| hm | hello everyone | 11:06 |
| hm | I have a question | 11:07 |
| hm | please | 11:07 |
| hm | someone can help me please please | 11:08 |
| hm | I m running on this laptop the kernel 2.6.35, and everything work great, including 3D aceleration and efects, but when I select from the GRUB the new 2.6.38 just the screen is turning BLACK and the OS start with black screen | 11:10 |
| hm | my videocard is the Intel mobile 4 series (915) family | 11:10 |
| soreau | Does it work if you boot with nomodeset? | 11:12 |
| hm | Hi soreau | 11:12 |
| hm | how can do it ? | 11:12 |
| soreau | hi | 11:12 |
| soreau | /msg ubottu nomodeset | 11:13 |
| soreau | if you are in a channel ubottu is.. | 11:13 |
| hm | wait wait....hehe now I m confusing,... | 11:13 |
| hm | should I type it from my console terminal ? isnt ? | 11:14 |
| soreau | hm: You might also try asking in #intel-gfx | 11:14 |
| soreau | nomodeset is a kernel parameter. /msg blah blah is something you type here on IRC | 11:14 |
| hm | hmmm... I will try it | 11:14 |
| shadeslayer | i was getting this last night : http://paste.kde.org/126601/ | 11:14 |
| soreau | <ubottu> A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 11:14 |
| shadeslayer | i was trying to boot kubuntu under EFI mode, with nomodeset and blacklisted the fglrx/radeon driver ( Macbook Pro 8,2 ) | 11:15 |
| shadeslayer | any ideas how to fix? ( I think i need to recompile my kernel with the dual channel lvds patch ) | 11:16 |
| soreau | shadeslayer: blacklisting fglrx is not enough | 11:17 |
| shadeslayer | soreau: ok, what else? | 11:17 |
| soreau | you need to uninstall it completely for radeon to work | 11:17 |
| shadeslayer | no no, i don't want to power on discrete graphics :) | 11:17 |
| soreau | alternatively, you can disable the intel chip if its an option in your bios | 11:17 |
| shadeslayer | soreau: don't have a BIOS :P | 11:17 |
| shadeslayer | Macbook's have EFI | 11:18 |
| soreau | Oh mac | 11:18 |
| shadeslayer | yep | 11:18 |
| soreau | good luck with that then | 11:18 |
| shadeslayer | heh :P | 11:18 |
| shadeslayer | well, i've figured everything out, i get it to boot and everything, can't bring up X tho | 11:18 |
| hm | I m reading that article that u posted soreau | 11:21 |
| soreau | Good, because that is what its there for :P | 11:22 |
| hm | and asking the same thing one the intel-gfx channel too | 11:25 |
| hm | Soreau , are u still there ? | 11:43 |
| soreau | nope | 11:43 |
| hm | well, I just started on the OS using the nomode set from the grub | 11:43 |
| hm | with the 3.0 kernel now | 11:43 |
| hm | and it started with graphics | 11:44 |
| hm | but | 11:44 |
| hm | no acceleration | 11:44 |
| hm | no compiz | 11:44 |
| hm | no 3D | 11:44 |
| hm | hello ? | 11:49 |
| hm | what I should do now ? | 11:53 |
| soreau | hm: You likely wont get 3D without kms | 11:56 |
| soreau | but you can tell them what you've found in #intel-gfx | 11:56 |
| soreau | show them the output of lspci|grep VGA | 11:57 |
| soreau | give them dmesg from the failed session | 11:57 |
| hm | yeah I got it | 11:57 |
| soreau | and X log if you can get it | 11:57 |
| hm | sadly...no one is answering on there | 12:01 |
| soreau | sadly, you havent asked anything yet.. | 12:02 |
| soreau | Are you sure your messages are reaching the channel? (is your nick registered?) | 12:02 |
| soreau | because I can tell you the answer to the first question is no | 12:03 |
| hm | if u can read me on here...well I suppose it work on there too | 12:03 |
| soreau | Thats not always how it works. Some channels require your nick to be registered to speak | 12:04 |
| soreau | due to spam and other reasons | 12:04 |
| hm | aahhh ...ok | 12:04 |
| hm | should I ask to the operator above on that issue ? | 12:04 |
| soreau | operator above? | 12:05 |
| soreau | you dont have to say a prayer.. just use a registered nick :P | 12:06 |

| hm | well assuming all these last issues with this OS, I ve to be very religious to make to work that :-) | 12:07 |
| soreau | Man, why is ubottu not in this channel | 12:07 |
| soreau | hm: heh, maybe it will help after all ;) | 12:08 |
| hm | hehe | 12:08 |
