Re: System freeze using sony-laptop-zseries-0.9np8pre3

 

Well in my attempt to get switching graphics workings, I'm not in a situation where I get dropped to shell and have to type lightdm to get X up and running. I've installed and removed all of nvidia. Tried reinstalling the intel modules. Still get dropped to the shell.
The nvidia drivers to not pick up the graphics card.

Here is my current dmesg:

Well I fixed it by installing nvidia-current, breaking my system
completely then uninstalling nvidia-current.
No idea what happened there.
I don't know what you are talking about concerning nvidia-current and
not.

The point is that you have to disable nouveau.
Best wishes

THROCKING (participial vb.)
The action of continually pushing down the lever on a pop-up toaster
in the hope that you will thereby get it to understand that you want
it to toast something. Also: a style of drum-playing favoured by Nigel
Olsson of the Elton John Band, reminiscent of the sound of someone
slapping a frankfurter against a bucket. An excellent example of this
is to be heard on 'Someone Save My Life Tonight' from the album
Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy.
