The goal you perceive as important gives light to the route to take. I think that you perceive this as a pep talk. Nevertheless, it is the way to see your problem so that you don't "run nowhere fast".
When you manifest your interest in installing a distro that uses non-free software it shows that you do not want to make a real effort to be free and boycott those that want to capture others' freedom. Your actions show that you are interested on being free and on stopping to contribute to non-free oligarchies as long as it does not involve not using certain functionality of your hardware. Correct me if I am wrong. Anyway, I will try to help you. You have published your lspci: jsebean@jsebean-E1-510:~$ lspci | grep VGA 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation ValleyView Gen7 (rev 0c) As h-node asks details on your hardware, there is no way to know if your problem is for reverse engineering or configuration. You have not published that data. You only say it was not on h-node. If you publish the detail on your device with lspci we can give you the help you seem to think we are not providing: lspci -s 00:02.0 -vmmnn That is what h-node asks. If you can give us that information and the result of: dmesg | grep -i firmware as I have asked you before, we can tell you what is the next step to take (from the freedom perspective). -- Saludos libres, Quiliro Ordóñez 600 8579
