Integrated graphics card still a problem? #133

Closed sonyadave closed 2 years ago

Hello,

Is an integrated graphics card still essential? For standard installation? I don't know if we have one without integrated graphics card. we can certainly get it. This is my output of lspci:

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) DeviceName: Onboard IGD Subsystem: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 35 Memory at fe000000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4M] Memory at c0000000 (64-bit, prefetchable) [size=256M] I/O ports at f000 [size=64] [virtual] Expansion ROM at 000c0000 [disabled] [size=128K] Capabilities: Kernel driver in use: i915 Kernel modules: i915

this is the whole story. I tried installing the custom RTXI. I had numerous problems, including the mentioned (on other recent threads) "loading intitial ramdisk" freeze.

I gave up and went for standard install. I installed and ran benchmark. My benchmark times were good. at the end of benchmark report it said: RTS| 0.929| 1.586| 8.680| 0| 0| 00:10:00/00:10:00 pcilib: sysfs_read_vpd: read failed: Input/output error pcilib: sysfs_read_vpd: read failed: Input/output error

when I type rtxi (presumambly how one runs it) i get:

0"000.000| BUG in low_init(): [main] binding failed: Operation not permitted thank you, Sonya

Also, I have a SSD hard drive. I saw the RTXI authors wrote something to the effect that hardware modifications in the graphics card to speed it up are non compatible. SSD is a hard ware modification, but not in graphics card.

Is a solid state drive (SSD) harddrive okay?

Problem seems like it is fixed. I can start the RTXI gui. I fixed "loading initial ramdisk" by using the standard installation, starting the program with "sudo rtxi" (emphasis on sudo), and holding shift during bootup to get the boot menu.

I also did some updates to ubuntu 16.04. Not sure if that was essential. I also did a custom installation. I don't think that was essential, and now my bootup menu shows two versions on xenomai. One runs, the other still shows "loading initial ramdisk".

Closing as this seems resolved
