- Can you enable the HDMI monitor manually by means of "xrandr"? - Does the same happen with Squeeze stock kernel? If I recall correctly, you were using a kernel from backports. - Does the same happen with an updated kernel (backports has now kernel 3.2.23) - Does the same happen with GNOME or just randomly with KDE? >>First problem in GNOME: screen resolution is wrong. > >>Second problem in GNOME: Refresh rate is wrong. > >>Both issues (with KDE and GNOME) can be due to the static values you >>have defined at the "xorg.conf" file.

I'm neither that sure but testing this won't hurt (just remember to make a backup of the original "xorg.conf" file at first place). > I'll show you the ls output of /etc/X11 (re-arranging the output) > > ls -p /etc/X11 > app-defaults/ > default-display-manager > rgb.txt > xinit/ > Xreset > Xresources/ > Xsession.d/ > XvMCConfig cursors/ > fonts/ > X > xkb/ > Xreset.d/ > Xsession > Xsession.options > Xwrapper.config Run "locate xorg.conf" and send here the output.

If you're interested, you can enable 3D by following these instructions ;-) http://wiki.debian.org/AtiHowTo Greetings, -- Camaleón -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
