For the life of me I cannot seem to make the integrated Intel card work properly.
I own an HP Pavillion DV7 with and AMD Radeon HD 6730M/6770M/7690M XT (according to lspci) and integrated Intel graphics card running an Ubuntu 14.04 installation.
I don't care for discreet graphics card: I just want the Intel card working so the cooling fan shuts de f*** up.
The thing is I had this system working properly before but since last fglrx-updates installation Intel card won't work properly (AMD works fine but raises the temp).
glxinfo says "Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual or fbconfig" when switching to Intel through AMD control panel.
Anyone knows what can I do? Is there a way to disable the AMD card without installing fglrx?
Thanks in advance.
Ps: What a mess is this AMD/Intel/Ubuntu thing...
UPDATE with more info:
grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log shows this (when starting with Intel card enabled):
(II) LoadModule: "glx"
[ 3.803] (II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so
[ 3.805] (II) Module glx: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
[ 3.805] compiled for 1.14.3, module version = 1.0.0
[ 3.805] ABI class: X.Org Server Extension, version 7.0
[ 3.805] (EE) module ABI major version (7) doesn't match the server's version (8)
[ 3.805] (II) UnloadModule: "glx"
[ 3.805] (II) Unloading glx
[ 3.805] (EE) Failed to load module "glx" (module requirement mismatch, 0)
Any clues? Can't seem to find the exact problem when I google it...
UPDATE. This solved my problem:
Purge fglrx. Then (and this was the important part for me):
sudo apt-get install --reinstall xserver-xorg-core
Then installing fglrx again.
Why reinstall xserver-xorg-core? Because this is the package that contains the file /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so.
Don't know what happened on the first place but this is what worked for me.
