Hi Suresh,
please upgrade your ubuntu to Karmic,

Hope this can help you.

hey ivan and everyone else,

after installing ubuntu 9.10 there’s no trouble no more with the playback of videos. youtube fullscreen isn’t working that fluently, but honestly i don’t need this that much.

greets, philipp

Hi Phillip,
What is the version of kernel you are using now?
I suggest you to wait 3 more days from now Ubuntu will release v9.10 karmic koala or use karmic koala RC it is already available now.
Hope it will better than Jaunty.

hi again,
due to your article my intel 82865g finally worked. but after updating (no dist-upgrade!!) my jaunty the system freezes when logging in. anyone else experiencing difficulties since the lastest updates?
anyone tried the tarball-package from intellinuxgraphics.com?
any ideas how i can figure out whats freezing my system? i just formatted my hdd, reinstalled the whole os and then i immediately set up the graphics just like you described above before installing anything else. froze anyway!
any ideas?

Hi,
this howto worked for me on a thinkpad x31. The performance is alright now. BUT my keyboard is messed up. There is an option to navigate your cursor with the numpad. and somehow that was turned on. I turned t off in the ubuntu keyboard options. my numpad are the keys 7,8,9,u,i,o,j… Now that I turned it off the keys functioned as a numpad instead of the letters. so I hit numlock which on my thinkpad keyboard is shift+roll. unfortunately it tunred out the combination to toggle the “move your mouse with your numpad” feature is shift numlock. shift+numlock = shift+roll in my case… That’s not it – my capslock key acts all weird too. it switches numlock or the “move your mouse with the numpad” option on…
I tried some stuff with the ubuntu keyboad preerences and shortcut settings, did a “sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg” but nothing worked 8[.
Help Me PLEASE!

The very last command:

sudo dpkg -i linux-headers-2.6.29-02062904-generic_2.6.29-02062904_i386.deb linux-headers-2.6.29-02062904_2.6.29-02062904_all.deb linux-image-2.6.29-02062904-generic_2.6.29-02062904_i386.deb

Throws up an error with the first one: no such file or directory.

Hi there.

I’ve just done exactly what is described here. Now since Kernel 2.6.29 … should be loaded (it actually does that on my system without an error), i was wondering if i was actually now runing on 2.6.29.

With “uname -r” i wanted to see, but for some reason it’s 2.6.27..

Why?

I have repeated step 6 now twice, but no change. Install works fine, no problems, but the kernel stays 2.6.27 …
