I am currently using crunchbang 11 32bit, on a laptop with Atom D2500/GMA3600. Does anyone know how to install a more modern driver - rather than the gma500? Is this even possible?

Here is the outpt of the command "lshw -c video" , which I ran as an Superuser product: 82Q963/Q965 Integrated Graphics Controller vendor: Intel Corporation physical id: 2 bus info: pci@0000:00:02.0 version: 02 width: 64 bits clock: 33MHz

I have a MotionComputing M1400 pen tablet. It runs Debian Squeeze, and today I noticed it was using software rendering for OpenGL, so I decided to try to use the intel driver. My chipset is the Intel 855GM. When I initially installed Debian, I had to modify xorg.conf so it would pick up my pen. That /etc/X11/xorg.conf is [here](http://pastebin.com/MMWRYJBq) . To install the driver, I added the ppa ppa:glasen/intel-driver and ran sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel. Upon reboot, my cursor is visible, but I'm sitting at a black screen. My cursor changes to a text selection cursor when I move it over certain parts of the screen, which seem to be the login prompt. I went into tty6 and stopped gdm3 with /etc/init.d/gdm3 stop and then tried Xorg -configure, which failed. [Here](http://pastebin.com/BMJjxzwM) is the log file it produced. I tried to combine the xorg.conf.new it created with my original xorg.conf into a new xorg.conf, which is [here](http://pastebin.com/r2BKRhvH) , but that didn't work either. What should I do to get a graphical interface back?

I have a:

Compaq 610 VC275EA 15,6" WXGA i CELERON T1500

and I installed Fedora 14 on it. Everything is great, except one: the aspect ratio of the screen is not very good :\

I'm having trouble in a notebook with debian, but for the avoidance of doubt guess I better tell the story of his free-software life (if you do not want to read, jump to **problems**) It is a CCE Win i30s, is four years old. It came with an Intel Atom D2500 @ 1.86x2 and Intel GMA 3600 Integrated video adapter (based on the PowerVR SGX 545), and a Realtek wireless rtl8192ce In 2013 I decided to install a linux on it, but faced many difficulties: Nothing worked My GMA 3600 simply does not work with its drivers/modules open source, only with the owner driver (windows). I tested Ubuntu, Mint, Fedora, Slackware (someone tested to me) and Arch (two days ago) and none of them worked the video: the screen crashs as you can see in the following photo I posted my problem in n forums, including Intel forum, which they just said to me "My recommendation is to install the operating system validated to discard issues." At the time the only OS Linux-based that worked was the Debian Wheezy (Jessie or later gave the same error). Yesterday I found out that it works because it uses kernel 3.2, which has no support for the video adapter in the kernel (which was placed from 3.3, according to the Arch Linux wiki) Xorg loads a generic video module (VESA) and could get the maximum resolution for notebook display (1366x768) without 3D acceleration, but for me it was enough. But had some problems like not expand the display on external monitors (only duplicate), do not come back from a suspension and not change the brightness. After all this time I decided to play with it again. Installed Debian Wheezy 7.9 with netinst image and not installed the graphics or the network with the installer, I decided to do it by hand to let through 'minimalist' and learn a little about installation. Anyway, I managed, everything was working as expected on my custom Mate-desktop (with transparency, which the gnome refused to give me in the past) so I decided to go to fight and upgrade. I arranged so that the kernel was not upgraded (removed the linux-image-686-pae meta-package), I changed the repositories for jessie and did a dist-upgrade After updated, all normal functioning, despite the same inconveniences previously mentioned. I took courage and after a few reboots did the same process but now for testing After restarted the notebook, I noticed that the system had changed from SystemV to systemd (testing standard) and that there were improvements! Now multiple resolution options are supported by the notebook display, the expansion to an external screen is working and he returns the suspended state without crashing! (This is the merit SystemV or Xorg?) **problems** However not everything is perfect: the screen is presenting flaws in rendering that are making me nervous. To explain better you can watch the video below: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FeejXdnpr60 I have no idea what it is. Here Xorg.0.log: (link in comments) But the worst of the problems are in the wireless network: it is no longer detected. Neither the ifconfig or iwconfig or rfkill detect the wireless adapter, despite the lspci detect and contain it in rules.d Here the outputs that I found: # lspci | grep -e -e Ethernet Network 02: 00.0 Network controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.

