Two problems one thread SMB and XORG server

32dave · March 13, 2018 at 2:59 PM

Ok noobie here I understand linux but I'm not too good with command line, With that being said I tried to install this on a ASUS P5N-EM HDMI but when it boots it says XORG server failed and just stays at the command screen and won't go any farther so I tried installing on a HP P2-1033w and it works fine but I cannot connect to my Windows Homer Server 2011 (If I put the network location in manually it says invalid argument) my Android boxes connect my other windows machine connects even my phone is there something that I need to install or am I missing something. I have read various threads and posts and tried a few fixes but nothing works any help would be great.Thanks,Dave

P.S I am using DD-WRT x64 for a router if that matters

The board is too old, nvidia removed support for that board at his drivers.

Luckily there is an build with the old drivers that should work for you.

Thanks that fixed the video but now no sound guess I should find another board lol and it doesn't see the server as well

That could be due the Samba change, you may switch to Samba 2 or 3 at your "Server" or force SMB1 (there are several threads about this)

about the sound issue no idea tbh

I will try that I think the sound issue could be because I use the hdmi instead of the vga connection and of course there are no Nvidia Linux drivers for the board

I figured out the smb problem I was using the guest account with no password so I tried under my login and it worked so I guess the problem was no password
