Installing Nvidia Proprietary Driver 343 On Ubuntu (Unity)/Linux Mint (Cinnamon) X64

Hey guys. So I just went out and bought a Sager 8268-s (clevo p150sm-a) With an i7 4910mq and a Nvidia 980m gt. As I am a computer tech by trade, every time i see Windows i get horrible PTSD so i decided to try Linux instead. After many hours of trying to get a dual boot working finally got Linux Mint 17 Cinnamon installed on my computer, but when I went to install the Nvidia driver it landed me in fallback mode which I could not escape. So then I tried Ubuntu 14.04 LTS thinking maybe Mint was incompatible with the driver and the same thing happened.

So here is my method:

(sorry i don't know how to make a code box :/ )

First I log in to get root access:

$ su

Then I Update the xorg:

$ sudo apt-add-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa

Then update my system:

$ sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Then i go into Virtual terminal (Ctrl+Alt+F1) and disable the display manager:

$ sudo service mdm (or lightdm for Ubuntu) stop

Then i install the drivers which i have done multiple ways:

$ sudo apt-get install nvidia-current nvidia-settings

or

$ sudo apt-get install nvidia-343 nvidia-settings

or by downloading the driver from Nvidia (first designating the file as executable)

$ sudo sh nvidia.run && sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings

Then after install, I create the config file:

$ sudo nvidia-xconfig

Then I reboot. After I get the low res mode in Ubuntu or fallback mode in Mint and Driver manager doesn't detect any proprietary drivers and I have to reinstall to get the OS working again. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

How To Simplify Installation Of Kvm

FreeRDP Commands Not Working On Raspberry Pi 2 (Raspbian)

Hello guys!

First thing to be said is, that I am not native English speaker and I hope my english will be sufficient for this problem.

I am trying to make some kind of thin client from my Raspberry Pi 2.
I put Raspbian Wheezy distribution inside.

After I tried different clients (rdesktop, remmina, xrdp) I found FreeRDP, that looks like what I was looking for.

After the setup and network configuration of my Raspbian I updated repositories and installed freerdp through
Quote:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install freerdp
Their wiki says that there are 2 forms of commands. The newer one (through /PARAMETER) and older one (through -PARAMETER)
https://github.com/FreeRDP/FreeRDP/w...dLineInterface

How do I get new commands to work? I thought that apt-get install freerdp would bring me the newest version. My version is 1.0.1 and I am not sure if it is the newest version.

I need to run my rdp client from shell, that is why I refused to use remmina.

I hope i explained my problem weell enough.

Thank you for any suggestions.

Struggling To Uninstall Serviio

Hi all,

Newbie here. I've done plenty of research before coming to ask for help.

I installed the latest version of Serviio, which has a bug and I'm trying to reinstall an older version. I'm using Ubuntu and manually installed serviio, this sudo apt-get remove doesn't work.

I followed some advice and removed the folder, however when I install the older version, the console comes up with the latest version.

How can I completely remove all trace and history of serviio?

Thanks,

Dave

"New Software Can't Be Installed" Ubuntu 14.04

Hi,

This problem seems to have some common solutions, none of which have worked for me so far.

I get this when opening software center in the past few hours:

"New software can't be installed, because there is a problem with the software currently installed. Do you want to repair this problem now?"

Clicking "repair" several times hasn't fixed it, nor have commands like:

Code:
sudo apt-get -f install

and

Code:
sudo apt-get upgrade

Though these have been mentioned elsewhere as solutions for a few people.

My OS otherwise seems to run pretty normally, as far as someone as green as me can tell.

Any fixes for this? I'd hate to format again, especially since my complicated Steam setup takes so long to complete. Thanks!

Cannot Set Up Multiple Monitors With J5create VGA Display Adapter

Just installed unbuntu version 4.3.11(1)-release (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu). Wanted to set up another monitor with an usb vga adapter from j5create. Found this post http://how-to.cc/get-a-displaylink-v...h-ubuntu-12-04. Installed apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-displaylink -> got no green screen on reboot. Created X configuration file...nothing. Looked around some websites were telling me to install: sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg got:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
unity-control-center : Depends: libcheese-gtk23 (>= 3.4.0) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libcheese7 (>= 3.0.1) but it is not going to be installed
E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.

First time I am trying Unbuntu getting already a little frustrated

Topic - What Is Linux Kernel And How To Upgrade To Linux Stable Kernel 3.18.1

What Is Linux Kernel?

Those who don't know what is the Linux Kernel they should know it because Linux kernel is the essential part of any Linux operating system. It is responsible for resource allocation, low-level hardware interfaces, security, simple communications, basic file system management, and more. Written from scratch by Linus Torvalds (with help from various developers), Linux is a clone of the UNIX operating system. It is geared towards POSIX and Single UNIX Specification compliances.

Latest Stable Linux Kernel Version 3.18.1
It's been a quiet week, and the patch from rc7 is tiny, so 3.18 is out.
I'd love to say that we've figured out the problem that plagues 3.17 for a couple of people, but we haven't. At the same time, there's absolutely no point in having everybody else twiddling their thumbs when a couple of people are actively trying to bisect an older issue, so holding up the release just didn't make sense. Especially since
that would just have then held things up entirely over the holiday break.
So the merge window for 3.19 is open, and DaveJ will hopefully get his bisection done (or at least narrow things down sufficiently that we have that "Ahaa" moment) over the next week. But in solidarity with Dave (and to make my life easier too let's try to avoid introducing any _new_ nasty issues, ok?]

Sudo Is Can Not Find Program / Path Related Issues

I am toying around with a LFS system and I am suddenly having trouble with sudo not finding binaries in the standard superuser only binary dirs (/sbin /usr/sbin). I am using sudo version 1.8.10p3. The sudoers file parses correctly and I did not modify except to allow users in the wheel group to be able use sudo to call any command. So I imaging something is wrong with the $PATH variable but I am not sure on what it is.
