display problem in centos
Hi
I have a Sony VGN-SZ770N. It has two STAMINA and SPEED modes. I have installed windows VISTA and CENTOS-5.6 when it was on SPEED mode. VISTA works well with both modes. But in STAMINA mode CENTOS-5.6 can not start X-SERVER on neither card0 and/or card1. To resolve the problem I did the followings: 1) yum install x-org-x11-drv-i810 2) system config-display --reconfig –set-drive=intel_drv --set-depth=24 3) system config-display But the problem resist and I can just enter command mode of CENTOS. After the 3rd step, so system config-display, I receive the following messages: Couldn’t start X server on card0 Couldn’t start X server on card1 Couldn’t start X server with old config, trying with a fresh configuration Couldn’t start X server on card0 Couldn’t start X server on card1 I mention that I can not use SPEED mode because of physical damage to this mode (In SPEED mode monitor show vertical lines and dotted screen and just STAMINA mode show a clear screen). My card is under a Mobile Intel 965 Express chipset family. So how can I solve the problem??????????? I have attached the xorg.conf created by system config-display; Xorg.setup.log and Xorg.0.log as follows 1) xorg.conf conent: # Xorg configuration created by system-config-display Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "Default Layout" Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0 InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard" InputDevice "Synaptics" "CorePointer" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Keyboard0" Driver "kbd" Option "XkbModel" "pc105" Option "XkbLayout" "us" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Synaptics" Driver "synaptics" Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice" Option "Protocol" "auto-dev" Option "Emulate3Buttons" "yes" Option "LeftEdge" "120" Option "RightEdge" "830" Option "TopEdge" "120" Option "BottomEdge" "650" Option "FingerLow" "14" Option "FingerHigh" "15" Option "MaxTapMove" "110" Option "VertScrollDelta" "20" Option "HorizScrollDelta" "20" Option "MinSpeed" "0.3" Option "MaxSpeed" "0.75" EndSection Section "Device" Identifier "Videocard0" Driver "intel_drv" EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen0" Device "Videocard0" DefaultDepth 24 SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 24 EndSubSection EndSection 2) Xorg.setup.log conent: X Window System Version 7.1.1 Release Date: 12 May 2006 X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0, Release 7.1.1 Build Operating System: Linux 2.6.18-53.el5 i686 Red Hat, Inc.

CentOS 5.6 ??
that is unsupported and has been for a few years the current and only supported version of the OLDER 5 series is CentOS 5.9 With CentOS 6.4 as the current version the older RHEL/CentOS 5 series is starting to show it's age and lack of support for new hardware from the sony page http://store.sony.com/p/VGN-SZ770N/C...specifications the older rhel/cent did not support this --- Technology : Hybrid Graphics System --- installing a old SERVER grade operating system on a laptop is not relay a great idea rhel will mostly work mostly well on most "laptops" , but not on all of them common issues are no mouse pad no sound no mouse buttons bad graphics -- some unfixable problems -- no graphics , text only RHEL5 was never designed to be used on a laptop if you MUST use the older rhel/cent os 5 install the current CentOS 5.9 and install it on a desktop If you must stay in the RHEL "family" of OperatingSystems have a look at Fedora 19 -- but be warned fedora is a "Research and Development " distro , and may not always work as expected or CentOS 6.4 , but centos 6 still might not support the "Hybrid Graphics System" that are on some laptops |
