[CALUG] CALUG Digest, Vol 82, Issue 8

[Lewis Berman]

I've ordered some random stuff including that receiver I talked about which converts photodiode input to 5v output and smooths it. Should arrive for experimentation next weekend.

Just upgraded a system to Ubuntu Studio 13.10 but I think the video
driver crapped out on me.  I get my desktop graphic but no desktop.

Can someone tell me how to roll back the video driver from the command
line?  I can get to that upon boot..

Thanks.

Charlie.

Hi Charlie,

What brand video card is it?


Ai

PS: For proprietary stuff there is a non free option thingy available in
Ubuntu, that may be the solution, I am aware, just not that familiar.
If its Nvidia, they do a pretty good job of providing binaries on their
website, so does ATI (AMD that is).

When I perform an upgrade I usually move my old home to a new name and
create a dummy directory. So when u start up KDE or gnome creates all new
directories.

Try that first and then proceed to this website.

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto

Hope this helps.
