorg file works again (it has more than three lines).

  • Easy Switch between xorg.conf files enable disable tvout

    Hello,
    This is my first post on this forum, so i'am not sure were to put my post, but i think here is the best place
    summary:
    Easy Switch between xorg.conf files, and enable/disable startup applications. Script does this:
    detect which xorg.conf file is used and then depending on which one is used do 1 or 2:
    1. copy tvout.conf to xorg.conf and disable all startup applications + enable one or more startup application(s) defined in the script startupappsoff
    2. copy xorg.conf.backup to xorg.conf and enable all startup applications + disable one or more startup application(s) defined in the script startupappson
    I thought it would be nice to share the script i created for an easy switch between two xorg.conf files. Myself preferred to switch between two xorg files for personal need.
    Beside only switching between two xorg.conf files i would like to enable/disable some startup apps, therefor i created the scripts startupappsoff and startupappson.
    If you want to use these scripts, look in this code for comments, and custimize at the points A. to I. Further read the comments on top of each script.
    If something is not clear or is not correct, your free to ask!
    have fun!
    The script to be run to switch:
    tvout
    #!/bin/sh
    #summary: This programm switches xorg.conf file with an other and back. Also it calls the programms startupappsoff and startupappson.
    #in order to get this as a command, copy this program to: /usr/bin/
    #to execute without password, add: <username> ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/tvout (replace <username> with your own)
    #A. this script needs to recorgnize the different xorg.conf files you want to use. So put on top of your xorg.conf files in the first line: #tvout or #original
    var1=$(head -1 /etc/X11/xorg.conf)
    if [ $var1 == "#original" ]
    then
    #B. put here the path to your own custimized xorg.conf
    sudo cp /mnt/data1/Arch\ Files/xorg.conf.tvout /etc/X11/xorg.conf
    zenity --info --text 'tv-out enabled, to switch press CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE'
    #C. put here the path to startupappsoff and change username
    su rob /mnt/data1/Arch\ Files/startupappsoff
    fi
    if [ $var1 == "#tvout" ]
    then
    #D. put here the path to your backuped xorg.conf or second custimized xorg.conf
    sudo cp /mnt/data1/Arch\ Files/xorg.conf.backup /etc/X11/xorg.conf
    zenity --info --text 'tft-out enabled, to switch press CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE'
    #E. put here the path to startupappson and change username

    startupappsoff

    for file in $(ls ~/.config/autostart/);

    Many thanks, I am actually using your script minus the app changing script - to change my xorg from my dual screen display to a single screen display and my s-video tvout.
    Now I need to tune my xorg to work, but I am trying to add the <username> ALL=NOPASSWD for the script to work without password but I do not know where to add the line and the format of the line?
    Again many thanks for your script,
    looking forward for your reply,
    Regards

  • Xorg.conf file just for synaptics trackpad ?

    I have a problem at the moment with my laptops synaptics trackpad.
    every other distro the trackpad side scrolling works fine but with Arch it only works with an xorg.conf (it did on Xorg 1.5 anyway)
    If I use hotplugging the side scrolling works but after 5 or 10 mins just stops working until I reboot the machine. I have even added the settings into the .fdi file for hotplugging and still it fails after a short while.
    I have only been succesfull when using an xorg.conf but after upgrading to Xorg 1.6 using a xorg.conf has just been a headache (keyboard not working and even kernel panics)
    so is it possible to just have my synaptics settings in a xorg.conf and let hotplugging sort the rest ?
    cheers

    You need to set it up in a hal configuration file just like you would do with your keyboard.

  • [solved] aticonfig fails to create a working xorg.conf file (fglrx)

    I have problems setting up fglrx for my ATI Mobility 200:
    01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon XPRESS 200M 5955 (PCIE)
    I followed the instructions in the Wiki but when I run
    aticonfig --initial
    and restart X gives me a "no screens" error and drops back to command line. I should mention that I have X running without problems with the vesa driver.
    I have tried to change my driver manually in xorg.conf to fgrlx and have loaded the module in rc.conf according to other forum posts.

  • Autogen'ning an xorg.conf file?

    If you start X without a config, it configures itself automatically.  Is there a way I can snag the settings it decided to use and make a config (that I can tweak a bit?)

