nvidia GeForce4 Ti4200Go latest video bios from Dell (6.14.10.6742, A06)

Do you have the nouveau mesa/dri/opengl driver installed?

If so, it would be nice to rule that out as the problem.

Maybe a concurrent operations display dialog + browse file system?

When xserver crashes, I sometimes get a popup on restart after killing it
stating:
"The system is running in low-graphics mode: Your screen, graphic card, and
input device settings could not be detected correctly. You need to configure
these yourself."
Then, no mouse keybord available I need to power down to reboot.

Hi Martin
Thank you for your reply
I find this:
sudo dpkg -s mesa-utils
Package: mesa-utils
Status: install ok installed
Priority: optional
Section: x11
Installed-Size: 132
Maintainer: Ubuntu X-SWAT <ubuntu-x-nLRlyDuq1AZFpShjVBNYrg@public.gmane.org>
Architecture: i386
Source: mesa-demos
Version: 8.0.1+git20110129+d8f7d6b-0ubuntu2
Replaces: xbase-clients (<< 6.8.2-38)
Depends: libc6 (>= 2.4), libgl1-mesa-glx | libgl1, libx11-6
Description: Miscellaneous Mesa GL utilities
 This package provides several basic GL utilities built by Mesa, including
 glxinfo and glxgears.

I'm not very good english speaking, so please, how could I "rule that"? Adding
key words to the bug report?

@Martin
I forgot to say I stick using Gnome classic (no-effects) that's why I posted
here in xorg instead of mesa. Should I move the bug?

There is an easy way to check (you have to run this from Xorg), that is to run
"glxinfo":

This line (or something like it) "OpenGL renderer string: Software Rasterizer"
means you don't have the nouveau opengl driver installed, but if it lists
something other than software rasterizer you may have it installed.

I'm guessing mesa-utils is not the driver package.

To "rule out a problem" means "to check something is not the problem" in this
case.

Hi Maarteen
Thank you for spending time with me. Hope this is not waste.
Here the line I read from glxinfo > glxinfo.txt:
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI nv28 x86/MMX/SSE2

Would you advise me to uninstall something. If you need to read the full file,
please tell me, I'll attach if (xserver hanged just after issueing the command
and Ctrl+Alt+PrtScn+K won't revive it)

Good night gentlemen
Just a little more comment to add 2 other symtoms. Not sure if they are
usefull: clicking the drop-lists is this very page olso hangs the xserver, and
about the double cursor in the title, in fact it is not truely a double well
drawn clean double cursors, instead it is badly drawn and blury, and if you
know the grid (I learnt today it is the name of this thing) that displays over
the background picture of the default ubuntu loging screen (the greeting screen
is the name I beleive), so each point of the grid is doubled, about 1mm on the
right (or left, I can't know), like the phantom/echo on old tv with poor signal
before DVB. I'll post a photography of the current cursor just in a few
minutes...

When I opened the cursor photo, metacity repported an error.
In fact on login, the grid over the flat purple color is not doubled
immediately; it turns doubled at the same time the artwork shiny picture
overrides the flat purple. Now I switch to win to post the photo, and maybe a
small video to show what happens on login.;;

+1

Ubuntu 8.04 supported this card with the nv driver. Nouveau has never, to the
best of my knowlege, supported this card. We could really use nouveau support,
as I have read that nvidia is considering ending support for this and all
nvidia-96 cards. I have the same pointer and desktop graphics corruption in
Ubuntu 12.04.

I am previewing the next release of Slackware, on a similar D800, and am seeing
even worse corruption than your screenshots indicate.

The problem is, the current version of Xorg will no long work with the
proprietary nvidia driver (Nvidia has not updated their legacy driver);

The "nv" driver segfaults (I have not been able to figure out why: this is
using a configuration that used to be fine).

The nouveau driver is all that will load in 1920x1200 now, and the graphics are
too corrupted to be used.

I cannot find a way to get 1920x1200, even unaccelerated, with an nv28 card
now.

Marking this as a duplicate of the bug which has more up-to-date information.
Description seems identical. Feel free to undup it if I got it wrong.
