Ok so for anyone with "GIGABYTE GA-970A-DS3" I have done alot of testing and research. The best config I found to get USB3 working is this:
Edit Grub config:
sudo nano /etc/default/grub
Edit the line that looks like this:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"
If your running a x64 bit Ubuntu or other Linux and find USB transfers hang at the end apply this fix:
echo $((16*1024*1024)) > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_background_bytes
echo $((48*1024*1024)) > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_bytes
I suggest you edit your /etc/rc.local file to make this change persistant across reboots.
sudo nano /etc/rc.local
If you run VMware Workstation 11 or above you may encounter high CPU usage from process khugepaged on Ubuntu 15.04+
The fix is to disable transparent hugepages. It seems Ubuntu has it enabled by default.
You can check the current status on your system by running:
cat /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled
cat /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag
First things first you need to have a new ish bluetooth adapter I have found in my testing.
It may need to be bluetooth 4 compatible I am not sure but my laptop and phone worked whereas my desktop using a £1 dongle did not.
Once you get a successful pair you may notice the controller still has a blinking light. If this is the case see below.
Install sysfsutils
sudo apt-get install sysfsutils
If you get this error when executing the binary via terminal:
./epsxe_x64: error while loading shared libraries: libSDL_ttf-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Fix:
sudo apt-get install libsdl-ttf2.0-0Tested and works on Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS.
Other deps were already met if not you may need to grab them too:
If you have a Nvidia graphics card and have the Nvidia proprietary dirver installed and notice that it wont detect monitor information over DVI then try apply this:
First run nvidia-xconfig in a terminal to generate the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file.
Then you need to lookup your monitors specifications to find its Horizontal and Vertical refresh rates.
The edit the xorg config like so:
sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
