Thanks for your quick response ...i got the following back - 01:06.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc ES1000 (rev 02) But do not know where to go from here. People are working on the server right now - so can not reboot it. my current grub line is this: linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-5-amd64 root=UUID=8f86f3f1-b453-4801-ac5c-a5a86135256f ro quiet you would like me to change it to: linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-5-amd64 root=UUID=8f86f3f1-b453-4801-ac5c-a5a86135256f ro quiet video=radeon:off am I right ? But I have googled the issue - it is out there - there are some suggestions about doing stuff with Xorg.conf file - but do not understand at all. Can you or anyone give me some pointers -- if your earlier suggestions does not work ? thanks mjh -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
