Lenovo notebook Y450, Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS

 

1. issues that can be solved:

 

(1) after the driver is installed, the screen is displayed on and off, with a low resolution;

(2) the boot screen appears directly, and the progress is missed.

2. Solution: uvesafb replaces vesafb (I don't know what it means)

3. required packages:

(1) v86d (required by uvesafb)

(2) hwinfo (view framebuffer)

4. steps

(1) install the driver:

Method 1: Download the latest driver from the Nvidia official website, but you have to block nouveau first, and there will be a huge Nvidia Logo after installation. I didn't use this method.

Method 2: System --> Administration --> Hardware Drivers.

 

I am using the first one, but there is a problem. we need to disable the built-in nouveau first.

 

The procedure is as follows:

 

Install the driver with the official driver, copy the driver to the main folder, and press Ctrl + Alt + F1 to return to the terminal and log on to sudo/etc/init. d/gestation stop, and then run sudo sh. /Nv ....... (driver software name), it will prompt nouveau to be in use, and then will ask you if you want to create a file to prohibit nnouveau, select Yes, keep clicking, will exit the terminal interface, sudo reboot restarts to the machine learning platform for AI desktop, press Ctrl + Alt + F1 to return to the terminal, and log on to sudo/etc/init. d/gestation stop, remove X desktop, and run sudo sh again. /Nv ....... (driver software name), the driver will be installed normally, after sudo reboot is installed, complete.

 

If we follow the above steps, we will also prompt nouveau to be in use, that is, it is not completely blocked, because the kernel is still loading nouveau. It seems that both 10.04.3LTS and later versions do not work. Solution:

 

After the/etc/modprobe. d/nvidia-installer-disable-nouveau.conf file is generated, execute:

 

1

Update-initramfs-u

2

Update-grub2

Restart the system to install the NVIDIA driver.

(2) installation package:

 

1

Sudo apt-get install v86d hwinfo

 

(3) view framebuffer

 

1

Sudo hwinfo -- framebuffer

The result is as follows:

 

01

Tsl0922 @ ubuntu :~ $ Sudo hwinfo -- framebuffer

Tsl0922 @ ubuntu :~ $

My laptop resolution is 1366x768, so what I need is: 1360x768-24

 

(4) modify the grub file

 

 

1

Sudo gedit/etc/default/grub

Bytes -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

# If you change this file, run 'UPDATE-grub 'afterwards to update

#/Boot/grub. cfg.

 

GRUB_DEFAULT = 0

GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT = 0

GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET = true

GRUB_TIMEOUT = 10

GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR = 'lsb _ release-I-s 2>/dev/null | echo Debian'

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT = "quiet splash nomodeset video = uvesafb: mode_option = 1360x768-24, mtrr = 3, scroll = ywrap"

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX = ""

 

# Uncomment to disable graphical terminal (grub-pc only)

# GRUB_TERMINAL = console

 

# The resolution used on graphical terminal

# Note that you can use only modes which your graphic card supports via VBE

# You can see them in real GRUB with the command 'vbeinfo'

# GRUB_GFXMODE = 1360x768

 

# Uncomment if you don't want GRUB to pass "root = UUID = xxx" parameter to Linux

# GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID = true

 

# Uncomment to disable generation of recovery mode menu entries

# GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_RECOVERY = "true"

 

# Uncomment to get a beep at grub start

# GRUB_INIT_TUNE = "480 440 1"

Bytes -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(5) modify initramfs:

 

1

Sudo gedit/etc/initramfs-tools/modules

Bytes -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

# List of modules that you want to include in your initramfs.

#

# Syntax: module_name [args...]

#

# You must run update-initramfs (8) to effect this change.

#

# Examples:

#

# Raid1

# Sd_mod

Uvesafb mode_option = 1360x768-24 mtrr = 3 scroll = ywrap

Bytes -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

(6) force the use of Framebuffer:

 

1

Echo FRAMEBUFFER = y | sudo tee/etc/initramfs-tools/conf. d/splash

(7) update grub and initramfs:

1

Sudo update-grub2

2

Sudo update-initramfs-u

(8) restart
