Well see, I have a motherboard that currently has a 4500HD onboard, however,
for whatever reason, Trisquel (and other GNU/Linux distros) have a hard time
picking up the resolution of my monitor and forces it to be 1024x768. I can't
change it to be 1280x1024, my monitor's native resolution. That's why I
started using my nVidia GPU with the Free drivers on Trisquel, it doesn't
have this problem and worked fairly well.
I've also tried installing the older version of libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental
from Slaine, but it has an unmet dependency (libdrm-nouveau1) that I can't
install without it breaking libdrm-nouveau1a, which if I uninstall that, it
basically uninstalls everything on my system.
I'd hate to go back to 4.5, besides games and Plymouth working, 5.0 is really
amazing so far.
