| realburb | hi it looks like the 195 nvidia driver causes sound problems on my 8200 igp, will the 260 driver help with this issue? | 04:00 |
|---|---|---|
| realburb | hi, audio doesnt work with either 195 or 260 on my 8200 based mainboard, what else can I try? | 11:08 |

| ayan | all: i'm having trouble with ubuntu 10.10, X, an NVIDIA 9500GT, and the nvidia driver (nvidia_drv.so). | 18:44 |
| ayan | http://pastebin.com/C3s2KnmY | 18:45 |
| ayan | ^- X.org log. | 18:45 |
| virtuald | ayan: it tells you to check the kernel log | 18:48 |
| virtuald | i.e. dmesg | 18:49 |
| ayan | virtuald, ya -- doesn't reveal anything. | 18:51 |
| ayan | atleast nothing obvious to me. | 18:51 |
| tjaalton | so you don't have the kernel module available | 18:52 |
| bjsnider | it doesn't sayt eh module doesn't exist, so it's there | 18:53 |
| tjaalton | bjsnider: are you sure it would mention that? grepping the strings from the module doesn't give any apparent matches for that situation | 18:57 |
| ayan | would lsmod show it? | 18:58 |
| tjaalton | if it got loaded | 18:58 |
| bjsnider | if he was trying to load a nonexistent module it would say "module doesn't exist" and then try to load something else, such as nouveau | 18:59 |
| bjsnider | ayan, what happens after the nvidia driver fails? does it continue to the desktop? | 18:59 |
| tjaalton | no, that would happen if the x driver wasn't there | 18:59 |
| ayan | bjsnider, no -- it does not continue to the desktop. | 19:00 |
| tjaalton | though the fallbacks don't work with nvidia/fglrx aiui | 19:00 |
| bjsnider | ayan, when did this start happening? | 19:00 |
| ayan | a bit before uds. | 19:01 |
| ayan | i didn't have time to look into it. | 19:01 |
| ayan | maybe a week before uds. | 19:02 |
| Sarvatt | ayan: something broken? got the machine up at plumbers? | 19:02 |
| bjsnider | get to a command prompt and type dkms status | 19:02 |
| ayan | Sarvatt: i will not be at plumbers. | 19:02 |
| ayan | Sarvatt: it is my desktop. | 19:03 |
| * bryceh waves | 19:27 | |
| Sarvatt | heyo bryceh! | 19:30 |
| Sarvatt | thanks for the assorted medicines, they were a big help :) | 19:30 |
| bryceh | Sarvatt, sure thing | 19:30 |
| bryceh | I'm just fairly stunned I didn't need them myself this trip | 19:31 |
| Sarvatt | especially when your roommate was sick from the start! | 19:31 |
| bryceh | and my wife leading up to it... | 19:31 |
| bryceh | how are you feeling now? getting recovered? | 19:33 |
| bryceh | Sarvatt, well either your germ sanitation work paid off, or you were just getting caught up on UDS germs ;-) | 19:34 |
| Sarvatt | just a nasty cough left, feel fine. I'm not regretting packing just for boston now with how cold it is up here :) the hotel is crap compared to orlando, funny because it costs about 3x more | 19:34 |
| bryceh | yeah that orlando hotel was swank... don't get your expectations set by that, most places we've gone have not been nearly that nice | 19:35 |

| knittl | why does jockey-text not display any drivers but jockey-gtk does? (although jockey-gtk fails to install it) | 22:06 |
| knittl | 2010-10-31 23:11:14,075 ERROR: XorgDriverHandler.enable(): package or module not installed, aborting | 22:12 |
| Sarvatt | knittl: did you install from the ati website at some point and not uninstall? | 22:27 |
| knittl | it's an nvidia-card, i don't think so | 22:27 |
| Sarvatt | knittl: no headers for your current kernel maybe? | 22:29 |
| bjsnider | knittl, is nvidia-common installed? | 22:29 |
| Sarvatt | ahh sorry, nevermind :) it should say somewhere else in that jockey log though, the aborting message happens so much | 22:29 |
| knittl | bjsnider: yes | 22:30 |
| knittl | Sarvatt: dunno. $ uname -a | 22:30 |
| knittl | Linux kbook 2.6.35-23-generic #36-Ubuntu SMP Tue Oct 26 17:03:18 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux | 22:30 |
| bjsnider | knittl, what nvidia chip? | 22:30 |
| knittl | $ lspci|grep nVidia | 22:31 |
| knittl | 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G86M [Quadro FX 360M] (rev a1) | 22:31 |
| bjsnider | what happens if you try installing nvidia-current? | 22:31 |
| knittl | that works | 22:31 |
| bjsnider | so it's only a jockey issue | 22:32 |
| knittl | seems so | 22:32 |
| bjsnider | what about nvidia-current-modaiases? | 22:33 |
| bjsnider | is it installed? | 22:33 |
| knittl | $ apt-cache policy nvidia-current-modaliases | 22:34 |
| knittl | nvidia-current-modaliases: Installed: 260.19.06-0ubuntu1 | 22:34 |
| bjsnider | unless the log is more specific about what is missing i don't see how it can be easily troubleshot | 22:36 |
| knittl | hm. it looks like the driver gets installed, but then it fails somehow and bails out | 22:37 |
| knittl | but i need to go to bed | 22:37 |
| bjsnider | that error message is slightly more helpful than a typical microsoft one, such as "error 09842098365", but unless it's identifying the specific missing package... | 22:37 |
