DVI also supports analog video output which makes it backward compatible (using an adapter) with the VGA interface. DESCRIPTION The VGA device allows configuration of a graphics controller on a PC. Each HP dv7 comes with a 17.3-inch glossy or anti-glare widescreen with light-emitting diode backlight, The largeness and technology of the screen, supported by the aforementioned AMD Radeon HD card, is designed for optimal display of HD video and graphics. The AV Switcher presents the audio on the Cat5 Video Router as dual RCAs for the stereo pair. A quad-speaker system that is Dolby Atmos-enabled also means that, for a laptop, the levels of audio it is capable of are remarkable and the battery life on the system, too, just runs and runs (10.7 hours of video playback). If this is selected, the system immediately reboots. Normally you would not be doing anything remotely as complex as trying to copy one UEFI-booting system’s hard drive contents over to another system with completely different hardware and a radically different partitioning layout, so the complexities involved are out of scope of this report.

Update 2017jan25: since accidentally upgrading to 375.26 in order to test out opencl, it appears that 4.8.0 (standard debian/testing kernel) and 4.8.11 work perfectly well. A further test will be carried out, pausing and issuing “killall -STOP vlc” then letting the laptop suspend automatically. It was necessary to exit vlc and restart it, in order to have the sound operational again. Update: letting the laptop suspend to RAM automatically worked fine, whilst “optirun vlc” was open after a film had stopped playing. 2, “optirun glxinfo” worked perfectly. Bear in mind that it worked perfectly under the 3.16 kernel. That failed completely. However, before giving up on the 3.16 kernel, because it was not realised that this hardware is an “Optimus” setup, where the NVidia GTX 1060 GPU is acting as a “co-processor” to the Intel HD Graphics which is the hardware responsible for doing the actual displaying, the NVidia proprietary drivers (375.20 at the time of writing) were downloaded, compiled and installed.
3.16 kernel showed no signs of a driver, and, more worryingly, if run twice resulted in the entire machine hanging irrevocably, necessitating a power-cycle. Further tests, such as “optirun glxgears” showed the limitations of this experimental system (fvwm2 switches off windows when they’re moved, to a wireframe), as the glxgears froze when optirun reported: primus: warning: dropping a frame to avoid deadlock and glxgears remained frozen and required termination. That’s when, after a bit of research, I discovered “bumblbeed” (apt-get install bumblebeed) and “optirun” and bbswitch (apt-get install bbswitch-dkms), all of which amazingly appear to have been around for quite some time. I noticed that starting xorg with the bumblebeed daemon running would guarantee a crash, which I tracked down to xorg doing a scan of the PCIe bus and trying to do nothing more than read the pcie config device node. The only downside is that when the keyboard is slid down it becomes a little difficult to use the trackpad because of the tilt.
This can easily be demonstrated by turning the screen white (display a white image), switching off the room lights, setting the brightness down low, getting a piece of cardboard and poking a small hole in it, then, whilst your eyes are fixed firmly forwards, unmoving, wave the cardboard directly across the screen. You will know that you are getting a great computer although you can always add other capabilities to it. A retail acquired gaming Computer will usually have a very substantial price tag this is something that the merchants can’t stay clear of as they have overheads. There are three things to consider when buying a gaming mouse: design, features and price. The initial boot did not go well, because the initrd and /etc/fstab and many other things were all set up for the older system. Fortunately, there turns out to be a way to reset the hardware back to sane defaults: apt-get install grub-efi Once this is installed, a new option appears on the grub menu at boot time. Whilst it is not strictly necessary to use grub-efi (certainly selecting “Windows 7 Boot defaults” seems to do the trick) it is most welcome to not be forced to use UEFI boot at all, and thus to be able to set up and use simple recovery boot media again.
