Bear in mind that the latest also includes some real cutting edge stuff, the xswat ppa is hosting latest nvidia drivers for Lucid as well but no other radical stuff so for most, that makes a sensible choice there.

Well, this is just development and everyone within this forum should be aware of this.....

Bleeding edge and breakage...:lolflag:

True that.....that caveat remains with any dev branch. :)

#5

I'm using it & "currently" it's all working very well---the nvidia drivers are very nice & I note that my system is (or "seems") faster/smoother, but that may be very subjective......

#6

I tried it out and I was having higher than normal cpu usage so I reverted back

#7

So, does this effect only Nvidia?

I have Intel graphics on one machine and VIA on the other.

Edit: totally off-topic, but did you a get a PM from me today about this:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/576724

If so, sorry if I seemed "short tempered" about the PM's but when you're immersed in trying to help someone with boot or upgrade issues it's very distracting to have PM notifications pop up frequently.

That and I'm a grouchy old man.

#8

I tried out the xorg edgers stuff on an install way back in 10.04 testing. Worked pretty well. Made it possible to run compiz (which I absolutely detest) and GS. Then the generic caught up as far as that stuff being able to run.

I know that it also was dumping intel stuff on here too.

I would give it a whack. They are ahead of the curve on this stuff.

#9

I was just about to try it out when I read:

fglrx will not work at all, do not use this PPA if you need it.so probably just as well I didn't update!

(I'm seriously wondering whether getting an ATi-based laptop was a good idea... even things like mipmap-based blur in compiz don't work)

#10

My card works better on the open driver, you might want to try it. You can always switch back.

Well, I am using the Lucid branch and I cannot see any trouble with that.

Xorg-edgers is also an "official" Ubuntu ppa so they are probably aware of this.

#14

For some reason, they are pushing my framerate on glxgears from 3000 per 5s to 300 per 5s on Intel GM965.

While I agree, I've gotta say where's the fun in that?:-)

I really saw no advantage in the edgers repos. for my machine. So I did the ppa-purge thing (I love that tool!).

What about ATI drivers ?

Im getting a ATI HD 5770 for my B-day in 10 days

#17

I used it last round for a while and it made it so my poorly supported card would actually run compiz (I really hate the sucker but it did work) and GS. The regular open driver caught up and I dropped the edgers stuff.

If you want the best drivers for ATI I would really recommend giving it a try.

195.36.24 are the default drivers from the repository, why use a ppa.

#28

btw, ppa:sarvatt/xorg-testing has the xserver 1.9 candidates.

:confused: I can find his inactive ppa för xorg-testing but no ppa with 1.9 candidates.:confused:

Nevertheless a 1.9 version will probably break ABI version for the nVidia driver...maybe this works ?

I tried xserver 1.8 in xorg-edgers, but emacs doesnot like it. Emacs window doesn't repaint correctly, so that characters are overlapped.

Anyone has the same problem?

It is far from inactive.

Ok.... but it breaks ABI for the nVidia driver, not sure if "Option "IgnoreABI" "True"" fixes this...:confused:

To test or not. ?...:)

Ignore ABI usually fixes the issues.

Are you using the new 256 driver?

Yep.....

The 1.9 ppa is nevertheless terrible broken for my nVidia card :twisted:

a ppa-purge from recovery saved the situation, all ttys broken in normal mode....

Up and running again on xorg-edgers

#41

Were you running xorg-testing and xorg-edgers at the same time. Choose one or the other.

If so, there will be ABI conflicts. Sometimes the cross-PPA ABIs will match or you will get lucky and be able to boot to X, but don't expect to be able to.

don't won't means you want. So you want to purge everything. But you do not want to update the kernel. And you do not know how they got updated.

Okey. If you pin with Synaptic then an apt-get update or using the update-manager will update the kernel. Sort of a bug. If you also use the check all in Synaptic it will also update. Therefore the only way to ensure that you do not update the kernel is to not update the kernel.

#47

My kernel looks now in synaptic like this...

linux-generic 2.6.32.22.23 linux-headers 2.6.32-22 linux-headers-2-6-32-22-generic linux-headers-2-6-34-4 linux-headers-2.6.34-4-generic linux-headers-generic 2.6.32.22.23

Yes i know how update system in synaptic and update-manager but it don´t change anything. Those 2.6.32 packages don´t updated. This is now Linux Mint 9. I dont have any kernel problems in Maverick

I can't think of any reason Mint would handle kernel meta-packages any differently than Debian and Ubuntu.

