Ultimate Edition Forum

Hi again ..my friends ...
pch.shot !! ....i have tried your way once more time..and it didn`t work..and when i install the driver trough "hardware drivers" normally i think the driver works but it says "fatal error no screen found"..so how should i fill in the right parameters into xorg.config file for the screen...sorry but im clueless there ..it is to much to ask if u can post yours if u have an nvidia driver in your system..so i can see how it looks like..and what i have been missing to ad in the config file to get it to work ...and thank´s allot so far for your help .

And saddle tramp..thank`s for your tip ...i was going though your way and tip...but i could`nt "mark" and remove the drivers in synaptic..i don`t know why but i cant remove them..so i can restart with the vesa driver iether...so im really clueless here ..i don`t know what i should do to get grafics and compiz to work with a deasent driver fore my computer ...im starting to loose my faith in this..so do u have some last tip in this issue..it`s welcome.

Thank`s allot both of u...Steffis

And guys...when i install a incorrect driver or someting else is wrong..like my case...i came to a blue sign that says that the xorg.conf file is wrong..and xserver cant work and i cant log in by "startx"..how do i came back to the desktop there and maybe modify the xorg.config file...i can log in by my name and passw..but whats bring me back to the desktop .

And guys !!!...i have done another clean install now of EU2.1 ...and only installed the updates..i don`t dare install the driver again ..becouse i know i will be f***d up ...so im waiting for some of your tip..if u have some more ...but i should give u a list what i have in my computer that i want to run EU 2.1 on...

I'm running an sli setup on my Windows box right now. If I get some time later this evening I can use the live Ultimate disc and set it up and post my xorg.conf. It sounds like the problem is your monitor not the driver or card. Did you try hooking it up to your television yet? You can try commenting out lines one at a time and see what happens(put one of these # in front of the line). Start with the composite lines. Is your card agp or pcie?

Hiii...pch.shot
My card is pcie...the conf file i posted fore u was something that i found on the net "i know that was a agp card" ..but the thing was the strings and config about the samsung 226bw in that config file...the configuration on colur,resolution,depht..is the same i hope even that is on a agp card configuration .
I know..i also think is the screen that couse the probs...i should hook up my computer to my television today and install the driver and se what happens "s-video to scart"...but if !!!...it don`t brings me back to the desktop after i have install it...how in h*ll do i come back to the desktop to try to config the file when "startx" doesn`t work ....becouse i don`t want to clean the drive once more time kind`a tired of it.

When you get to the boot prompt hit Esc and add VGA=791 to the end of the kernel line. Reboot. This will load the Vesa driver with a screen resolution of 1024x768 and you can go in and install the nvidia driver.
p.s. Don't post stuff that is not about your computer, it just confuses the issue. An agp card and a pcie card are totally different.
