Bumblebee not working on LG P420 #576

Closed Pajn closed 13 years ago

Pajn commented 13 years ago

I have several problems with bumblebee. First intel GLX is not working: rasmus@rasmus-P420:~$ glxgears Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual

Second Nvidia is not working: rasmus@rasmus-P420:~$ sudo modprobe nvidia-current rasmus@rasmus-P420:~$ optirun glxgears

Stopping Bumblebee X server bumblebee [fail] Disabling nVidia card succeeded. rasmus@rasmus-P420:~$ optirun glxgears
Starting Bumblebee X server bumblebee Enabling nVidia card succeeded. FATAL: Error inserting nvidia_current (/lib/modules/2.6.38-11-generic/updates/dkms/nvidia-current.ko): No such device.

I don't know what additional info I should post, most things looks to be inclued in the bugreport tar.gz

OS: Ubuntu 11.04 64bit Laptop: LG P420

Two problems in one : first see the #493 issue, then go to the #552 one.

Pajn commented 13 years ago

The solutions in #493 are not working for me, I still get: rasmus@rasmus-P420:~$ glxgears Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual

And when I run startx: (EE) Failed to initialize GLX extension (Compatible NVIDIA X driver not found)

Could you give me the output of lspci -v | grep VGA ?

Pajn commented 13 years ago

rasmus@rasmus-P420:~$ lspci -v | grep VGA 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation Device 1050 (rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])

I get a similar problem -- I can't start nVidia/bumblebee. optirun glxgears attempts to disable the card and reports [fail] then on subsequent calls it just hangs or reports the message as above, i.e., cannot insert module. Very annoying as I had a working bumblebee for nearly a week and I broke it again.

I upgraded to 11.10 and the problems dissapeared. Now I only have one problem left: When I run optirun it looks (in the terminal) that it actually are running something (get some output, but not all? + it doesnt stp before I do ctrl+c) but it wont launch the program graphically (I never see the program itself).
