Bumblebee Resolution Problem

Hello, I'm trying to get bumblebee to work running Ubuntu 15.04.
I've followed this guide to get to the point I am now, but I'm getting an error that I couldn't even google the way out of it.

This is what I get from demencia@demencia-laptop:~$ primusrun glxinfo | grep OpenGL


primus: fatal: Bumblebee daemon reported: error: [XORG] (EE) Failed to load module "mouse" (module does not exist, 0)

But I was told that that error is not really important that I should have a look at my /var/log/Xorg.8.log, where I found my dead end.

Here's my /var/log/Xorg.8.log
file.

Any ideas?

Hello there! I'm completely new to linux; I've used ubuntu and other distributions but just at user level.
The problem is, I've got a Sony laptop with the inside H2O (3.9) BIOS, don't have the complete specs right now, but i can check them when i'm back at home. It has a NVIDIA 640M LE, 8gb ram, an Intel Core I7 processor, and a 750gb HD.
The screen, although working well enough, is broken, some plastic parts are broken also and it's not in good condition overall. It worked well in every aspect aside from those.
As i have a desktop, computer to work already, I don't need the laptop for working anymore, so I thought it could be a good idea to use it as an entertainment center in the living room, you know, for watching movies, playing some old-school games in local coop with and without emulators and so on.

I thought the still in beta SteamOS (Think it's a Debian-based distro) could be a nice option, so I've installed it. The installation process ran without issues till the first reboot; after that i only get "operating system not found" error and nothing else.
I unplugged the HD and made a complete installation from scrap with every reboot needed in my desktop computer and everything worked out fine: installing games, browsing the web, playing music, etc.
But, after plugging again the HD with the OS installed in the laptop I still get the same error; operating system not found.

Any ideas of how to solve it? Thank you in advance, and sorry about my english

Hello, y'all with vast Linux knowledge, I've built my own gaming desktop, here are the specs:
1-MOBO Asus M5A78L-M LX Plus
2-AMD Radeon Graphics R9 270, 2GB DDR5 Memory
3-2 Hyper X Memory Cards totalling 16 Gb of RAM

Have installed and runninbg Zorin 9.0 Ultimate (Ubuntu 14.4) - MY PROBLEM, I am unable to downlolad any games especially "Minecraft", "League of Legends" and a host of other games on "Steam". I have Wine Geko (32 bit) 2.1 version installed and have Winetricks as well, when I open it I can install a host of games, however, nothing is installed. This is the last straw for me, I have no clue what to do do being a Newbie and unfortunately the folks at "Zoringroup/helpdesk" have been absolutely useless as well. Thanks.

Hi Everyone,

We are using Dell Power Edge R510 server as a central storage in Linux network. I have configured RAID6 on 10 near-line SAS hard disks. Using NFS i have exported one directory and mounted it on other machines.

Recently we are facing one problem, when anyone read/write big file (2-3GB)from NFS drive,others feel very slow access to that drive. Sometime we can't open simple text file till complete read/write process.

I have remounted NFS drive but still problem as it is.

Can anyone help me to solve this problem.

Hi this is my first post. I'm a Linux user but far from an expert. I'm building a CNC machine and it will be powered by linuxcnc, I may try to compile it for my more modern hardware.

My question is because I have some old cases with touch screen monitors that were likely from some sort of kiosk. The built in monitors have odd Samsung lcd panels with a native resolution of 1024x768 but they are wide screen. They look like 16:9 but could be 16x10. Certainly not 4:3. Thus the pixels are rectangular. The monitors accept higher resolutions so I can output in a wide screen aspect ratio however the image is not sharp because of the down conversion and maybe to some extent the resolutions might be high for the VGA connection.

