Ok have installed Liquorix on 3 laptops each with different Intel GPU's. All below issues are fixed !!!

1 - Black stripes gone

2 - crashed cinnamon if I opened chromium.

3 Mate menu back ground would be very very dark instead of default silver




We're cooking now

Indeed it does

I will post your link at the top of page for others and try it out on the other Intel GPU's I have and post results in here.

Tried to install liquorix but have had no luck either finding the info i need to find the correct version / headers etc. So as yet not got it to work ....some more help would be nice :mrgreen: Still think its a shame there seems to be a lack of feedback from the Cinnamon ( yes I made an official bug...

I'm seeing update after update but nothing changes my problem.
This is how my screen looks.
I have Chromium / firefox and image viewer open.
As you can see it also effects the back ground and icons.

Still have not found any new info .... :( I have the idea it maybe a cinnamon issue since I have another laptop with an Intel GPU and that keeps crashing. Would love it if someone reacted to this problem even if it's just a suggestion of a bug report to someone some where ! AN UPDATE of mint and cin...

Ok I after hours of trying to find out anything about this GPU and any driver issues I found this command inxi -AGx which produced this info Graphics: Card: Intel Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller bus-ID: 00:02.0 Display Server: X.Org 1.16.4 drivers: intel (unloaded: fbdev,vesa) Re...

Disabling splash screen in grub has no effect.
As does reinstalling Plymouth.
I guess this is a new problem ?

Add va-driver-all to the list of installed packages (fixes black bands with Intel GPUs) Didn't fix it. I looked on the forum before i made his post but could not find anything that address the issue yet.. Can some one post a ink if you know ? Didn't try to disable splash screen yet as I don't know ...

OK did a full wipe ( all hidden maps) except for my own files on HOME and re install the last iso 64 bit. Did the update . DDM recommends a different graphics driver but not going to try it as yet as last time it caused a problem. I do not have sound alerts "out of the box" not in live mod...

Code: Select all

sudo aticonfig --adapter=all --initial -f

I would like to know if the above command would also work on a single gpu ATI card (it would make adapting DDM for hybrid cards a lot easier).

NO it didn't

Thx wavespot I am an avid fan of linux and Mint. And have been using it since Mint 3.

PC one A:- Graphics. I jumped at the chance to use Cinnamon on my main/multimedia PC when it came out. Tried to use the rolling concept and just went for Update 6 and followed instructions.

I'm using the last distro of LMDE 64 Cinnamon After install I had the alert sounds but during updates they disappeared then reappeared now it's all grayed out again. It's not a mixer issue as I have multiple sound devices and use pavucontrol to route all my signals. It works well accept the 5.1 outp...
