Another fresh install of Hardy, downloaded all updates 18/08/08 and used restricted drivers manager to add nvidia driver. Same problems occurring, but this time I followed advice at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto and have improved screen resolution issues.
Specifically: - added Horizsync and Vertrefresh ranges to xorg.conf - added modelines (generated from http://xtiming.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/xtiming.pl) to Monitor section - added Display subsection within Screen to specify modes Still can't get [EMAIL PROTECTED], which is supposed to be native resolution of monitor. When this is operational the screen is misaligned on the monitor (shifted to the right and down) and the colours are very wrong, with everything in shades of green. Simply changing to 1280x800 through System->Preferences works though, although problems persist with login screen. 3D hardware acceleration appears to work - i.e. desktop effects and 3D games seem to run very well. Not sure how to do any more comprehensive tests of the card though. Xorg.conf attached. ** Attachment added: "xorg.conf" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/16977731/xorg.conf -- Hardware Drivers error for nvidia in hardy (2.6.24.19) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/251832 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
