GPU Compatibility List

The purpose behind this page is to give a compatibility probability list, and to confirm these when possible.

I will break down manufacturers, then subsets. Audio, for the terms of this list, refers to digital audio from the card, typically HDMI audio. For further understanding of how audio currently works, please see the new audio scheme for possible resolution of audio issues without installing things you do not need. If your cards audio device shows up when typing "sudo aplay -l" (without quotes) then nothing more is required to install, only a configuration change is necessary, as detailed in the link.


nVidia

Series Model Video OOTB Audio OOTB Resolution
GT 4xx Yes No Upgrade Kernel to Natty
               Update ALSA
Change line 225 of SetupAudioVideo.sh CardDevice from 7 to 9
GTX 5xx No No Upgrade Kernel to Natty
Update ALSA
GT 6xx Yes No Upgrade Kernel to Natty
Update ALSA

Intel

Series Model Video OOTB Audio OOTB Resolution
Sandy Bridge All Yes Yes This should be working, out of the box. If something went wrong, then do the following:
Upgrade Kernel to Natty
Ivy Bridge All No No Update ALSA
Upgrade Kernel to Natty

Solutions

All solutions here can be copied/pasted, but assume you are root. Please begin sessions by typing "sudo -i" without quotes and enter your pass when prompted. It is recommended that you reboot after any of these solutions. /usr/pluto/bin/RebootWithAVWizard.sh is probably best for testing after applying solutions.

Add Intel Advanced Support

apt-add-repository ppa:kernel-ppa/ppa
apt-add-repository ppa:glasen/intel-driver
# For additional performance issues, the following may help
# apt-add-repository ppa:f-hackenberger/x220-intel-mesa
apt-get update

Add nVidia Current Driver Support

With the 304+ nvidia driver we recommend pulling down alsa .25 at the same time as prescribed here.

add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates
apt-get update
apt-get install -y nvidia-current

Add ALSA Backport .24 Support

apt-get install -yf linux-backports-modules-alsa-$(uname -r)

Add ALSA .25 Support

add-apt-repository ppa:team-iquik/alsa
apt-get update
apt-get install -y alsa-base
apt-get install -y alsa-utils

Upgrade Kernel to Natty

CurKernel="-generic"
if uname -r | grep "pae"; then CurKernel="-generic-pae"; fi
NewKernel="linux-image${CurKernel}-lts-backport-natty"
NewHeaders="linux-headers${CurKernel}-lts-backport-natty"
apt-get -yf install "$NewKernel"
apt-get -yf install "$NewHeaders"
apt-get update
apt-get -yf dist-upgrade

Upgrade Kernel to latest Oneiric

CurKernel="-generic"
if uname -r | grep "pae"; then CurKernel="-generic-pae"; fi
NewKernel="linux-image-3.0.0-26${CurKernel}"
NewHeaders="linux-headers-3.0.0-26${CurKernel}"
apt-get -yf install "$NewKernel"
apt-get -yf install "$NewHeaders"
apt-get update
apt-get -yf dist-upgrade
