> i810 driver support 915G as well - check > man i810 I think I will get somewhere with this soon. I do believe it is a device driver problem. lspci gives me the following output 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corp. Mobile Graphics Controller (rev 03) 00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corp. Mobile Graphics Controller (rev 03) my xorg log suggests the problem is that there is no 'screen' set for the device 00:02.1 and I get the errors : Fatal server error: no screens found I have the following in my xorg.con Section "Device" Identifier "Videocard0" Driver "i810" VendorName "Videocard vendor" BoardName "Intel 855" EndSection Do I perhaps need something for Videocard1 ? thanks again Jon