    The two have to be the same: can you paste the relevant sections of the generated xorg.conf (Section "Device" and Section "Screen")
    All you really need as far as device goes is:
    Identifier "Name"
    Driver "nv"
    BusID "PCI:1:0:0" # most likely, but who knows
    Also you might want to check in some logs /var/log/X.0.log or similar to see which drivers are being loaded in the noconfig state (then specify that driver).
    And lastly, you gotta be sure that you are actually running with those respective xorg.confs.
    Or, you could just change the wrong stuff wrongly detected without an /etc/X11/xorg.conf at runtime via xrandr, xset, or xsetkbmap (or as an argument to xinit or startx (check some manpages for that)

  • Sample xorg.conf files not found

    Hi, everyone
    I'm installing xorg, and need to refer some sample xorg.conf, but some of the links on the xorg wiki are not found. I think they should be updated.

    Thank you for reply!
    I have set up gnome, but using open source driver (vesa) for my  graphic card (VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc M22 [Mobility Radeon X300])

    so then I installed xf86-video-intel,
    using that driver with a blank xorg.conf , I get 3 terminal windows and xclock,  but my mouse and keyboard don't seem to do anything

    I download xf86-video-fbdev just for fun before I saw your post, I didn't do anything as far as I could see.
    I commented these lines out:
    FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/Type1"
    Load "record"
    Load "type1"
    B, I didn't install any fonts but now I installed a buch of random fonts:
    pacman -S ttf-ms-fonts ttf-cheapskate artwiz-fonts xorg-fonts-75dpi xorg-fonts-100dpi
    and did some of what the X.org configuration wiki said:
    fc-cache -fv
    /usr/bin/fc-cache
    /usr/bin/mkfontscale
    /usr/bin/mkfontdir
    ln -s /usr/share/fonts/encodings/encodings.dir encodings.dir
    Then this I changed this:
    Section "Device"
    Identifier "Card0"
    Driver "intel"
    VendorName "All"
    BoardName "All"
    EndSection
    EDIT, halfway through this post I realized I type in biagio's code wrong, I re-typed it and now my X works!

  • Set permanent monitor refresh rate without xorg.conf

    Hi everyone,
    Came back to archlinux, made a clean install with gnome 3. Found out that my GDM and Gnome monitor refresh rate is wrong. For GDM I solved it by adding   xrandr -s 1024x768 -r 85 to the gdm init script. Maybe it's ugly, but at least working. I've got no xorg.conf and I don't want to create it only because of this problem. Using GUI screen settings in System preferences I managed only to set permanently correct resolution (1024x768) but the refresh rate cannot be changed there, so every time I boot now I have correct resolution and refresh rate for GDM, but after login I have 1024x768@60 only, so I have to manually issue   'xrandr -r 85' every time I login. Can I fix it without creating xorg.conf file under /etc/X11? What I already tried was creating the config file under  /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/  and set proper resolution and refresh rate there, but it didn't help. If someone has advice or idea, i will be very grateful. Thanks a lot in advance.

    I think you need to specify the values from the manufacturer's website.
    Here's my /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-monitor.conf:
    Section "Monitor"
    Identifier "Monitor0"
    VendorName "DELL"
    ModelName "U2311H"
    HorizSync 30.0 - 83.0
    VertRefresh 56.0 - 76.0
    Option "DPMS"

    I probably don't need to specify "Driver" with open-source drivers, but it's easier to just replace it with "nvidia", since I sometimes switch to the proprietary ones.

  • No xorg.conf and x3100 slow performance

    I recently installed Arch Linux on my laptop and almost everything is working fine.  Some time ago,  I used to use a tool that detects my hardware and generates a xorg.conf, but this time, I installed Arch and X is running fine without xorg.conf.
    However, I have a problem with 3D Aceleration. My 3D card is Intel x3100 (GM965). (I installed xf86-video-intel driver) 3D aceleration is very slow. Ive run glxinfo and it shows only NONE and SLOW flags. Some simple opengl games like supertux run very very slow.
    Ive tried to copy and paste a xorg file from a x3100 user, but X didnt work at all. What can I do to enable 3D aceleration. Thanks in advance
    EDIT: I was really happy I didnt have to write a xorg.conf file. Will I have to?

