| [18:29] <ecanals> I'm having a driver related issue and want to know where I should post my question | |
| [18:29] <ecanals> I'm using Edubuntu 12.04 | |
| [18:37] <highvoltage> ecanals: http://askubuntu.com/ is usually very responsive | |
| [18:37] <ecanals> thanks | |
| [18:37] <highvoltage> ecanals: you could ask here too and if someone happens to know, they could help, but IRC is usually a mixed bag and people come and go | |
| [18:37] <ecanals> I'll try that now | |
| [18:41] <ecanals> yea, I know how it is | |
| [18:41] <ecanals> I've been searching for this for 2 days now to no avail | |
| [18:44] <brunolambert> "this" being? | |
| [18:46] <ecanals> I need to find the drivers for an Intel Atom Integrated Graphics processor | |
| [18:47] <ecanals> the card is compatible with | |
| [18:47] <ecanals> Atom D2500 | |
| [18:47] <ecanals> D2700 | |
| [18:47] <ecanals> N2100 | |
| [18:47] <ecanals> N2600 | |
| [18:47] <ecanals> and N2800 | |
| [18:48] <ecanals> or Intel UMA integrated graphics controller | |
| [19:22] <ecanals> well now my graphics card shows as Vesa Intel XX | |
| [19:22] <ecanals> but I can't adjust the screen resolution | |
| [19:23] <ecanals> its stuck at 800x300 | |
| [19:23] <ecanals> 4:3 | |
| [20:10] <highvoltage> ecanals: ah, that's interesting | |
| [20:15] <highvoltage> ecanals: so is this some new integrated gpu that's different to the old atom ones? | |
| [20:35] <stgraber> ecanals: can you paste the output of "lspci -nnn | grep VGA" please? | |
| [20:36] <stgraber> I'm wondering if you don't happen to have a cedarview intel graphic card | |
| [20:36] <stgraber> if you do, then you'll have to wait a few more weeks as the enablement for these in 12.04 is still ongoing and scheduled to land within the next month | |
| [20:43] <ecanals> ok | |
| [20:43] <ecanals> will do | |
| [20:43] <ecanals> I'm not on the machine at the moment | |
| [20:46] <ecanals> out of curiosity | |
| [20:46] <ecanals> what would be considered the optimal desktop UI for edubuntu | |
| [20:47] <ecanals> unity, gnome, or KDE | |
| [20:47] <ecanals> ? | |
| [20:48] <highvoltage> ecanals: unity and gnome-fallback is currently supported. gnome-shell and kde works fine but the edubuntu developers don't explicitely support them | |
| [20:48] <ecanals> I see | |
| [20:49] <highvoltage> ecanals: basically, all of those are fine. we're mostly targeting unity for future features that we want to introduce since it's the default in both ubuntu and edubuntu | |
| [20:49] <ecanals> just wondering, as there are several packages for the edubuntu bundle that are specifically for KDE | |
| [20:49] <highvoltage> ecanals: yep, they rely on KDE libraries, but don't require a KDE desktop | |
| [20:50] <ecanals> ok then | |
| [20:50] <ecanals> good to know | |
| [20:51] <ecanals> I'm curious about something else... | |
| [20:51] <ecanals> I've seen other versions of ubuntu that have been re-branded, so to speak | |
| [20:52] <ecanals> Kimo is one of them I believe | |
| [20:52] <ecanals> sorry | |
| [20:52] <ecanals> Qimo | |
| [20:53] <highvoltage> ecanals: you could probably look at the edubuntu-artwork package as an example of rebranding | |
| [20:53] <ecanals> is this in violation of any of Ubuntu terms of use | |
| [20:53] <ecanals> i see | |
| [20:54] <highvoltage> ecanals: nope, you may change all the branding | |
| [20:55] <ecanals> so it would ok to rebrand the boot screen, lock, screen, etc. with company branding | |
| [20:55] <highvoltage> yep | |
| [20:55] <ecanals> lock screen* | |
| [20:56] <ecanals> ok | |
| [20:59] <ecanals> I'm still working on this graphics card issue | |
| [21:00] <ecanals> I shotgunned the synaptic, which wasnt a good idea, and had to reformat | |
| [21:00] <ecanals> finishing up now | |
| [22:05] <ecanals_> sorry for the delay | |
| [22:05] <ecanals_> output for lspci -nnn | grep VGA | |
| [22:06] <ecanals_> Intel Corporation Atom Processor D2xxx/N2xxx Integrated Graphics Controller | |
| [22:06] <ecanals_> [8086:0be1](rec09) | |
| [22:06] <ecanals_> (rev09)* | |
| [23:10] <ecanals_> stgraber: it is a cedarview chipset | |
| [23:11] <ecanals_> I'm trying to work through it right now with the sarvat/cedarview ppa | |
| [23:29] <ecanals_> well, it works | |
| [23:30] <ecanals_> had to tweak a few ofthe steps in this guide http://daily.siebler.eu/2012/06/ubuntu-12-04-driver-for-intel-cedarview-atom-n2000-und-d2000-serie/ | |
| [23:30] <ecanals_> and this one:http://askubuntu.com/questions/163448/fixing-800x600-resolution-in-toshiba-nb510-gma-3650-with-vesa-driver | |
| [23:30] <ecanals_> but it seems to be working for now | |
