![]() OK 14 did break it. But all is not lost as long as you have not removed 13.
On boot up in Grub select your 13 kernel. Once booted up into 13 from a terminal Code:
sudo apt-get --purge autoremove xserver-org-video-psb sudo apt-get clean Then you have a couple of options I will go over the easiest just because I think the Audience here maybe limited on *INUX Knowledge. I will post other ways later when I have time. Booted into the version 14 kernel from a terminal Code:
sudo apt-get install xserver-org-video-psb Now Im not guaranteeing this just because im writing this off memory. I dont think there was anythign else I did to get it to work with 14. However I do have a set of Proceedures im typing up tonight that will use some of the Newer driver that include 3d support. As mentioned earlier in this thread. However since 3d is so unstable Im including ways to fix the unstableness that seem to be working for me. Im in the process of installing Windows 7 on my Mini 10 Right now but as soon as its done and I have my dual boot set back up I will get on these proceedures. But the above should work for ya as long as you still have -13 installed and listed in your grub boot list. Also if there is any Linux folks out there.. Isnt there a way to just tell dkgp to reconfigure xserver-org-video-psb? I swore there was a command or ability to do that. If someone knows it post it. And someone give that a try rather than removing and reinstalling and all the reboots. I Think doing a re-configure on the current package would fix the -14 issues. Do You have GMA 500 Graphics?

But yea the freezes where so random that I got annoyed with it. But once I added below to my /etc/X11/xorg.conf Code:
Section "Monitor" Identifier "Configured Monitor" EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Default Screen" Monitor "Configured Monitor" Device "Configured Video Device" EndSection Section "Device" Identifier "Configured Video Device" Option "AccelMethod" "EXA" Option "DRI" "off" Option "MigrationHeuristic" "greedy" EndSection Section "ServerFlags" Option "DontZap" "False" EndSection Also those who are Curious I have the : Code:
Section "ServerFlags" Option "DontZap" "False" EndSection So As I go along I will keep adding more information here. And I hope Others do the same. I will also be posting most of this information on my website www.plasmaburn.net as I get time. Do You have GMA 500 Graphics?

![]() something just occured to me...are you using the netbook remix or the standard desktop i386 version?
I have heard that actually the i386 version is a bit better. That's what I'm running, and I've had no freezes EXCEPT when I was screwing around with XBMC and a couple video files I had ( I think it was an mkv with h264 and ac3 sound). It didn't like that combo. Also, the netbook remix special 'interface' for example is a heavy user of openGL (it's based on clutter, I think). |

![]() pretty much a wild guess here, but one thing I noticed is that the '3d bug' seemed to be more common if I was accessing my external USB harddrive.
One freeze happened when I was playing a movie off of the USB HD, one freeze when I was playing a movie via xbmc (but the movie was local) and one freeze when I was copying 100GB of movies from my USB drive to my internal drive. I think I've heard some other people talk about the random freezes having something to do with USB. I dunno, just a thought. |
