Some Issues with my LMCE14.04media playback, orbiter resolution and Motion wrapp
theteju:
Hey guys,,
I am experiencing some issues with my system and unable to resolve despite my efforts. The purpose of the thread is not to complain but to report.
I would try my level best to explain as much as I can.
1.) I have Nvidia 6200 card and as we know it is not supported by latest driver. Therefore I went ahead and installed nvidia-304-131. The system is successfully running however, here are the related issue.
First of all, I was never able to see clearly AVWizard except step 1. as soon as I pick DVI, Resolution, and refresh rates. all rest steps were completely unreadable. I finished AVwizard blindly used my experience for it. having said. I have UI on my screen that is completely off tract. I am attaching the pic.
I may be able to solve the problem with 1.) manually edit xorg.conf 2.) re run AV wizard which I have already tried unsuccessfully. On the same system I sometimes boot into separate desktop (debian KDE) where I use same nvidia driver for same card and the resolution looks perfect on that while for LMCE even on KDE desktop, the card is not at its best.
Third,, I sometimes get error during boot saying "fixing recursive fault but reboot needed" and it hangs up. two third attempt and its boots normally for me.
I believe these all are related to my Nvidia card. and the way driver has installed and also the kernel issue. I would post xorg.conf for both system here so someone can help.
2.) When I play any video file on the LMCE , the picture not at all sync with my monitors resolution. I do not know ,, weather its nvidia again or something with xine player issue.
3.) I have installed a logitech 9000 security camera according to wiki page and it works perfect. however, other day I noticed that my /etc/pluto/bin directory was flooded with .jpg files and I noticed those images were from my camera whenever I accessed security webcam from the orbiter. "is that normal ?" I never seen that happening before unless design has been changed.
Please see the following command outputs, hope that helps.

These are the info from other system where,, Nvidia card runs very smoothly.

xorg.conf from that system. http://paste.debian.net/432046/
These information might be irrelevant since other system is 64 bit and LMCE is 32 bit. I don;t know,, hope someone can help here.
Thanks again for looking into this.

Did you modify the setup scripts that you had been asked to modify in IRC?
The security pics should not end up in /usr/pluto/bin but end up in /home/securitypics

Yes, that is how I was able to install the desire driver. here..
cat /usr/pluto/bin/nvidia-install.sh = http://paste.ubuntu.com/15751654/

That must be system's fault. I know I added camera exactly how it says on wiki. What can I check to confirm?
Thanks.

I now remember that I had to blacklist "nouveau" module in order to have nvidia install. I followed a post and blacklist following modules. Perhaps one of those are responsible why I do not have proper AV wizard. Is it possible?
here are the list of blacklist.conf modules.
blacklist amd76x_edac
blacklist vga16fb
blacklist nouveau
blacklist rivafb
blacklist rivatv
blacklist nvidiafb
