  Intel based video driver help needed...
Posted by: glin22 - 06-27-2015, 07:41 PM - Forum: Video Cards - Replies (3)

The computer I am trying to fix now uses an Intel based video driver. I tried to do an install drivers to see what's going on, I can see the window come up and then it will just go away. Also, when I try to update my sources a window wants to come up but it will also go away. This install was done with the same install disk which I have verified to have a good md5 checksum.

Here is the info from an inxi -g command

Graphics:  Card: Intel 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE Integrated Graphics Device
          X.Org: 1.15.1 drivers: intel (unloaded: fbdev,vesa) Resolution: [email protected]
          GLX Renderer: Mesa DRI Intel 845G x86/MMX/SSE2 GLX Version: 1.3 Mesa 10.1.3

Basically, the system works with the exception of what I have said above, should I be using the above driver or is there another one that is better ?

  After install, system freezes...
Posted by: glin22 - 06-24-2015, 06:15 PM - Forum: Video Cards - Replies (11)

Hi folks,

I've been through about 7 installs of various versions of Linux - Ubuntu 14.04-2 LTS, Lubuntu 15.05, Lubuntu 15.04 Alt, and now Linux lite 2.4, all 32 bit versions. The basics of my system- 2 MB ram, Intel core 2 duo, onboard VGA support.

I got Ubuntu installed but had freezes most of the time (barely useable), Lubuntu would freeze up during install procedure, Linux lite 2.4 installed fine.

I was really happy as Linux lite seemed to fit the bill better than the other versions of LInux, but sometimes I would still freeze up like when I would try to use Firefox, check display config screen settings, and doing stuff in the terminal. But Linux lite is *FAR* more stable than anything else I've tried so I'd like to see if we can fix this or at least find out why my probs are happening. The bad part is that when I freeze up I can't get into the terminal at all, Ctrl - Alt- F2 or CTrl - alt- T will not work, are there any other key combos that can get a terminal going ?

I'd appreciate if someone who has more skills than I do can give me some ideas on what to check out, etc. Do you have a pastebinit thingie that I can use to ship you more detailed tech info on the system ? Tell me what you want me to do.

I really like what the Linux Lite team has done, you Dev folks have done a very nice thing, but hope we can get the system more stable.

Thanks,
glin22
