Hi, I recently installed debain squeeze on Hewlet Packard Pavillion h8-1280jp, which has a ATI Radeon HD 7450 graphic card. However, the resolution of the monitor is limited to 1280 x 1024, and I cannot get any higher resolution.
I have xserver-xorg-video-ati, xserver-xorg-video-radeon, and xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd installed. $lspci | grep VGA 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Device 677b is the response to lspci. I checked the log file /var/log/Xorg.0.log, and it seems that the system does not recognize my graphic card, and fall back on vesa driver. I would like to ask what is the best option I should take? Should I install a newer kernel from the backports? Should I try propriety driver? But using it makes me a little bit nervous, because I fear that it might cause some trouble in the future. I have no experience of building a kernel, and I would like to avoid it if possible. I would like to have a stable system that I can rely on. I would appreciate any suggestion to improve this situation. Thank you. Han Soo -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
