Problems with 1.0-9631 on Geforce4 420 Go - Page 2

marioquark · 04-30-07, 06:20 AM

now the drivers starts, but i have black borders around my laptop lcd display...
what's the problem?
there's my verbose X log
tnx

watsonalgas · 04-30-07, 09:28 AM

That Xorg log you posted said:

Code:

(WW) NVIDIA(GPU-0): Unable to read EDID for display device CRT-0
(WW) NVIDIA(0): No valid modes for "1024x768"; removing.
(II) NVIDIA(0): Virtual screen size determined to be 800 x 600

I'm guessing that's your problem. Have you set up the custom EDID.bin file as shown above in this thread? That's what fixed mine. Look through xorg.conf again and the custom edid.bin to make sure everything is in the right path and set up properly.

yes, it goes!

this is my xorg file

toastyjojio · 05-03-07, 02:33 AM

hiya. runnin a toshiba sat.pro with geforce4 420 go/ just picked up new version of fiesty ubuntu.
being linux-new, i tried playing with the new "desktop effects" button: i was offered a driver for my card so as to take advantage of my "3D capabilities", etc. fine, says itinstalled, etc.

upon restart: zip, nada, nothing but a scary poltergeist-looking screen going black and white, black and white....

for now i just reinstalled fiesty and won't touch that button...

however, y'all seem to be doin' things in a terminal or something....i am only just figuring my way thru synaptic, so this part of the learning curve seems steep..........????shall i assume that this is a result of running your 'puters off a "recovery" mode from bootup? (question 1)

if so, i hope i will soon understand what you are talking about....i would like to play silly desktop-effect-games, just like the other reindeer. as well, i am sure there are likely new frontiers in graphics-watching that i am unable to participate in.

so my command line starts off in /root...?????where/how do i go from there to find my nvid card drivers so i can type in these wondrous ciphers i see on this thread?
(question 2)

thanky kindly, even a penny will do

joji!

After hours spent screwing around with every setting I could in xorg.conf, the custom EDID did the trick: 1400x1050 on a Toshiba Satellite 5105 with the nvidia binary driver (1.0-9631). Phew! Many thanks to the posts above. I used khexedit and it was a breeze. For those who'd just like the binary, I've attached it below. Just save and gunzip the file (I put it in /etc/X11/), then add this line to your Screen section in xorg.conf:

Code:

Option "CustomEDID" "DFP-0:/etc/X11/ToshibaSatellite5105EDID.bin"

I removed most of the other Option settings I had in xorg.conf, except the following, in the Device section:

Code:

Option "ExactModeTimingsDVI" "1"
Option "IgnoreDisplayDevices" "TV"
Option "DPMS"
Option "BackingStore" "1"
Option "nvAGP" "2"
Option "MultisampleCompatibility" "1"
Option "DPI" "116 x 116"
Option "RenderAccel" "1"
Option "AllowDDCCI" "True"
Option "UseDisplayDevice" "DFP"

I also decided not to use any modelines, but you probably could.

SentinelT · 05-10-07, 09:56 AM

Using the custom edid also works on the following laptop

Toshiba satellite pro te2100
PCLinuxOs2007 TR4

I customised my own file with khexedit

I could kiss both "orlo11" & "don7887" for this fix
I have been putting up with a black band and 800x600
for months...This is GREAT

Well done guys (posting this fix in the pclos forum right now)

danaldinho · 05-14-07, 03:10 AM

Sentinel could i possibly get you to post the .bin?

thanks

SentinelT · 05-21-07, 05:30 AM

Here is my edid.bin file sorry about the wait I have been working away.

Edit: Just tried the edid file from "ac4000" and it did not work on my laptop,
so it looks like the edid.bin will have to be for specific models.

nvnewser · 03-17-08, 04:37 AM

Wshutzer, Orlo1010, you guys are ****ing fantastic. This problem was bugging me for months and I had given up on it.

