I am running an Acer desktop with Ubuntu 10.04. I tried to install a PNY GeForce 8500GT HDMI Graphics card and neither HDMI or standard monitor works. There is power to the fan on the card. I remove the card,plug the monitor back in to mobo and works fine. Is there a motherboard jumper to disable on onboard graphics or a command in terminal I can use?

There is not any selections in the Bios- Advanced Southbridge Configuration Primary Graphics Adapter to set to PCIE.PCIIGP, nor to Disable IGP (Integrated / On Board Graphics) I also tried the other way you suggested, boot with card, load drivers on boot. Nothing but card fan running on high speed. The driver disk that came with the card are windows drivers, Can I install them with ndiswrapper? I used that utility/tool to get my wife's Dell Netbook WIFI going after I installed Ubuntu Remix. Or do you know how to get the.ini file from an.exe driver. Thanks For Taking The Time, Sam. Graphics drivers for your card are freely available from the Ubuntu repos, one does not use ndiswrapper to install them.
I have an Asus motherboard that also doesn't have bios settings for disabling the on-board graphics card, it does the reconfiguration automatically. Did you try to use the external graphics card in another computer? That's one thing I would try, because from the sound of it, you might have a hardware problem.
Either with the external card, or with the motherboard's recognition of the external card. When the external card is installed, and the monitor is plugged in to the on-board port, does your monitor function? It should, unless the external card is preventing it from working, and if that's the case, it would point to a problem with the external card. Have you tried another external card in the same slot? If a second card does not work, it may point to a problem with the motherboard. All Linux distros come with default graphics drivers, if your not getting video from those, adding drivers to the mix won't help. You should check out the hardware first before adding problems to your OS install.
HARDWARE OVERVIEW: Mobo: Gigabyte w/ on-board graphics (up to 256MB shared memory) Proc: AMD Athlon 64 x2 Mem: 8GB DDR2 PCI-E: EV3A 1GB DDR2 NVIDIA e-GeForce 8500GT Dual Display: Dell 17' (1280x1024) & Acer 22' (1600x1200) Dual-boot: Win 7 Prof 64 / Ubuntu Desktop 64 11.10 DESIRED RESULT: Dell 17' fed video by on-board graphics Acer 22' fed video by PCI-E card ISSUE: - I cannot get video out from the PCI-E card, when booted into Ubuntu 11.10, and cannot take full advantage of graphic capabilities of displays when using only on-board controller for both displays. With only 256MB on-board graphics, virtual machines can only be allocated max of 128MB video memory, which means that their operating windows are almost ineffectually small. I am too much of a Newbie to attempt to add.run or.bin drivers via terminal (its not the 'trying' that worries me.its the 'fixing' if something goes wrong) - I've only had 5 scattered months of employment since April of 2009, so buying hardware is not an option. I need to make the hardware I have work, if at all possible.
ATTEMPTS TO CORRECT: - Using System Settings / Additional Drivers, went down the entire list, one-by-one, restarting and then testing after each = NO CHANGE - Downloaded Linux 64-bit GeForce 8500GT-specific drivers from NVIDIA's website + UNABLE TO INSTALL AFTER DOWNLOADING - Desired results above are automatically achieved when booted into Windows 7 partition, so I know the graphics card and PCI-E slot are functional. Thanks for the reply,.
Apparently, my mobo is high-end enough that i don't even have to manually choose. It automatically allows both onboard and pci to work simultaneously. However, bios does have an option to switch between the two as a choice of which one is initialized first.
As it happens, i tried changing the 1st-init from onboard to pci and suddenly Ubuntu was running on the pci. But then it wouldn't put out to the onboard.
So i switched the bios back to 1st-init = onboard, and by fluke forgot to disconnect the 22' display from the pci card and badabing-bam-boom, both video outputs are now working exactly as I'd originally hoped they would. I'm guessing that I probably would have had no problem at all if the pci had been in the box when I did the initial Ubuntu install.but somehow switching the bios settings back and forth 'woke up' something in Ubuntu so that it now sees the card. Just one of life's little head-scratching scenarios, but as long as it works, i don't care.
I am hereby re-opening this case. There is something definitely amiss with my ubuntu install.

Today, i can only get ubuntu to send video through the pci card if i have 'init pci 1st' enabled in bios. But then it sends video ONLY through the pci card. Please don't anyone try telling me though, that i am strictly limited to an 'either-or' scenario, because all day yesterday ubuntu sent digital video from the onboard to the dell 17' while simultaneously feeding video to the acer 22' via pci digital. (i'm sorry, d4m1r. No offense is intended) also, windows 7 has absolutely no issues whatsoever auto detecting and using both video sources simultaneously.
So i know its not a hardware issue. I may still only be a beginner with linux, and a total newb with ubuntu, but with 20 years tech experience behind me i do know how to troubleshoot. What i need to know is. Do i need to do a clean reinstall of ubuntu, with the pci card installed from the get-go? If not, is there someone who can walk me through baby-steps of using the command line to try to fix this issue?
That's a good question, gord. I could do that. But at this point its become a matter of principle.
If there's no good reason that something that should work but doesn't, then the don quixote just can't resist the urge to charge the windmill. Lol then there's always the possibility that solving this conundrum may present an opportunity to learn some practical command line tool(s) and finally, there's a minor annoyance in that the system to defaults to the dvi port as the primary and the vga as secondary. Which doesn't mesh smoothly with my desire to have the smaller display on my left and the larger on m,y right but as i say. That's just a minor annoyance that i can workaround via display settings.the main reason is that if something is supposed to work, i'm just anal retentive and ocd enough to let it bug the sh.t out of me when it doesn't.
I recently built a Linux Box running Ubuntu and one of the parts I used as stand in before I could get my actually good graphics card was a Ge Force 8500 GT that I pulled out of an old HP desktop. I keep trying to get the drivers for it but the driver install Window just stops responding then I have to force quit it. Does anyone know how to fix this? Do I need to just wait for the good card to come and hopefully it's drivers will work? In case it matters here are my system specs: CPU: AMD FX 6300 GPU: Ge Force 8500 GT Motherboard: AsRock 970 Pro3 RAM: 8GB of 2400mhz G.Skill Ripjaws X Series Memory P.S. Sorry if this is the wrong Category, Steam OS is just the closest thing to Ubuntu 'Open Source Software' forum for any Linux-based OS -Moderator.

Note that many Linux distributions provide their own packages of the NVIDIA Linux Graphics Driver in the distribution's native package management format.

This may interact better with the rest of your distribution's framework, and you may want to use this rather than NVIDIA's official package. Also note that SuSE users should read the SuSE NVIDIA Installer before downloading the driver. Installation instructions: Once you have downloaded the driver, change to the directory containing the driver package and install the driver by running, as root, sh./NVIDIA-Linux-x8664-340.32.run One of the last installation steps will offer to update your X configuration file. Either accept that offer, edit your X configuration file manually so that the NVIDIA X driver will be used, or run nvidia-xconfig Note that the list of supported GPU products is provided to indicate which GPUs are supported by a particular driver version. Some designs incorporating supported GPUs may not be compatible with the NVIDIA Linux driver: in particular, notebook and all-in-one desktop designs with switchable (hybrid) or Optimus graphics will not work if means to disable the integrated graphics in hardware are not available. Hardware designs will vary from manufacturer to manufacturer, so please consult with a system's manufacturer to determine whether that particular system is compatible.
