Getting to work X.org with NVIDIA drivers Ubuntu 8.10 on a Toshiba 2410 is not so easy and involves the xorg.conf tweaking. After some problematic crashes I finally found a configuration which works well with my pc.
The important part of the xorg.conf is the "Device" one:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Configured Video Device"
Driver "nvidia"
Busid "PCI:1:0:0"
Option "UseDisplayDevice" "DFP-0"
Option "AddARGBVisuals" "True"
Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True"
Option "RenderAccel" "0"
Option "NoLogo" "True"
Option "CustomEDID" "DFP-0:/etc/X11/edid.bin"
EndSection
This part requires the edid.bin which you can find in nvidia forums on the net and the UseDisplayDevice option which was the missing option that prevented the system to work. |
