5 years ago Hello I know it’s been a while and no one has commented very sorry about that! I don’t know if you still need help but here is my suggestion: Since you said you can use an external display
The Intel graphics driver is part of the xserver-xorg-video-intel driver package, which is installed on all Ubuntu systems by default. And since it isn't a proprietary driver package, it doesn't show up in jockey (aka the Hardware Drivers application).
Just to ensure it didn't get removed by mistake (very slim possibility), just run this command:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates
Then:
sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel
If it’s already installed and working try to reinstall using the —reinstall función.
Install mesa-utils, that might work.
sudo apt-get install mesa-utils
I would also try that as it has worked in some cases.
Ubuntu no longer uses xorg.config file. You will have to create this file in the next step and enter in values.
Create file sudo -H gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and edit it
Section "Device" Identifier "Card0" Driver "intel" Option "AccelMethod" "sna" EndSection Save and close it. Restart your interface or just reboot you machine and go back to system settings - details - graphics and verify that your drivers are displayed.
I would also run this command: sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-lts-precise
As a last result I would try this: add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates add-apt-repository ppa:oibaf/graphics-drivers apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade sed -i -e 's/"quiet splash"/"quiet splash i915.i915_enable_rc6=0"/g' /etc/default/grub update-grub
Then
Ubuntu System Menu [Bottom Left Corner] > Preferences > Additional Drivers Choose > Using Processor Microcode from Intel CPUs from intel-microcode [Proprietary]
Depending on your hardware this could be different. Sorry for the long wait please reply with how it went.
Thanks!
Hi All,
I've recently come into possession of a Acer Chromebase 24 (harware codename "BUDDY"), and obviously don't have the enterprise licence to use it.
Have managed to install Gallium OS on the device - however, the on board display driver is not outputting anything. I've done as much research and testing as I can, but have come up empty on a possible solution.
What I've found so far:
Just wondering if anyone else has had success getting GalliumOS to work on this device?
Attached are the dmidecode & lshw outputs.
