Does the machine boot correctly with Debian kernels? Yes, the machine boots correctly, but it does not change to a high resolution terminal (font), as it does in Ubuntu, and when X starts it is supports neither xv video output (for scaling videos) nor 3D acceleration (glxinfo gives me "OpenGL renderer string: Software Rasterizer"). > > pn firmware-linux-nonfree 0.34 > > Hmm, so the Radeon firmware is not installed?