I am working with an embedded board which includes an **Intel Atom N2600** processor and a GPU **GMA 3600** series based on the PowerVR SGX 545 graphics core (developed by Imagination) [[Link1]][1] . As far as I know, Intel just offers Windows 7 support for its GPU through a driver in Link2 . In my case, I am working under **Linux**, so I need to know if there exists any possibility of enabling the GPU capabilities using any compatible driver loaded when X server is started. Is this impossible? Does the driver just go with a 3.2 Linux kernel, such as in this answer Link3 ?

I have an Intel graphics card, of which I can't tell whether or not it's being recognized. When I go through GUI to the System Info section, it states that my graphics card is unknown. Despite this, my lspci displays the graphics card perfectly fine. **Question** Is there any way to get OpenGL working correctly on Ubuntu 11.10, or, if this isn't possible (due to my graphics card), would there be any other distros recommended as far as getting this work? **lspci** 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family DRAM Controller (rev 09) 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09) 00:16.0 Communication controller: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family MEI Controller #1 (rev 04) 00:1a.0 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family USB Enhanced Host Controller #2 (rev 04) 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family High Definition Audio Controller (rev 04) 00:1c.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family PCI Express Root Port 1 (rev b4) 00:1c.1 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family PCI Express Root Port 2 (rev b4) 00:1d.0 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family USB Enhanced Host Controller #1 (rev 04) 00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation HM65 Express Chipset Family LPC Controller (rev 04) 00:1f.2 SATA controller: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family 6 port SATA AHCI Controller (rev 04) 00:1f.3 SMBus: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family SMBus Controller (rev 04) 02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetLink BCM57785 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe (rev 10) 02:00.1 SD Host controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM57765 Memory Card Reader (rev 10) 02:00.2 System peripheral: Broadcom Corporation Device 16be (rev 10) 02:00.3 System peripheral: Broadcom Corporation Device 16bf (rev 10) 03:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Centrino Advanced-N 6205 (rev 34)

So I was messing around. I installed debian, everything worked fine. I had to re-install debian for whatever reason. It decided to do something different and now I'm stuck with a 800x600 resolution (display settings don't allow me to go above). I think my problem is similar to this one: http://crunchbanglinux.org/forums/topic/18658/eeepc-intel-cedarview-resolution/ because I'm pretty sure that it's using the VESA driver. Now I'm hoping I can change VESA to the appropriate intel driver. My questions are: 1. how would I change to using the appropriate intel graphics driver (gma3600) ? 2. would changing this driver require reinstalling the operating system? (there was talk of this in the thread I linked to). Or which kernel do I need to have? Part of the reason why I'm asking is because this seems to require a lot of sensitive configuration and I don't want to spend the next couple of hours (days) troubleshooting. If it makes any difference the processor is an intel atom N2600.

I've just installed OpenBSD 5.2 on my desktop computer and I can't get the X Window System to work. My graphics card is Intel GMA X4500. When I run startx, my system freezes and no keyboard interaction is possible. So I perform a hard reset. Moreover, X -configure gives me segmentation faults and the X configuration is aborted. Has anyone managed to get Intel GMA X4500 and X working perfectly?

I have a 8,3 MacBook Pro with an onboard Radeon 6700M GPU alongside the integrated Intel Sandy Bridge GPU. I recently upgraded to FGLRX 8.930/12.1, and Catalyst Control Center seemed to look the same, there weren't any different options as opposed to 8.920/11.12. However, [here](http://linux-hybrid-graphics.blogspot.com/2012/01/improved-support-for-amd-hybrid.html) it mentions that someone tested things out and was able to determine that with FGLRX on the same card as me, they were able to determine that GPU switching was, in fact, working. Unfortunately, the blog doesn't allow comments, so I can't ask this question there. Is there a way for me to determine if GPU switching is working or not between ATI and Intel cards? How can I know if it's working or not? Again, there doesn't seem to be anything in CCC that tells me whether it's enabled or not. There's "PowerPlay," but that seems to be more of a setting for battery-saving in general and doesn't make any mention of GPU switching. How can I test if GPU-switching/hybrid graphics is enabled and working on my Ubuntu 11.10 machine?

I am trying to use Mutter with my Intel GMA 4500MHD (on my Thinkpad T400) in Debian Wheezy. However, it says: > Not using GLX TFP and some effects get very slow. How can I fix that?