    Thanks for your answer
    I've tried adding this "ServerLayout" layout section and it gives me the same fatal error from X: "no screen founds"

  • A single screen resolution in xorg.conf, YET X11 still startups wrong

    Hi. There's something that has been bugging me for a while. When I boot the first time my thinkpad SL500, usually (95% of the cases) X sets the resolution to 1024x768. Yet the ONLY screen res available in xorg.conf is 1280 x 800. In order to get to 1280x 800 I init 4 && init 5 every time. Why is this and how to fix it?

    As you can see, there's also a problem with the keyboard. How to get it working? Currently the keyboard layout is set via my DM.
    Thanks.

    As I understand it your xorg.conf file needs fixing: you have 3 modelines:
    Modeline "1280x800@60" 83.91 1280 1312 1624 1656 800 816 824 841
    Modeline "1280x800" 104.35 1280 1360 1496 1712 800 801 804 835
    Modeline "1280x800" 88.68 1280 1352 1488 1696 800 801 804 830
    in the Monitor section. Two of them have the same name, and in the in the Display section you are referring to a fourth mode "1280x800_60.00" that is never defined before.
    Instead find out the correct mode from you monitor specs, then compute its modeline via cvt, then put that modeline into the Monitor section and refer to it in the display section.

  • Creation of Functional, Minimal, and Correct Xorg.conf [SOLVED]

    Being fairly new to GNU/Linux in general, and totally green in doing things myself, I foolishly avoided the building of an xorg.conf. Following the beginner's guide in the wiki, I just did an "xorg --configure" which created a base xorg.conf for me. It worked, and I noticed no problems in the general use of my window manager (xmonad). I have an ATI Mobility Radeon X1300.
    I discovered today that I was using the radeonhd driver which was giving me terrible performance in OpenGL applications, so edited xorg.conf to revert back to the plain radeon driver. Upon restarting X, my performance problems were gone, but my fonts in the Firefox interface devolved... I have taken this a wakeup call to actually write a good xorg.conf and to understand what everything in it is for.
    I have done plenty of configuration, though I have never before looked into editing the dreaded xorg.conf, coming from Ubuntu, so I know very little. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Specifics:
    What parts are necessary?
    How do I get the fonts I had before back?
    Graphics is all that concerns me, I have no strange input devices, and my touchpad works fine (I configured the fdi files for that).
    I will list my current xorg.conf below. Fonts worked before I changed the driver from radeonhd to radeon and enabled the option for EXA. Before these changes, all the text contained therein was created automagically by xorg. I have a feeling most of this is unnecessary.

    X searches all of the directories that you had in your original xorg.conf file, and it will load whatever it needs automatically. I don't think your problem is specifically with xorg.conf (or lack of), I think what you're seeing is the DPI changing between drivers.
    Try this with each driver loaded and see if they're different:
    xdpyinfo | grep resolution
    Ah, yes indeed!
    radeonhd: 96x96
    radeon: 129x127
    How do I get X with the radeon driver to use 96x96?
    EDIT: Adding a dpi argument of 96 to /etc/X11/xinit/xserverrc fixed the problem. I didn't occur to me that the two drivers would use different dpis.
    Thank you so much!

  • After upgrade, options in xorg.conf seem to be ignored

    I have a dual-monitor configuration. Although similar, both screens are not identical, so I wanted the slightly larger screen to be the primary screen, and on the left side.
    After the installation of Arch Linux, the default configuration was the opposite, i.e. the smaller screen, which is on my right, was identified as the primary screen, and displayed the left part of the desktop. So, I looked for some solution, and I came up with the options "RightOf" and "Primary" which I wrote in the xorg.conf file.

    Thanks in advance!

    no, my graphics card has Hypermemory (where it has dedicated memory, but allows you to add system memory for use as well).  So i was on a forum ( www.notebookanalysis.com ) that deals only with my model of notebook, and saw someone with the same blank screen as mine, so they go it to work by using only shared video memory.  So i changed that and it worked.
    When i type glxinfo i get this:

    which tells me that DRI is enabled.....however after running glxinfo, it gives me the information above, but does not bring me back to a command line, almost as if it is frozen.  There are several other applications that freeze constantly while using them.

    i see fglrx is loaded along with agpgart and amd64_agp..... does this mean that my modules are looking for external agpgart?
    I am using the archck kernel because i thought that was the only way i could use the ati-drivers package from community.....
    I have also tried re-running the fglrxconfig, but it hasnt solved anything.
    Any help would be appreciated!!
    Thanks in advance!
