I would be happy to try a particular experiment, given instructions... >e.g. disabling framebuffer? Er, how? xserver-xorg-video-fbdev isn't installed, nor for that matter xserver-xorg-video-modesetting. As I said, I'm out of my depth. >Which is yours PCIe, or AGP? Ah! One I can answer: AGP >Which WM/DE(s) is/are you trying to use? xfce4 and all that goes with it, but I don't think it's getting that far. As previously remarked, that stuff does all work with the vesa driver (achieved by tweaking xorg.conf). >Can you see any other clues than Xorg.0.log shows by running >'journalctl -b -1'? Nope, though I might possibly not recognise a clue... Apologies for uselessness (and also btw for wrecking the thread structure with a completely inadvertent small subject change, the genesis of which is a complete mystery to me). -- Tony Stoneley
