I guess this is a duplicate of http://bugs.debian.org/508999, because I reported this for one of the last but one round of BWPCs (back when they were HP), too. With the patch in http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=60;filename=radeon-diff;att=1;bug=508999 those work for me. (At least frequencies work. Some other things are complaining about those Xpress 200 cards, but with disabling enough acceleration it works). > Interestingly, the driver reports that a LVDS type of connector is in use, > though this is a desktop > (HP dc5750 Microtower), not a laptop, and the monitor is connected via DVI, > not LVDS. The experimental version is better in naming this, sadly in my experience adds some other problems instead, though. Hochachtungsvoll, Bernhard R.
