GOOD NEWS

Is that, yes, I can start and run JACK on my Scarlett 2i4 @ 64/3 hence this new 3.11 kernel has passed my USB test BUT

BAD NEWS

The binary NV driver module re-compile (I'm using the recommended driver version -319 - from the Ubuntu repos) failed with errors like this (took from when I tried to get it working with jockey-kde, not when installing the kernel)

MORE BAD NEWS / WARNING!

I can no longer boot my older 3.5 or 3.8 kernels after having installed 3.11 ll for some reason. I wasn't expecting that!

Might the fixes be in proposed already F?

Here's the point my 3.5 ll kernel gets to in the boot process after installing 3.11 ll.

It stops dead here - I have no other option at this point than shutting it down.

I can login on the first VT OK but 'sudo kdm' does nothing, and I checked CTRL+ALT+F7 (VT7/where xorg should be) but no, X does not appear to start any more under 3.5 and 3.8.

The kernel upgrade worked OK for you but you're on intel gfx (right?) hence no closed driver issues on kernel upgrades. An additional complication is that I was running the non-free Virtualbox on here too, which adds another kernel module for DKMS to worry about.

I'll have to try adding that proposed repo first but if that doesn't fix 3.5 booting or get me a proper x driver under 3.11 then I'll have to re-install and avoid installing 3.11 for a while.

It is odd for installing a new kernel to have the effect of fubarring older ones. I don't think I've seen this before myself.

Actually this is something more common than you think. The problem is that your VGA driver is now pre-configured for the new kernel. The reason why this is not happening on falkTX's machine is probably because it has Intel VGA.

Normally you just have to run jockey-kde (aka the additional drivers tool) under kubuntu/KX but I've already given you the errors that produces above.

I'll prob try installing the drivers off the nvidia site manually before I re-install, which is the plan B in these scenarios.

why don't you use sgfxi? http://smxi.org/

Re: 3.11-lowlatency kernel

My previous KX install, the one I was having probs with yesterday, was admittedly getting a bit bloated and messy so I decided to just re-install today. I really wanted to install Deb testing this time to see how well the KX repos work under Debian but I thought it best for the KX team to install KX from the 12.04.3 ISO.

Straight after install I did an apt-upgrade, reboot, installed kernel 3.11, rebooted then tried installing the NV driver via jockey-kde again but it still fails with the same errors. I think I prefer running a newer kernel without full gfx accel but I don't really want to enable the proposed repo. I think I'll stick with 3.11 but I may end up returning to 3.5.

The good but expected news of this re-install was that I can still boot into 3.8 after I installed 3.11 this time. I have no idea what caused all that before. It has also highlighted a problem in the driver tool (jockey-kde) I had prob forgotten about. When it fails to build/install the kernel module for the NV driver it does not purge the failed driver for you so the user has a crippled xorg (1 display at 1024x768 with no accel) until they purge the failed nvidia package.

I'm happy with the KX manual now its been updated for 12.04.3 except for one part and that is the last paragraph of the 'Are you running the best kernel for your hardware?' section of the new Choosing and Installing kernels chapter:

http://wiki.linuxaudio.org/wiki/choosin ... ng_kernels

I'm not happy with it because as far as I know the Catalyst driver probably doesn't work yet with the 3.11 kernel (because the NV driver failed) but I don't know for sure as no-one has tested this and reported back to F and myself yet.

Has anyone tried installing either driver under 3.11 lowlatency yet?

I dont have time to do this until sunday but i will give it a go knowing that i may have to perform a full resinstall.

But i could probably do with a fresh install anyway. So ill report back as to what happens.

I'm running 64 bit using a geforce onboard chipset (something like a geforce 6100 nforce 401 chipset)

I do have an ati card but its a legacy card and the my pcie slot stopped working. i doubt the legacy drivers will work considering that getting them working in current ubuntu versions means using a PPA that downgrades xorg to a version that is compatible with the legacy catylist drivers

Thanks Bazsound, although I'm more interested in finding out if Catalyst works OK with 3.11 as you know.

It's good to re-install occasionally esp. if you've installed loads of stuff you've ended up not using and not cleared it up properly, which can be tricky sometimes if you've installed apps from source and there was no make uninstall script etc.

3.11? Catalyst?

My particular AMD chip, although only a few years old, is "leagacy," and I can't update beyond 3.2.

Oh well, looking on the bright side, I don't have to worry about USB audio drivers :lol:

I've not tried it myself so far but it looks like Nvidia have finally updated their driver to support Linux 3.11 and 3.12 although it doesn't look like NV driver 331.20+ has made it into the precise repos yet.

I wouldn't go out of your way testing AMD drivers in 3.11 kernel for personal use, especially if you have a working configuration at this moment; you might just want to wait a little longer for 3.12. Last month's benchmark release on open source AMD Radeon performance within the 3.12 kernel in comparison with 3.11 and earlier on the Phoronix website ( http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=a ... ajor&num=1 ) might indicate the possibility of a payoff for all the blood, sweat, and tears shed in the name of system performance and consistency for some of us with AMD cards. I have an HP Pavilion dv6000 series with a Mobility HD 4200 card, no longer supported past kernel 3.4. I am actually still trying to get this Catalyst Legacy 3.1 driver installed on fresh KXStudio after 2 weeks and I have re-installed from the ISO 5 times because of it. I had it working in May, it was a beautiful thing, but with loss of support for the proprietary hardware, I will eventually be forced to scrap music production on this machine without better open source development. So, I hope this is good news for a few of you; let's keep our fingers crossed, shall we? And, of course, cheers to all Linux developers. If someone with my card out there accomplishes some miracle with Linux Radeon drivers for 3.11 kernel, let me know, I'll jump in for 3.11 audio testing then, as well.

Before I upgrade to , I should deactivate the proprietary driver, right? Otherwise I'm likely to have issues? I have an nVidia Geforce 660ti
Think like a gun.
