Hi,
I recently installed Trisquel 8 on an old Samsung R522.
All is fine but image or photos are displayed with a bad aspect ratio and
they seems to be shrinked.
If I take a look to configuration, the screen has the following resolution
1024x768 61Hz. When my computer use Windows OS, the resolution was more like
1366x768.
If I run the command 'inxi -G', I get :
Graphics: Card: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD/ATI] RV710/M92 [Mobility Radeon
HD 4330/4350/4550]
Display Server: X.Org 1.18.4 driver: vesa
Resolution: [email protected]
GLX Renderer: llvmpipe (LLVM 6.0, 128 bits)
GLX Version: 3.0 Mesa 18.0.5
If I run the command 'xrand', I get :
xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default
Screen 0: minimum 800 x 600, current 1024 x 768, maximum 1024 x 768
default connected primary 1024x768+0+0 0mm x 0mm
1024x768 61.00*
800x600 61.00
The "Failed to get size of gamma" is probably not a good thing.
I try to correct the problem by manually install following packages :
firmware-amd-graphics_20161130-5~deb8u1_all.deb
firmware-misc-nonfree_20161130-5~deb8u1_all.deb
firmware-linux-nonfree_20161130-5~deb8u1_all.deb
It does not change anything.
I try to rename the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf.vesa to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.
This modification add the resolution 800x600 but images are still shrinked.
Any idea to solve the problem ?
Thanks in advanced
