[GeForce 6100 / nForce 405] [nouveau] Major desktop graphics corruption

[John Garcia]

Es para una pc de uso en el hogar como respaldo a mis hijas que se encuentran estudiando.
Se a intentando cambiando las resoluciones y continua igual.
Pero si ingresamos con Gnome por la segunda opcion y al interior de esta ingresamos por la segunda opcion el trabaja muy bien no se distorsiona y mucho menos se bloquea o como podre hacer para que esta configuracion sea siempre la predeterminada.

It appears only the 'nouveau' open source driver supports this GPU. The official Nvidia drivers don't support it.

Your logs seem to suggest that the 'nouveau' driver is working but is connected via analog VGA, which might lead to some blurriness if not adjusted properly. Are you able to attach a photo of the problem?

I also note you're in recovery mode which you must be using as a workaround. If you just want to use that as the default then you can add "nomodeset" to /etc/default/grub here:

  GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash nomodeset"

and then run:

  sudo update-grub

Buenas tardes:

Anexo foto sin el cambio, realice el cambio en el grub funciono pero
solo ne da una resolucion de pantalla mientras que en modo recuperacion
me da dos resoluciones que puedo hacer para aplicar la segunda resolucion.

De antemano mis agradecimientos,

John Garcia

I think we are out of options. Since the open source Nvidia driver creates corruption (as it does for other people too), and the closed source Nvidia driver doesn't support this chip at all, I can only recommend buying a newer graphics card.