I summarized your solutions for other n00bs like myself

Black bar problem with Nvidia drivers on a Geforce4 420 / 440 Go 16 / 32 Megabyte graphics card? Toshiba Satellite 1415? 14XX? I hear ya. The solution is found in these forums. I've summarized it here.

Here's something that worked for me (on a Toshiba Satellite 1415-S105):

download this custom EDID (edid.bin.gz) by clicking the highlighted text.
uncompress it to the directory: /etc/X11 (so:it is now "/etc/X11/edid.bin" - not "/etc/X11/edid.bin.gz") - you may need to be root or use "sudo" command to do this
open your xorg.conf file (found in the directory: /etc/X11) in a text editor - you may need to be root to do this.
add this line to the end of the section marked "Section "Device"" (make a new line and add it right before the "EndSection" line):

Option "CustomEDID" "DFP-0:/etc/X11/edid.bin"

that section should now look something like this:

Section "Device"
Identifier "nVidia Corporation NV17 [GeForce4 420 Go]"
Driver "nvidia"
Busid "PCI:1:0:0"
Option "AddARGBVisuals" "True"
Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True"
Option "NoLogo" "True"
Option "CustomEDID" "DFP-0:/etc/X11/edid.bin"
EndSection

(Don't mind the highlight color)
save all your work
close open applications
restart your xserver by holding down the "CTRL", "ALT" and "Back Space" buttons at the same time

when the login screen appears, you should notice that the black bar has already disappeared. Lucky You!
Log in and you should find that the max resolution of 1024x768 has already been selected and applied for you.

for those of you that can't get into X (your GUI / Desktop), you might want to edit your xorg.conf file from the command prompt with a simple text editor such as vim. You would get X running again by changing

Code:

Driver     "nvidia"

to

Code:

Driver    "nv"

in the "Section "Device"" section, saving, and starting X back up. This would allow you to download the edid.bin file and make the necessary changes with ease. You could also download Puppy OS, burn it to a CD, boot your computer off of that, mount your local HDD, download the edid.bin file, put it in /etc/X11 of the target drive and do the necessary text editing of your xorg.conf with Abiword (for example). In Puppy, you are already root, so permissions wouldn't be a problem.

thanks nvnewser, you're a lifesaver! I've been pulling hair out over this ever since I started trying to get it to work with ubuntu 8.10... and the problem persisted in 9.04, even after i tried modifying my own edid.bin dump. I suspect the refresh rate was screwed in it.

Stoshiba · 01-09-10, 03:44 PM

Hey, I've been messing with my xorg.conf and trying to lose the black bar on the right hand side of my screen now for 2 days with no luck.

I am running Linux Mint 8 Through a Toshiba Satellite 2410, user manual tells me 1410/2410 series.
Geforce4 420 Go 16MB

I am using CRT-0 for my monitor and was wondering if there is a fix for the CRT-0 edid.bin file? and if so what are the offsets/hex that i need to edit?

I used Synaptic Package Manager to install nvidia-glx-96 : version: 96.43.13Oubuntu6 drivers as my first option through (recommended) "Hardware Drivers" program install section install left my computer running the cpu at 100%

Here is my xorg.conf -

(II) NVIDIA(0): Virtual screen size determined to be 800 x 600 I'm guessing that's your problem. Have you set up the custom EDID.bin file as shown above in this thread? That's what fixed mine. Look through xorg.conf again and the custom edid.bin to make sure everything is in the right path and set up properly.

(question 1) if so, i hope i will soon understand what you are talking about....i would like to play silly desktop-effect-games, just like the other reindeer. as well, i am sure there are likely new frontiers in graphics-watching that i am unable to participate in. so my command line starts off in /root...?????where/how do i go from there to find my nvid card drivers so i can type in these wondrous ciphers i see on this thread? (question 2) thanky kindly, even a penny will do joji!

I've been pulling hair out over this ever since I started trying to get it to work with ubuntu 8.10... and the problem persisted in 9.04, even after i tried modifying my own edid.bin dump. I suspect the refresh rate was screwed in it.