The meta-packages are only there to make sure you are updated to whatever happens to be the default version of the kernel at any given time.

The use of the meta-package mainly factors in in 3 ways.

1. If you are starting with a minimal install and adding what you want to it, the meta-package gives you a version of the kernel you know the developers are putting more of their time and effort into to smooth out issues, make sure modules work, modules are backported, etc... because it's the version they expect most people to be running.

2. It makes sure you get updated to the newer kernel when doing a distribution upgrade.

3. If you follow the development cycle, makes sure you are up to date with the default kernel during the development cycle since you should never be provided a kernel with an ABI change as an update to your existing kernel.

There is a possible 4th thing where there could be an update to the default kernel in a release version of the distribution that could require an abi change, but then there is extra work required to get the update out there and the user would take care of any modules they compiled and installed, so I expect they try to avoid that as much as possible.

If the kernel meta-packages won't update, then it's because there is a dependency issue, usually some package that has not made it into the archive yet.

But in your case I'm assuming.....

You are not being shown that there is an update. That Mint 9 was released with the 2.6.32 version of kernel as the default. Through normal update channels, and I wouldn't expect it from unofficial sources providing updated kernels either, there will never be a meta-package that points to something other than a 2.6.32 kernel for Mint 9 because that is what selected as the default for the release.

Sound about right?

Later, Seeker

After messing with this issue for a while yesterday, I finally decided to do a fresh Lucid install, so I will not be able to report back on the X version I'd been using.

Of all things, my display problems seem to have been largely alleviated by the fresh installation.

Edit: I take it back. Things are no better. Already two X crashes today, with a lot of '[TTM] AGP Bind memory failed' in /var/log/syslog.

New nVidia RC driver, ver 256.35 available from Xorg-edgers

I'm in---I finally had to delete my xorg.conf with this update.....looks like between the driver & new xorg my SLI setup works "out of the box". Feels VERY strange to be running without a xorg.conf that I've tweaked.......I've been making conf files for over 10 years now & don't think I'll "really" miss it...

If all you want is the latest nvidia, the x-swat ppa has far less radical stuff and always updates to latest nvida beta in day of release.

Using Xorg-edgers ppa to keep nVidia current...

Just updated to kernel 2.6.35-rc4 via the deb process

Is there a way to force via update/upgrade to rehash the xorg process so that it will apply to the new kernel?

What I usually do is use ppa-purge to remove xorg-edgers ppa and then re enable it thus reinstalling it... This is obviously cumbersome and counter productive..

Thanks

DKMS takes care of that and automagic installs the driver for the kernel.

If something fails, just run in Low-graphics mode and reinstall the nvidia driver.

sudo apt-get install --reinstall nvidia-current

Running with 2.6.35-RC4 without any issues.

Thanks Plun

On this upgrade to rc4, DKMS did what it should have.

On the last 2 daily 999 kernels I tested, it did not work.

I appreciate the feedback and help! :popcorn:

I'm running with 2.6.35-999 (05-Jul-2010).

I don't have any packages held back at the moment, but Nvidia is now broken for me. I've tried with and without an xorg.conf. I can't even boot into low graphics mode properly unless I temporarily "hide" xorg.conf.

When I updated to today's build of 2.6.35-999 I reinstalled nvidia-current (256.35) as usual to no avail.

The nvidia module libglx.so seems to load ok, but Xorg.0.log shows a stack trace/segmentation fault:

If you're using maverick with edgers, you should be doing a dist-upgrade. This way you won't have packages held back. Usually this just means it wants to install extra packages. As always be sure what you are doing when you update but as long as it isn't removing anything (or anything vital) just go for it. :p

#73

Next things I tried were:

  • Adding Option "IgnoreABI" "True" to xorg.conf
  • Booting previous kernel
  • Installing 2.6.35-rc4
  • Purging the edgers ppa
  • nvidia worked again
  • Re-enabled edgers via /etc/apt/sources.list
  • Rebooted to recovery mode
  • sudo aptitude update
  • sudo aptitude full-upgrade
  • 109 packages upgraded again I think it was
  • Reboot

nvidia still fscked :confused:

#74

dont know if your all aware of this, but......im using xorg-edgers on my hp2510p and just got nvidia-common, nvidia-current and nvidia-settings installed via update-manager..... Note this laptop hasnt got anything nvidia hardware installed. why does update-manager install nvidia on a intel chipset based laptop????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Note. Im using Lucid x86_64 with default lucid kernel, has this got anything to do with the kernel?? or is it the update-manager? oor is it your ppa doing something wrong?????

