Problem-ubuntu-no graphical interface on laptop MEDION 96500-ATI Mobility X700 XL


Hi,

please help me to find a solution which works.
I just buy a notebook MEDION 96500. It has a graphical card : ATI Radeon Mobility X700 XL with 128 Mb of memory.

I tried to install a Kubuntu then an Ubuntu (Ubuntu 5.10 Breezy).
Now we always use Kubuntu then we don't want to change to another distribution which may works with this notebook. We prefer to continue using Kubuntu.

No problem to install Kubuntu (or Ubuntu) with the CD. But when it boot and arrive to 'Checking battery state ...' it freeze. I can 'kdm stop' and then have a terminal. I receive an OK for 'Loading ACPI modules' and 'starting periodic command scheduler.. n battery power. display manager.'

I used all the documentation I found on internet. In french or english. Nothing changed.

I also have a look to the ati website. I tried the their ati-installer. I install it and run fglrxconfig. Nothing changed except an error and no graphical interface. I also found and tried some options in the xorg.conf file (LVDS et TMDS), also the same, nothing changed. Even with the installation of fglrx-control, xorg-driver-fglrx and linux-restricted-modules.

I always tried all is possible on new installation of Kubuntu or ubuntu. I finished by installing fglrx-control, xorg-driver-fglrx and linux-restricted-modules and I run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg (which ask the same question than fglrxconfig but fglrxinfo, doesn't give any information and freeze).

A startx don't give a graphical interface. I just give an error saying that it can't find any screen device (have a look to the 2 log files here below).

If we look the lspci, we can see there is well a screen at 1:0:0 (see the 'lspci' result here : 0000:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc: Unknown device 564f).
******************************

I looked in windows and it give well a screen at the port pci 1.

I also tried default and precised installation. Nothing changed.
I tried those installation by choosing 'ati' or 'fglrx' or 'vesa' or 'vga'Nothing changed.

I even tried to replace the xorg (8.16.20 actually as installed default in the Kubuntu 5.10 breezy) by the 8.20 proposed on the ati website. But it is a rpm and changing it as a .deb with alien doesn't give any problem, but when I try a dpkg -i , it says it can't open the .deb and then make an error.

Here is my xorg.conf followed by the log for an 'ati' and a 'fglrx' :

I would edit xorg.conf and replace

Driver "ati"

with

Driver "radeon"

If that doesn't work I would put a # in font of BusID "PCI:1:0:0" unless I am sure that is where the video card has been located by previously running xorgconfig.

If possible I would check the refresh rate of the LCD screen to match the HorizSync and VertRefresh statements which are currently disabled by #

Dear Saikee,

thanks for you ideas. I will try it this afternoon.

If you saw a # before the HorizSync and VertRefresh is due to the fact I don't know the correct values and I prefer to protect my screen by disabling it to prevent it will be broken.

Then I will first try you two ideas.

I tried to run the check.sh program given with the ati driver but it doesn't answer.

Can you tell me how can I know the refreshing values ? Does it exist a command line or with knoppix may be ?

Have a nice day. I will inform you about the evolution of this problem.

Sincerely thanks.

I am afraid I would not have the refresh rate of your monitor screen.

You can try the manufacturer's site.

If everything fails you can try a few Live CDs and look at their xorg.conf setups to find a common setting that will display your monitor safely.
