The last post in this thread will probably solve the issue for the OP (these
are instructions regarding compilation of SIS driver from source):

sudo apt-get install build-essential xorg-dev xutils-dev automake libtool
cd ~/ #or whatever
It's not just missing from Ubuntu but from Debian too starting with Debian 8
(Jessie.)
And that is why people using SIS graphics cannot upgrade to Debian Jessie, as
reported for instance in this post:

I thank you again Magic Banana.
The problem:
I was concerned about adequate space for the upcoming Trisquel 9. When I saw
that Trisquel doubled in size from version 7 to version 8, I was concerned
that if it doubled in size again (with version 9) it would take up at least
80 percent of

That screenshot was very helpful. This helps to confirm that it is indeed not
a kernel problem but with X.
BuckO'Bryan: I'm going to do some speculation here which, if true, will help
to confirm what I am thinking. You said before that things worked fine with
Debian. Am I correct in

The issue might be that the package xserver-xorg-video-sis is missing in the
Ubuntu release on which Trisquel 8 is based (16.04) but appears in the Ubuntu
release on which Trisquel 7 is based (14.04) as you can see here:

I didn't declare that I was going to do anything. I only said that stalling
in this way is not really helping and a proper solution is needed.

I don't "despise" anyone. But this
The last line of lspci's output confirms what you wrote: your computer has a
rather uncommon SiS video card. It would therefore not be surprising if
Trisquel's kernel configuration mistakenly does not fully support the card
and that you are the first one to face the problem. Again, I would
Thank you too! Right after writing my previous reply, checked Wikepedia &
found that out. I hadn't suspected it was just a simple cmd! Anyway, tried
it. And a screenshot of the result is attached. Hope all above info enables
someone to tell me how to get that monitor recognized &
'lspci' is a terminal command. Type it in terminal and hit enter. It'll tell
you what the PCI cards are.

You might do a search for the same issue with Ubuntu 16.04, on which
Trisquel 8 is based. I see a few threads that suggest different
solutions, but without access to an Android phone I can't try any of
them.
I didn't say "begging", but yes, that's really all that's going on. Using
stronger words to describe what you're doing doesn't change that. This is a
desparate, pleading tone. A stronger tone would be to threaten to vote them
out of office.
But even a stronger tone isn't going to make it
It seems I can use the MTP protocol and mount phone storage to trisquel only
when the phone is in the TWRP recovery mode which is ok, at least it works.
Just curious why it can't connect when it's booted into the Android OS.

Begging? I just told them that if they give way our freedom of
expression just to please a lobby they would prove themselves to be a fraud.

Hi, I am using Trisquel Mini on an X200 Tablet. How can I use the
touchscreen? Do I need to install or configure some software to do so? I
believe the X200 Tablet uses a Wacom device. Thanks.
Thanks! It has worked!
Though I tried resetting gsettings key which didn't work:
gsettings reset org.mate.panel default-layout
I don't think it's just the lobbyists. There's a deeper problem: the general
population doesn't care, and representatives and corporations know this. So
how do we get the general population (not just a sizable, scattered minority)
to care about these issues permanently (rather than for the
Thank you both, Magic B and jxself! I didn't just take heed the first time,
because I "thought" points I mentioned lead to "other"solutions. Now that
you have both commented, I just remembered seeing some Warning info about

Like Magic says it's probably not the monitor itself. lspci should say
something about the graphics hardware on the motherboard. This is important
information to know.
I doubt the problem is with the monitor but rather with the video card. The
kernel is responsible for the abstraction of the hardware. Trying a newer
kernel is easy and may solve your problem. After all, it could be related to
change in Trisquel's configuration of the kernel, a change
There were lobbyists begging our representatives for years to take net
neutrality away. The source of the problem seems to be: our representatives
end up acting in the interest of those can pay lobbyists (mainly companies)
and not in the public interest. That is plutocracy. In my humble
Its true, I did not have this problem with Trisquel 7, at all. Only after
upgrade.
