but after the new splash screen in silent mode the screen on my notebook kept black. this event also happens with actual kubuntu releases and other distros. i have (what a coincidence) a mobility x700.
The page befor I postet, that I have this problem with x700 mobile, too.
It happens because in live mode there is no
Código:
Option "MonitorLayout" "LVDS, AUTO"
line in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf.
This is needed for xmodul-ati to know which device is the laptop display.
When you connect an external monitor, you'll see, that you have a picture.
I think this is not a bug. |

I am having trouble with RC3 livecd and loading nvidia driver for my nvidia 7600gt card. I use the control panel->Kanotix->Display in administrator mode to load and install the nvidia driver which it does after quitting Xserver then restarting Xserver. The problem is after it loads the nvidia driver and goes back to Xserver, it opens the login window on top of the desktop. You can't close the login window, or login again without going into a loop. You also lose keyboard input! (this has been a problem with RC1, RC2, and RC3). (it loads the VESA driver by default on first booting).

moustache,
did you issue the 'fix-unionfs' command before to enable the live session to be writable?
otherwise no go.

Kanotix loads the vesa driver, because the 7600GT is not listet in pci-id and so the system doesn't know that it's a nvidia gfx card.
The paket "discover1-data" from sid is a bit old.
Código:
apt-cache policy discover1-data
discover1-data:
Installiert:1.2006.01.14

Devil,
I issued the command "sudo fix-unionfs" and it actived the unionfs then I tried again to install the nvidia drivers with the RC3 livecd, as indicated above, with exactly the same results (actually the previous times I tried this, the unionfs was automatically activated before downloading an installing the nvidia driver). The login screen still came up as a window and I lost keyboard input on the desktop. Has anyone else gotten the nvidia drivers to load with the livecd?

i guess it is more a mistake than a bug. all the latest live cds were running perfectly, even the easter-preview rc4 has not a black screen withoud editing the specified xorg.conf. so it is maybe possible to add it.. |

apparently 2006-1RC3 dooes not recognize the VIA CLE266 video chipset. iow the via kernel module (modprobe via manually) doesn't load and consequently the DRM module which leaves the vesa driver for X.
lspci output follows
00:00.0 0600: 1106:3123
Subsystem: 1106:aa01
Flags: bus master, 66MHz, medium devsel, latency 8
Memory at d0000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=128M]
Capabilities: [a0] AGP version 2.0
Capabilities: [c0] Power Management version 2
screws up DRI and mpeg deciding under X too |

Regarding this previous post:
gs escribió:
Problem booting RC3 from hd-install on usb-harddisk: There was no problem installing Kanotix-2006-01-RC3 on my usb-harddisk, but inspite doing the procedure decribed in the FAQ which modified mkinitrd etc. RC3 does not boot from the usb-disk: "kernel panic - not syncing: VFS unable to mount root fs on unknown block (0,0)"
Including KanoEaster I was always able to boot Kanotix from usb-disks - is this a bug in RC3 or a feature?
Poormans-install on sda using cheatcodes "tohd=/dev/sda5 bootusb2" does work, however.
I wrestled with the same thing using RC4 this past weekend. I followed the suggestions in the FAQ and ended up in the same place. After poking around for way too long, I modified mkinitrd.conf to change
ROOT=prompt
to
ROOT=''
This seems to have been the trick. I no longer get error messages about missing modules "sg" and "sd_mod" during mkinitrd and no more kernel panics, either. |
