Squeeze does not 'need' a xorg.conf file. Try without and look in /var/log/Xorg.0.log for error messages. I think 'ati' is replaced by'radeon', Anyway autoconfiguring of X on boot will figure it out or tell you about failures. ATI card support for older cards may be an issue. I have one that stopped working when upgrading from etch to lenny. I too use the 'vesa' driver on an old laptop, The new vesa is better than I remember the old vesa working. -- Peace, Greg -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
