    10.10 drivers nvidia compiz proprietary
    I am using Ubuntu 10.10 and have problem with proprietary nvidia driver for my GeForce GTS 250. I have issue with poor Compiz performance. And there is also open-source “noueau” driver.Proprietary: I tried many versions but neither works fast on desktop. This means 30 FPS without heavy effects. Currently I am using version 270.18. Even normal desktop use feels bad (moving windows) In games (and 3D benchmark) it is really good! (Unigine Heaven works good!) Open-source “nouveau”: Very fast on desk

    hardware drivers graphics ati proprietary
    When I installed Ubuntu on my desktop, everything seemed to “just work” — I used the proprietary ATI graphics card for my ATI Radeon HD 5870 and everything from Compiz to video to Amagetron Advanced worked perfectly fine.Then I tried Minecraft. It crashes when rendering the levels, and Googling the error message shows it to be a common issue with (well, bug in) the proprietary ATI drivers. So, I tried disabling them — and my entire desktop started flickering, Compiz exploded, and basically it

    drivers nvidia graphics gpu proprietary
    I just installed ubuntu on my newly built computer and wanted to use the proprietary drivers for my 650 ti BOOST. When I open the addtional drivers program it searches for available drivers but nothing shows up. I want to use the proprietary drivers because I had poor performance in minecraft and Team Fortress 2 crashes to desktop

    drivers ati graphics performance proprietary
    I have a performance problem with my Mobility Radeon HD 54__ graphics card using default open source drivers. I’m not talking about games but non-Full HD videos. Occasionally video freezes for a short while (sound remains unaffected) and then everything is fine for another while. Sorry for my explanation but I couldn’t find words to describe that behaviour. I cannot install proprietary drivers, because they seem to crash Ubuntu (13.10).

    nvidia xorg proprietary xserver
    Firstly i want to apologise for any mistakes, English is not my native language.My problem is I can’t get NVIDIA proprietary drivers to work. I tried to install it on Ubuntu 12.04.1 32 and 64 bits, Ubuntu 12.10 Beta 2, Linux Mint 13 Cinnamon 64 bits and openSUSE 12.2 64 bits and the error code and symptoms (logging to tty1 instead of GUI logging, low-res bootscreen) are the same for all of these distros.Right, I didn’t tell what’s the error code. It appears on sudo startx.NVIDIA: could not open

    command-line wireless drivers proprietary ubuntu-minimal
    I’m aware there’s already been a question and answer regarding Nvidia drivers, but my case is a little different. My wireless adapter’s driver is proprietary, and for a minimal install, I need a command to install it. A general command for any other restricted driver that I may come across in the future would also be extremely helpful.

    10.10 drivers ati proprietary
    I have recently bought humble bundle 2 ( http://www.humblebundle.com/ ). Is there a way to run Braid using ATI’s open-source drivers? The game always crashes. When do get it to start in windowed mode once i go to the first level it will crash. I am using the lastest version of Braid (ST3C ignored)When I use the proprietary drivers Braid works flawlessly and World of Goo performance is increased. However there is terrible screen tearing with the ATI propritary drivers.So my question is: How do I

    ati steam opengl proprietary
    I’m not sure whether it’s Steam that’s causing this, or just a co-incidence. When I load up Steam it tells me some stuff about my OpenGL and decreaced performance, so I press OK, then the client loads up for about 5 seconds then it just goes to a really low-res commandline where I cannot type anything.I am using the AMD Proprietary Drivers 13.6 on an ATi Radeon HD 6870.Thanks for your help guys.

    I have been trying to hammer out the installation of the ati proprietary drivers for Ubuntu/Precise.

I follow the steps exactly as shown and after everything is all said and done the “additional drivers” utility reports no proprietary hardware installed and the system info screen show unknown for the graphics.During the install i get no errors of any kind and the system reboots
