Thanks for the suggestion Magic Banana, but I don't need a newer kernel. My computer is 12 yr. old, built-in video on motherboard; monitor about 2 1/2 yr. Monitor has been recognized by previous GNU/Linux installs, even brand and model # were detected, by Debian actually. DO you know name of program, or a verbatim cmd, that will re-check my system? I used Trisquel 5 & 6, really liked them, had problems with 7, switched to Debian, now back to Trisquel. Seems I'll really like Trisquel 8, IF I can get it to recognize my monitor. Hmm, I'm seeing another problem though even as I slowly type... I have to keep waiting for words to catch up. I'm not good at all using the cmd line, so I still can't use it much..had to use "Guided Installation" and I seee it created small (388 MB) SWAP,though Deb had created 1.2 on a previous install. I have 512 Ram.
