Dear all
I just bought myself a new laptop, a fine mf: Samsung x22
My plan was to use Kubuntu 7.04 alone on my new laptop, as I did on my old one. But unfortunatly I have had issues with graphics ever since I got the machine last monday, the 8 th of october.
I have surfed the net and found help from a lot of sites that discuss this well-known issue. But unfortunatly no-one resolved the problem for my machine.
Yesterday I installed kubuntu 7.10 in hope that these issues would have been resolved. But they are not resolved.
Most recently I tried the guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI but it doesn't work. It says that my hardware doesn't need restricted drivers when I use:
KMenu → System Settings → Advanced → Restricted Drivers and select "ATI accelerated graphics driver"
I have also tried: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubu...allation_Guide where there is a discription of manual installation. This doesn't work; it doesn't recognize --buildpkg.
Furthermore I have issues with my sound; When I mute using the Fn-keys the sound doesn't mute and when I change the volume the Fn-way I can only alter the volume by 11 %?
Additional the sound does not mute from speakers when I plug in my earplugs? Which is really bothering me.
It comes with
ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2400
and
Realtek High Definition Audio
I hope you guys can help me
Thank you
