Issues

  • Issue — Fn-F2 WLAN / Bluetooth switch does not work.
  • Issue — Fn-F5 and Fn-F6 for screen brightness do not work.
    • Add acpi_osi='!Windows 2012' to /etc/default/grub (see [1])
    → Fn-F5/F6 still do not work, but Fn-F2 does work now!!!
  • Issue — NVidia GT750M card not detected.
  • sudo apt-add-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install nvidia-331 nvidia-settings-331 nvidia-prime
    • Reboot. Multiple issues from apport (→ disabled now)
    • Nvidia card works with accelerated OpenGL, but keyboard is stuck to US layout, and Bluetooth is lost. Fonts are not rendered as usual it seems.
    • Purge xorg-edgers to see if we can revert back to previous situation:
    sudo ppa-purge xorg-edgers sudo apt-get autoremove nvidia-prime
  • IssueMinecraft — Graphics glitches, missing limbs on intel card.
    • (NOK) Changing settings: Graphics: Fast / Fancy, View Bobbing: ON / OFF: Advanced OpenGL: OFF/Fast/Fancy

    sudo apt-get install metacity metacity --replace && ./launch-minecraft-now && unity --replace &
    • (OK) Disable OptiFine
    • TODO — More solution from google query "optifine missing limbs" —
  • Issue — Image really dark
    • Use xrandr (see [8]):
    xrandr --output eDP1 --gamma 1.4:1.4:1.4 xrandr --verbose
    • Q? — How to make that settings permanent (setting is lost after quit / restart)?
      • I could make a custom script per seat, that is run right before launching minecraft.
  • To DoMinecraft — Do we get more FPS if we disable compiz (or any compositor, like metacity)?
  • To DoBluetooth — Bluetooth no longer working, even with nvidia disabled
  • sudo modprobe -r aht3k; sleep 1; sudo modprobe ath3k # Seems to work