I'd like the picture to not be squished but with the quality I see when I use the native resolution. So I need to send the monitor an image that's been stretched a little so the monitor can squish it back to the right proportions. I will be using an amd a6 apu fm2 socket since the motherboards for these still often have a parallel header making a mesa FPGA card unnecessary for driving the gecko stepper drivers for this build keeping the costs at a minimum and the setup simple. Do the ati drivers allow scaling independent of output resolution? Is there some way to configure xorg.conf to do this?

hello, i have installed ubuntu one hour ago and i cant change my screen resolution. In displey options i have only two basic options: 1024x768 and 800x600. My monitor is has a resolution of a 1920x1080 and on windows it works fine. I havent checked third-party softwares when i was installing ubuntu and i think that i past by graphic driver(on windows i had ati control center). If anyone can help im using Gigabyte radeon r7 260x oc 1gb ddr5. I would realy love to change my screen resolution and play games.

Hello everyone im new here and it is my first post, im using slackware 14.1 x64 on an alienware m11xR2 and im havin trouble with Nvidia drivers.

I tried binary and package installations with bumblebee.

Nothing works, GLX doesn't work and after making "nvidia-xconfig" X doesn't start.

I remove the xorg.conf and then X starts but without nvidia and GLX.

Can someone help me ?

Oh, and im french so sorry for my bad english.

I have Windows 8.1 Update as my HOST operating system.
I have installed vmware workstation and installed on it the latest
version of CentOS (7.0) as Guest OS.

I have 8 GIG of RAM and have allocated to VmWare around 5GIG~.
HDD size is 30 GIG.
I also have de-fragmented the HDD.

From the beginning of the installation of the CentOS it was SLOW. It is NOT a sudden change or decline in performance.

Formerly, I had installd CentOS 6.4 which worked OK and had not speed problem while I just had allocated 1 GIG of RAM. Where do you think lies the problem?

Hello all, before I get started I just want to make it clear that I have done hours of research on the question I'm about to ask, so... lol

Anyway, I am completely-totaly new to linux, of all forms, have been a Windows XP Pro guy for years now, and it's what I know inside and out.

Well that's beat, even though I still am using it, and I can't afford a new pc or a new windows cd. I'm broke for now. Besides all that, I like linux so far from what I ahve been woking with. (xubuntu)

[QUESTIONS]:

I bought a notebook from a very desperate crackhead for $20:

Compaq Presario x1000
(not much ram, i think only 256 or 512)
-It's slow as #$@%, but I managed to install Xubuntu on it, and it still sucks. Very. Very slow. I cant watch any videos on it or really do anything other than just look up websites, and that sucks too.

Sorry, nevermind that above, I am just stating that so you see what my first Linux introduction has been. This is what I have got used to so far, and I seem to like it.

I am not at all concerned with this notebook at this point. However, what I am concerned with, and this is my main question:

I have a Desktop:

P4 2.6 GHz /1.5 GB Ram
- I have XP Pro SP3 installed on the 1st partition and I installed Ubuntu v14.xxx (very latest version) on the 2nd partition.

It's extremely slow, but XP runs just fine. I chose the first option upon install where it does the auto-setup running alongside XP.

So far I do not really like it. I have no start menu like I had on the notebook in the upper left hand corner, and I kind of like that.

Well through messing around I'm guessing that is something called: xfce ? Not sure.

Anyway, sorry for rambling about, but here is my MAIN QUESTION:

What Distro of Linux should I install on this PC where it will run nice and fast/smooth?

~thankyou.

Hi guys/gals.

I installed Debian Jessie with LXDE as my default desktop environment, no problems, except I can't play most games. So installed the Meta Package of the Gnome Desktop environment. Everything appeared to be ok, but when I went to reboot, all I get is a black screen.

I went to the Grub and typed in "nomodeset" to get me back to a desktop.
I uninstalled Gnome (not full removal), but still have the same problem.
When I restarted in safety mode, Gnome was still a desktop option that I could load, which I did. I'm confused. Do I need to do a complete removal?

I tried installing the nvidia graphic card driver as per the Debian manual, and that left me with only a root terminal and no GUI.

I've got about 2Gigs of ram and a 2.4 GHz Pentium 3 processor with an ASUS motherboard. (yes, it's a 12 year old computer, but not used for the past few years)

Any help would be great.

Thanks in advance,

Joe
