Ubuntu 12.10 - nVidia driver problems

Question

I would like to use the built in query creation from method names, for example:

public Person findByFirstName(String firstName);

But I want to mark specific queries "for update" meaning to use:

public Person findByFirstNameForUpdate(String firstName);

Is there a way to make it work? I know I can create a new repository "PersonRepositoryForUpdate" but can I use the same repository?

Solution

I looked up your laptop, it seems to support the low-power Intel graphics as well as the high-power nvidia graphics.

You can confirm if your laptop has both intel and nvidia by running lspci | grep VGA

Try purging all nvidia stuff and then forcing the intel driver to be used? Afterwards, install nvidia-331 (or latest) and Bumblebee using Xorg-Edgers PPA.

Bumblebee is a program that allows you to invoke the nvidia driver only for applications of your choosing, otherwise the intel driver runs as default.

Which of the proprietary drivers did you try? nvidia-current?

[Blake]

I tried both nvidia-current and nvidia-current-updates

maybe make sure that nomodeset is not active in grub. You can start grub by pressing shift while booting. and then press e to edit the boot entry, and see that nomodeset is not in any line. (just a random guess) alternatively you could try one of the two experimental drivers (both are actual »releases« from nvidia. particularly the 310 brings many speed improvements.

I have tried nvidia 310 the latest driver, but it continually crashes ubuntu 12.10. So does nvidia-current. I have a nvidia 560 gtx ti video card with amd phenom II processor. The only way I can stop the crashes is to reinstall 12.04. Rob

@user91119 for your case I recommend reading askubuntu.com/questions/61396/… specially the part about Nvidia 313 and 319. I have the same video card so this will fix A LOT of issues you and I have. For Blake, please read also read the answer provided there. If you have tried everything in there then point it out here so I can go deeper. Also since you have a Laptop with a 630M I would suggest the 313 or 319 Nvidia drivers

thanks, I know I can do this but is there a way to use the automatic query that spring data gives?