#75

All the drivers are installed by default so that the OS will work on any hardware.

The edgers ppa, if you read the page that comes up first, tells you that you should not just use the one for your box as they are packaged as a unit and may not work if you split them up.

When not using that ppa I remove the other drivers so that they do not need to be upgraded. With the ppa I just leave it alone.

#76

There are no benefits on this fourm to spamming punctuation for no good reason. I felt it was worth mentioning that this kind of thing is generally frowned upon. :p

#77

You can uninstall the other drivers by removing xserver-xorg-video-all and all the other packages for cards you don't have.

The edgers ppa, if you read the page that comes up first, tells you that you should not just use the one for your box as they are packaged as a unit and may not work if you split them up.

The warning is referring to mixing different X components from other PPA or standard Ubuntu repos. It is safe to remove xserver-xorg-video-all metapackage and xserver-xorg-video packages for hardware you don't have. In fact, I would recommend people do that to save disk space and update install time. Also, bugs from some package can still screw up your system even if you don't have that video card (One time, I was hit by a bug in nvidia-common that caused errors in package management).

They are installed and kept in the repos in case you switch card and need an nvidia driver, they are not activated in any way.

#79

I am using a radeon card and with the nvidia packages that got installed my drivers got messed up. It was trying to use the nvidia drivers over the radeon ones.

you wanna bet??? i have not installed thes drivers my self, they came via update-manager, so its very clear that theres is something wrong here...

and still i dont have any kind of nvidia hardware installed on this laptop.

The various drivers that are installed, are dependencies of the ubuntu-desktop meta package, they get installed by default on a desktop installation.

#83

yes but not nvidia-current, nvidia-common and nvidia-settings, these drivers is being installed by the user, i really wonder if its legal to put the proprietary nvidia-current driver in automatic installation, and i wonder why its being installed on a non-nvidia system, there is no nvidia-hardware what so ever on the system.

I could understand if it were the opensourced nouveau driver that was being installed pr default. but not the nvidia-current....

Let's play nice here boys. It is, after all, a testing OS. A little humor is required when even thinking about it or you are going to go nuts.

Well, nuttier than you are now. Can't be all that stable or you wouldn't be into running these development OS'.

We are all a little crazy so we need to get along with each other. No one else wants to have much to do with us.

Slight improvement after yesterday's updates - although nvidia is still broken, at least I now get a usable desktop when I'm dropped into "low graphics mode".

Didn't get round to checking the logs last night to see if the error messages were any different. Will see what tonight brings when I get back...

Noticed that the ppa was broken last night and todays upgrade went well.

But... the nvidia driver is broken for me both nvidia-current and manually install the version directly from nvidia. (low-graphics mode OK)

Ok, I got the ppa-purge file. When I run it it comes up with Could not find package list for PPA: xorg-edgers?

Before anyone asks yes I do have it installed & the package list is in the source list

Cary

Ok found the problem, I had commented out the xorg-edgers line in the source list. After uncommenting & doing a apt-get update it had cached the ppa in memory (I got this from RTFM or in this case the ppa-purge script) & now it is purging away :-)

It seems that ia32-libs that came today from XorgEdgers broke my Flash (10.1 installed through nspluginwrapper) (reinstall did not help). I went back to 64-bit plugin (copied libflashplayer.so in ~/.mozilla/plugins)... Of course, purged all 32-bit stuff, again... Anyone else having this "problem"...?

Yes, my flash broke, thereafter reinstall, didn't help here too.

So I had to ppa-purge this time round.

Furthermore... on a side note. 2.6.35 RC4 kernel created an error in DKMS doesn't build. :mad:

Up and running Xorg 1.9 with nVidias newest driver, ver 256.44

Info (nothing about Xorg 1.9) http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=2295223

The PPA is also upgraded to this driver.

I didn't manage to start so I also installed the driver downloaded from nVidia.

After checking xorg-logs I noticed the -ignoreABI warning so I added it to xorg.conf

Section "ServerFlags"
Option "ignoreABI" "True"
EndSection

And it works......:D

#96

Sounds like FUN!!!!! I'm heading into town for a couple of hours---will play with it when I get back.....

