Re: Intel 530HD - bitsnpcs - 02-10-2017

firenice03 - yes I used the link you supplied, and made a second restore point before restarting.
It rebooted to the desktop fine, few lines of errors.
It is very fast indeed in use, mouse pointer, menus, terminal and gui opening.
There are no options in additional drivers for video drivers.

How about the default set up - any better with the newer kernel?

Graphics bit worse, as desktop shakes tiny bit on new kernel, it's fast but visible. Still only 640 x480 pixels available.

Still looking  >Sad
But did find this little gem - http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=intel-skl-prelim-support
Should work with any kernel.. Its modding the grub as you did with nomodeset.. But using
Code:
i915.preliminary_hw_support=1

Give the link a read thru - sounds like the issue with low resolution..

**Update **
Did find a bit more simplified instruction for the Intel graphics Installer; https://allanbogh.com/2016/01/05/ubuntu-16-04-installing-the-intel-graphics-drivers-using-the-intel-graphics-installer-for-linux/

firenice03 -
I have installed the Intel stack for Linux 1.0.4 like you said in earlier post, it said it was already installed, so I chose the option to remove and reinstall it like torreydale had told me to try with xorg as this can sometimes help.
I then have edited the grub how LL-user showed me, and removed nomodeset, now a driver is installed, so it looks for it.

It has worked, desktop looks great (like it usually should), I have played 1 video on YouTube, it plays correctly no issues.

The 1.0.4 it says has very recently been improved, in February 2017 by 1.0.5 with bug fixes , which were on the link you posted above.
I haven't experienced any bugs yet, I am thinking with the latest kernel the 1.0.5 may be matched better ?
If so I am unsure if I need to uninstall 1.0.4 first or if adding 1.0.5 does this ?
I cannot get the 1.0.5 download page to work at the moment its 404 error.


Re: Intel 530HD - torreydale - 02-10-2017

This is marked as solved.  That's good.  Create a restore point, and maybe even a Live ISO of your installation as a fallback.  You can find out how to do that (using Systemback) in the Tutorials section of the Help Manual.

I am confused, though.  What exactly was the solution?


Re: Intel 530HD - firenice03 - 02-10-2017

Good to hear you resolved it..

As suggested - Another backup and ISO of your configuration.. Bookmarking this thread or a couple notes  ;D ;D should you need in the future..  ;D ;D 8) ;D ;D


Re: Intel 530HD - bitsnpcs - 02-10-2017

Thank you firenice03, and torreydale Smile

I have followed this so far, bookmarked the thread, and following the Help Manual Tutorial made a systemback restore point, I have done an iso back up, I have written notes.
I've learned to do so many things during the process.


Re: Intel 530HD - bitsnpcs - 02-11-2017

When I set up Vb with LL3.2 will it need the same done for graphics stack and kernel, or will it use them  from the main LL 3.2 OS install, or maybe the graphics but I'll need to upgrade the kernel ?

I won't be doing it just yet I need to absorb things, I'll start following the tutorial in manual for setting up VB maybe next week.
