Public bug reported: I have an old, but still usable laptop with SiS VGA adapter: lspci -knn: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 65x/M650/740 PCI/AGP VGA Display Adapter [1039:6325] lspci -knn: Subsystem: Mitac 65x/M650/740 PCI/AGP VGA Display Adapter [1071:8640]
Unfortunately, after the upgrade to 16.04 version it is used only in the completely useless 640x480 resolution.
