Attached is a picture of the lspci -nn results. I do hope these help. I tried to get into Xorg.0.log and saw that there were two of them, one old and the regular one. I couldn't remember the command to read them so I didn't get a copy of them. If you need anything else I will gladly comply.

Thanks Patrick. I don't think DebianEeePC has any specific info on the EeePC Model 1215b. They have a link to a Squeeze 2.6.39 backport that probably works; but they warn against using it; and recommend Squeeze instead. I'm still using Debian Squeeze 6.0.4. Full 1366x768 resolution displays fine
