I'm trying to update my graphics card. Info:

   description: VGA compatible controller

   product: 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller

   vendor: Intel Corporation

   physical id: 2

   bus info: pci@0000:00:02.0

   version: 09

   width: 64 bits

   clock: 33MHz

   capabilities: vga_controller bus_master cap_list rom

   configuration: driver=i915 latency=0

I tried doing this in two ways:

1 . Command Line:

First add repository:

 sudo add-apt-repository ppa:glasen/intel-driver

Second, update:

sudo apt-get update

This updates everything, then eventually I get a problem:

W: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/glasen/intel-driver/ubuntu/dists/trusty/main/binary-amd64/Packages  404  Not Found



W: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/glasen/intel-driver/ubuntu/dists/trusty/main/binary-i386/Packages  404  Not Found



E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

2 . Intel(R) Graphics Installer for Linux:

I downloaded it from this site

Then ran the program, and let it do it's thing. Eventually I got this error:

W:GPG error: https://download.01.org trusty InRelease: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY A902DDA375E52366, W:Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/glasen/intel-driver/ubuntu/dists/trusty/main/binary-amd64/Packages  404  Not Found

, W:Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/glasen/intel-driver/ubuntu/dists/trusty/main/binary-i386/Packages  404  Not Found

, E:Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

Both error look the same, but I don't quite understand it.

How do I upgrade my graphics card driver?

first get rid of the ppa as it's not needed and that's what's causing your problems

sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/glasen-intel-driver-saucy.list

To securely add the keys execute these commands

GET https://download.01.org/gfx/RPM-GPG-KEY-ilg | gpg --import

gpg --check-sigs --fingerprint 75E52366

gpg --keyserver pgpkeys.mit.edu --recv-key 7CB0FA13

gpg -a --export 75E52366 | sudo apt-key add -

Repeat for second key

GET https://download.01.org/gfx/RPM-GPG-KEY-ilg-2 | gpg --import

gpg --check-sigs --fingerprint 2F4AAA66

gpg --keyserver pgpkeys.mit.edu --recv-key 144BD458

gpg -a --export 2F4AAA66 | sudo apt-key add -

more info on adding keys can be found here http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/securing-debian-howto/ch7.en.html#s-deb-pack-sign

now execute these commands to add intel download installer for 14.04 64 bit

cd && wget https://download.01.org/gfx/ubuntu/14.04/main/pool/main/i/intel-linux-graphics-installer/intel-linux-graphics-installer_1.0.5-0intel1_amd64.deb

sudo apt-get update 

sudo apt-get install gdebi

sudo gdebi intel-linux-graphics-installer_1.0.5-0intel1_amd64.deb

Now to run intel graphics installer run the following command in an open terminal

intel-linux-graphics-installer

Follow the instructions provided by the intel installer GUI. Save any unsaved work you may have and reboot for the changes to take effect.
