http://ubuntuforums.org – Ubuntu 12.04 Precise, nVidia GeForce 440 Which of the highlighted drivers should I be installing? I currently have the top one installed. The system seems to be working fine, but every once in a while, when the screensaver activates or I launch a video, it stutters for a second or two before smoothing out. See attached.

h264 stuttering 39 weeks 7 hours ago

I am trying to play an HD H.264 file on my Mythbuntu box. But VLC stutters and on mplayer the audio-video goes out of sync. The file plays fine on my windows box. My cpu is underpowered for software decoding(Athlon 3200). So I was hoping to use hardware decoding. I believe my video card comes with a H.264 decoder on it(NVidia Geforece 7600 GS).

I've installed Ubuntu 12.04 from CD and I really prefer the GNOME desktop to Unity. However when I reactivate my HP Pavilion dv6000 laptop from Suspend Mode, after logging in, I've experienced consistent graphical errors to the point that I can no longer make out an icon from the other or restart the computer (see attached picture).

Hi,

I have acer TravelMate 5760G Laptop, with Nvidia GeForce GT 540M graphics on it. Unfortunately, I can not get it to run with Nvidia drivers, what prohibits to run it with OpenGL.

I installed OpenSuse Gnome version 64 bit on a HP laptop DV7 Intel Dual Core with nVidia 9600 GM card

All went well, until after I had installed the nVidia drivers from this page: NVIDIA drivers - openSUSE

Sorry for the title but somehow everything got screwed after driver installation on 12.10.

Hi,

I just installed a BFG Nvidia based geforce 7950 gt OC edition card. the system is a updated / upgraded Lucid LTS. I have tried to get the drivers working by using nvidia-current and by adding the x-swat ppa and installing the 256.x series driver. I can in some cases get the card to function in 2d. I am unable to get compiz / effects working.

Hello, I am having a problem, seemingly with my NVIDIA onboard video. When I open any LibreOffice application, my whole screen goes blurry; see the attached screenshot. I am using 11.10 Oneiric with NVIDIA GeForce 7025.

Thanks.

Hi can anybody help with my Video problem, I have activated dual screen monitors using the Nvidia driver GUI as Sax2 would not correctly configure it. Now at every boot I get the message "undefined video mode 31a, press [enter] for a list of video modes or [space] to continue. After pressing space the system boots to my liking, how can I get rid of the message at every boot up?