Yup... it is for a "nerd"....:D

The PPA-driver probably works directly with -ignoreABI added, I didn't check that. (This also probably breaks all warranties, so be careful)

No CPU problems and I am going to check performance with Unigine Heaven.

Thermal level and Powermizer also seems to be fine. Laptop, GeForce GT 330M GPU

Well, there's always ppa-purge, so there's no excuse not to try it! :D

More findings....

  • Running kernel 2.6.35-13, suspend OK
  • TTY is broken.....
  • Unigine Heaven, 3D Benchmark OK, The GPU temp went up rather high, 73 degrees Celsius, a little better score for my hardware setup.

so probably just as well I didn't update!

(I'm seriously wondering whether getting an ATi-based laptop was a good idea... even things like mipmap-based blur in compiz don't work)

Just download the 10.7 catalyst driver directly then, it installs on any xserver version .Not sure if xserver 1.9 has major changes that prevent installation.So be careful .

But the new X hasnt come in yet .

That's the good news - I've stuck with Xorg-edgers the whole time waiting (im)patiently for a new nvidia driver.

The bad news for me is that the GUI is more sluggish than it was when nvidia was still broken - e.g. noticeable delay when minimizing/maximising windows.

I do have gnome-shell installed, but don't run it very often. I usually stick with compiz out of inertia :)

Obviously I had to wait for the new nvidia driver, but now that I have compiz back again it doesn't seem to load properly with the desktop. Reloading it (with compiz fusion icon) seems to do the trick though.

246.44 works just fine with my laptop but I must use the driver downloaded from nVidia. I cannot figure out whats wrong with the driver from ppa.

Compiz broke several times yesterday, the package compiz-fusion-plugins-extra is still broken, I also disabled animations, after this breakage I just enabled desktop effects again.

Strange that on both my MM and LL setups none of this happened to me.

I have no problem with this running a Geforce GT 330M

One thing I noticed is that xorg-edgers is often updated with Mesa packages and the nvidia driver must then be reinstalled.

The problem was wallpaper plugin. It doesn't work in 0.8.6 and 0.9 compiz versions. I'll stay on compiz 0.9, because I can use expo with screen edge activation. In Mavericks ccsm I can't set it, just get a bug report. :)

Could you report that to Launchpad as well. See Robert Hooker's text:

[I]nvidia-graphics-drivers (256.53-0ubuntu1) maverick; urgency=low [ Alberto Milone ] * New upstream release: - Fixed a bug that prevented XvMC from initializing in most cases. - Added support for xorg-server video driver ABI version 8, which will be included in the xorg-server-1.9 series of releases (LP: #616023). - Fixed a bug that caused extremely slow rendering of OpenGL applications on X screens other than screen 0 when using a compositing manager. - Fixed a regression introduced after 256.35 that caused stability problems on GPUs such as GeForce GT 240. - Fixed a slow kernel virtual address space leak observed when starting and stopping OpenGL, CUDA, or VDPAU applications. - Fixed a bug that left the system susceptible to hangs when running two or more VDPAU applications simultaneously.

I’m on i386. Where did you get those from and do you have references as to what the bug is?

#125

Why would anyone want to install anything from an untrusted source like Rapidshare, if the package is legitimate, it should be in a repository or ppa.

#126

It is from xorg-edgers PPA. But that version is not there anymore. Xorg-edgers package maintainer give me the link to all pixman packages. http://ppa.launchpad.net/xorg-edgers/ppa/ubuntu/pool/main/p/pixman/

But the packages that are not broken (the ones that I uploaded to rapidshare, and posted the link here), are not in PPA anymore.

P.S. I'm sorry that I uploaded packages to rapidshare, but I don't have my own PPA or repository.

#127

If you have a launchpad account, and have signed the Ubuntu Code of Conduct. you can create your own ppa.

#128

Rapidshare gives payouts for X number of downloads do they not? :-\"

#129

Who checks the files on any download service to see if there isn't anything malicious included with the file.

We had an incident about a year ago where a member downloaded a .deb from gnome-look.org that had a malicious script built into it. Fortunately the member noticed something that wasn't quite right with it and asked for advice before installing it.

That is why we recommend you only install packages from trusted sources, like the repositories and ppa's
