Having updated my Dell Latitude CPx to testing last night, in order to get OpenOffice 1.1, everything seemed fine until I attempted to use atitvout this morning - in front of a roomful of students - to use the CRT out as well as the builtin screen.
It would seem that I have encountered a known problem (as in the archive at http://lists.debian.org/debian-laptop/2003/debian-laptop-200305/msg00334.html). The suggested solution back in May was to install the ati.2 drivers from gatos.sf.net. Unfortunately a) their web site doesn't seem to have a version for XFree 4.2.1 which is the version in testing and b) I'd rather not mess around installing xfree drivers from tgz files if I can avoid it. So, does anyone know of a Debian solution to this problem (i.e. a solution involving .debs)? -- |Deryk Barker, Computer Science Dept. | Music does not have to be understood| |Camosun College, Victoria, BC, Canada| It has to be listened to. | |email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | |phone: +1 250 370 4452 | Hermann Scherchen. | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
