I prefer to set the system once and do not touch it in ~2 years :) I used to use unstable, but that was long time ago . > Are you sure about that? Did you try? What does apt-cache show xserver- > xorg-video-radeon give for the backported one? Well... I tried and it completely messed up my system. I also had to upgrade the kernel to use the new xserver and it was impossible to run again the Xserver. Then I reinstalled from scratch the system and tried the propietary drivers from the repositories (also the one in backports) and no luck. At the end I downloaded Catalyst from AMD's webpage and it worked. I also had to install the linux-firmware-nonfree from the backports to have support for the HD6500 support in the kernel. I will install Wheezy with the FOSS drivers when it will be stable ;) Tanks, Dan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
