intel display and wireless driver for debian lenny
Hi ,
I installed Debian Lenny on my notebook , This has an intel GM965 graphics card and and Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 4965 AG wireless card. Display Card Issue : The driver that is installed is xserver-xorg-video-intel version that is installed is 2:2.3.2+lenny6, The display seems to be lagging sometimes and i think this might be because the xserver is not configured correctly. This is my xorg.conf Quote:
I tried running Quote:
but didn't help me much , also when i try running a video using mplayer , i get the below error message Quote:
Quote:
Wireless Network : The machine is not able to detect any wireless connection near, Quote:

Please help ...... Thanks Peeths |
Section "ServerFlags"
Option "AllowMouseOpenFail" "true" Option "DontZap" "off" EndSection Section "Device" Identifier "Configured Video Device" Driver "intel" Option "AccelMethod" "UXA" Option "MigrationHeuristic" "smart" EndSection Section "Module" Load "dbe" Load "dri" Load "extmod" Load "glx" Load "bitmap" Load "record" EndSection Section "DRI" Mode 0666 EndSection On my desktop the above is what my xorg.conf looks like. You will probably want a section for the touchpad as well. For the wirelss take a look at http://wiki.debian.org/WiFi |

if I add the same details above will that be sufficient for the xserver to function properly ? I mean without any lag and also for video .
|
Wireless network is up and running .....
Thanks , I am trying to configure my xserver ......... |
Hi ,
This is how my xorg.conf looks , but the display is the same , not able to play video Quote:
|
First change the UXA to Exa or XAA then in mplayer's preferences set the video to xv.
|
That did the trick , thanks a lot ............... ( :) )
|
I got another problem now . with compiz-fusion there no video from mplayer or any other player , This is becoming weird .

Try adding to your xorg.conf
Section "Extensions" Option "Composite" "Enable" Endsection http://wiki.debian.org/Compiz |
Hi ,
Still no luck ......... :( . This is how my xorg.conf looks now . Quote:
Addition of the below block in xorg.conf increased the display performance. Section "Extensions" Option "Composite" "enable" EndSection What will i do now ? Thanks Anoop |
Your video card might have problems with the xv driver (what's your default resolution? do you have descent hw acceleration).
Does it work with X11 instead of xv (in mplayer)? |
My default resolution is 1200x800 .
Yes I am pretty sure it has a decent hw accelaration. I also have Fedora in the same machine , with whih the video works well and fine with compiz fusion . it works with X11 drivers , but full screen is not available in that (:() and I also tried with the gl driver , but it flickers sometimes. am not sure why This is what i get when i use gl driver Quote:

If it works in fedora, why not just copy the xorg.conf and mplayer.conf from there to your debian partition? Other than package versions and the way they are installed linux is pretty much linux. Settings that work on one distro will normally work on a different one.
