<0> it is likely just an nvidia driver bug
<1> hope so
<1> I want to get back to writing my bushido blade clone
<0> you can use the 'nv' driver for the moment
<0> but you won't have 3d but for the rest your system will be usable
<0> bbl
<1> nah, its stable as long as I don't run sdl programs
<1> the glitch never occurs using allegrogl
<1> afaik at least
<2> you could try another driver version
<1> go earlier?
<1> my card is pretty brand new, I don't know how far back i can go
<1> it could be suse 10.1 too, this distro is the worst suse one I've used yet
<1> I had to manually edit the kernel source thermal.c to prevent it from shutting down as soon as it starts up due to a false thermal tripping point
<1> and the stupid sound card barely works, I don't hear anything without using external speakers cause the volume sliders are missing
<1> its been a nitemare, but I sitll hate coding in windows so I'm sticking with linux and hoping the bugs get fixed someday



<2> well one driver release at least
<2> hmm my CPU gets throttled when it's too hot
<2> I'm on suse 10.1 too though
<2> what sound card have you got?
<2> hda-intel?
<1> hda-intel
<1> yup
<1> thtas funny
<2> tried updating alsa?
<1> yep, makes it worse almost
<2> wave
<1> know how to make it a tad louder though? options snd-hda-intel model=5stack
<1> right now I only got a pcm slider, if I could get access to my external amplifier I could turn on the laptop speakers
<1> see, I got a conexant codec so its all screwed up
<2> you could experimend a bit with the model option
<1> sda-intel usually works ok, but my codec chip is whats messing me up
<1> I've tried every model listed, 5stack is the best
<1> alsa is also really choppy, unless I tell programs to use oss, my sound quality is really poor
<2> hmm
<1> until my gl programs started freezing, that was my only big problem
<1> kommerck, are you on a laptop?
<2> well wave had bad experience with snd-hda-intel but he managed to get everything working
<2> lghtsword: yes
<1> what kind
<2> got a geforce go 5200 though
<2> dell 5150
<1> oh
<1> yea, dells aren't bad
<1> hp always has had serious problems with linux
<1> in my experience
<2> well acpi is fscked up here
<2> but other than that it works fine
<1> acpi works good on this, a few warning messages here and there
<2> e.g. power button and lid close events don't get captured
<2> and suspend to ram fails
<1> oh damn, that ****s
<1> suspend to ram fails here too, suspend to disk works though
<2> yeah I use suspend to disk all the time anyway
<1> I thought that is what was causing my gl lockups too but today I freshley booted running from ac power source and it happened
<2> no, gl works fine after resuming
<1> yea it seems to
<2> btw you could try to boot with "noapic"
<1> what's that do
<1> if that disables acpi, I don't want to do that
<1> cause I use it to monitor my cpu throttling, battery and lid closing events
<2> it's not noacpi
<2> apic = Advanced Programmable Interrupt Controller
<1> ohh
<1> any bad things happen when you turn that off?
<2> well I don't think it would cause data loss.....
<1> slow anything down?
<2> well you can test boot with it
<2> when you type that in grub it's valid only until reboot
<1> yea I figured that
<1> it probably just makes the kernel a slight bit less efficient
<1> ok let me go for that option
<1> thanks for your input
<3> ay yi yiyi
<3> i love frito's corn chips i love them i do
<4> i take dem from you
<5> Hi all, I've installed Ubuntu Dapper on one of my machines, and I installed the NVIDIA driver through Easyubuntu. In order to switch to the nvidia driver, I just changed the "nv" entry to "nvidia" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf. Everything sems to work fine, except that as soon as X starts, my fan stops spinning. Is there a reason why this happens, and how can I fix it?



<6> hey guys
<7> lasindi, you should do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
<6> FunnyLookinHat: can I ask your opinion here?
<7> Sure
<6> FunnyLookinHat: http://eulex.zapto.org/megabyte/Drawings/Gnome_Tails_Computer.png
<6> what do you think?
<7> heh, it's cute
<7> the arms are to stick-like though
<7> and legs
<6> FunnyLookinHat: I've just drawn it :)
<7> You sure do post a lot of pictures in this channel : )
<6> FunnyLookinHat: http://eulex.zapto.org/megabyte/Drawings/gnome_tails.png
<6> here's the original :)
<6> yes
<6> I do
<6> it's been a while though
<6> I head a bitch headache with my system
<7> heh, cool
<7> i gotta go though, sorry ^_^
<6> FunnyLookinHat: Ok, see you
<5> FunnyLookinHat: okay, I just tried that, but it didn't work
<5> *I should note that I meant my GPU fan, not any other fans (which is why I suspect my NVIDIA driver)
<5> Oh
<5> Well, help from anyone else is appreciated
<7> lasindi, ask in #ubuntu
<7> (still afk)
<5> Alrighty
<8> A driver version that will work well with an old card (Vanta LT)?
<9> can someone please help me out with an Nvidia card i just got?
<10> Can someone look at a kernel crash trace and tell me what actually crashed, as I'm confused: http://paste.husk.org/6093
<10> I've been playing with a buggy finepix driver, and I totally would expect it to crash, however that trace seems to indicate that the crash happened inside nvidia driver?
<10> my understanding is that finepix driver has caused nvidia driver to crash, but I don't analyse kernel crashes every day and may be wrong
<11> hello
<11> A while ago, I used nvidia-settings to get temperature of my geforce 6800, but when I start nvidia-settings today, there is no topic witch will contain the temperature. Is this removed from the driver?
<11> I'm on Gentoo with an AMD64 it it matters
<2> I doubt it
<11> so, howcome it doesn't show up now? =)
<0> nvclock will allways show the temperature ;) (use the cvs version)
<11> Thunderbird: hello, long time.. =)
<11> Thunderbird: where can I get the cvs version then? =)
<0> http://www.sf.net/projects/nvclock
<0> (module nvclock)
<12> Thunderbird: did you ever look into softquadro stuff?
<12> like the new pci express id reprogramming stuff used with rivatuner
<11> Thunderbird: ahh, thanks
<12> or whatever it uses
<12> or looks like it only uses software layer to claim it has a different id
<0> it is possible to change the pci id
<0> for a certain number of cards
<0> on windows this seems to be enough for some cards
<0> but on linux there are some more protetions I think (not sure)
<0> haven't looked at it recently
<0> is there some new stuff in rivatuner then?
<12> probably overrides os functionality
<12> in linux that is
<12> it has softquadro for 6600 A2 and 6800
<0> it is very easy to get the pci id, nvidia could allways check it in the bios (if the bios is the orignal one ..)
<0> I think it is just the pci id reprogramming; I could look at it
<0> the problem is that my time is very limited
<12> hardly a life threatening issue for me, heh
<0> got to finish a university project; when it is done I'll finally have vacation
<0> there's still some work to do
<11> Thunderbird: hmm, something is wrong with cvs....
<11> -- Sensor info --
<11> Sensor: (null)
<11> Fanspeed: 100.0%
<11> fanspeed is ok, but null?
<0> I guess the sensor isn't detected
<0> did you change anything about your card? (bios change or something like that)
<0> oh, wait you are using a 6800
<0> but still did you do anything special?
<11> no, nothing has changed...
<0> you also didn't play with the nvidia i2c interface?
