Intel Graphic 945 driver for ubuntu 12.04 lts

I'm new to the forum, and Ubuntu as well. i have installed the Ubuntu 12.04 LTS along with the windows 7, the installation went fine. but the problem is i cannot install my graphic driver. I have Intel 945.I searched in the site also and found that its driver is obsolete so anyone please help me to install my graphic driver.

Thank in advance.


Solution 1:

Drop into your terminal and issue the following commands;

 sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates

 sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel 

Now you need to create a config file;

sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf

Then paste this into the file;

Section "Device" 
Identifier "Card0" 
Driver "intel" 
Option "AccelMethod" "sna" 
EndSection 

Save the file and give your machine a reboot. You should now have the correct driver installed.
