[ SOLVED ] Update drivers after CM + CPU + CG change !!

Hello,
my son having upgraded his PC, I got his old stuff back. : D
So I switched from a config based on

 ASRock AliveXFire-eSATA2 motherboard
AMD Phenom ™ processors
MSI GeForce GTX 660 N660 TF 2GD5 / OC graphics card 

at

ASRock B85M-HDS motherboard
Intel® i5 processors
ASUS GeForce TURBO-GTX1060-6G graphics 

To my astonishment the PC restarted well on the Intel card integrated into the motherboard but with a resolution of 640 X 480 sad

TV connected to HDMI displays a resolution of 1360 X 768 and can go up to 1920 X 1080 smile.

I don’t know how to install, uninstall, modify or configure drivers on Ubuntu and since I’ve had quite a bit of help in the past on this forum, I’m hoping to find someone who will help me again this time.

Thanks already to those who have had the patience to read me to the end.

Val.

Bonjour,
mon fils ayant upgradé sons PC, j’ai récupéré ses vieilleries. big_smile
Je suis donc passé d’une config à base de

 Carte mère ASRock AliveXFire-eSATA2
Processeurs AMD Phenom™
Carte graphique MSI GeForce GTX 660 N660 TF 2GD5/OC 

à

 Carte mère ASRock  B85M-HDS
processeurs Intel® i5
Carte graphique ASUS GeForce TURBO-GTX1060-6G 

À mon grand étonnement le PC a bien redémarré sur la carte Intel intégrée à la carte mère mais avec une résolution de 640 X 480 sad,
la télé branchée en HDMI affiche une résolution de 1360 X 768 et peut aller jusqu’à 1920 X 1080 smile.

je ne sais pas installer, désinstaller, modifier ou configurer les pilotes sur Ubuntu et comme J’ai eu pas mal d’aide par le passé sur ce forum, j’espère trouver quelqu’un qui voudra bien m’aider encore cette fois.

Merci déjà à ce qui ont eu la patience de me lire jusqu’au bout.

Val.

Greetings to you, and welcome back!

As far as I know, you have 2 ways to proceed: (1) update & upgrade your existing Ubuntu system incrementally to current release level (for example from 16.04.* to 20.04.*), or (2) built a fresh system by wiping/deleting the old partition(s)/volume(s) -- entirely your decision to make.

In my experience, if you decide to go with option (1), there's no predicting how this path will end and if you will end up having a "stable", reliable system. I know, this is not the answer you were hoping for, but there a number of technical reasons for my opinion that I shouldn't bore you with.

However, If you decide on option (2), your chances of installing a stable, reliable system are pretty good and I'd be glad to work through this refurbishing project with you ...

In  any event, it would be helpful to see what your system looks like right now. I suggest you run the follwing command in a terminal ...

inxi -Fxzi

and then copy/paste the command's output into your next reply. Thanks.

Cheers, m4a

Thank you for your answer, the problem of the intel card is solved, I now have the correct resolutions on my VGA-1 screen and on the HDMI-2 socket of the TV.

Everything else seems to be working fine.

I just have to run a script on startup.

#!/bin/sh
xrandr --newmode "1680x1050_60.00"  146.25  1680 1784 1960 2240  1050 1053 1059 1089 -hsync +vsync
xrandr --addmode VGA-1 1680x1050_60.00
xrandr -s 1680x1050_60.00
xrandr --output HDMI-2 --pos 1680x0 --mode 1360x768 --rate 60

All that remains is to remove the old NVIDIA drivers and install the ASUS GeForce TURBO-GTX1060-6G card.

Thank you again for your help.

Val.

Merci pour ta réponse, le problème de la carte intel est réglé, j'ai maintenant les bonnes résolutions sur mon écran VGA-1 et sur la prise HDMI-2 de la TV.

Tout le reste a l'air de fonctionner correctement.

j'e dois simplement exécuter un script au démarrage.

#!/bin/sh
xrandr --newmode "1680x1050_60.00"  146.25  1680 1784 1960 2240  1050 1053 1059 1089 -hsync +vsync
xrandr --addmode VGA-1 1680x1050_60.00
xrandr -s 1680x1050_60.00
xrandr --output HDMI-2 --pos 1680x0 --mode 1360x768 --rate 60

Il ne reste plus qu'a supprimer les anciens drivers NVIDIA et installer la carte ASUS GeForce TURBO-GTX1060-6G .

Encore merci pour ton aide.

Val.

Re: [ SOLVED ] Update drivers after CM + CPU + CG change !!

Fixed an issue where the graphics card's power plug was loose and the card was not receiving constant power.

Problème résolue, la fiche d'alimentation de la carte graphique avait un peut de jeu et la carte n’était pas alimentée constamment.
