Bug Description
Binary package hint: xserver-
Hy!
I have a notebook with a via vn896 chipset and integrated vga...
It first worked with the feisty live cd what used the vesa X driver for it...
Hardy included the upcoming openchrome driver and used it for my card without problems (except some little)
And now with intrepid (daily iso from about sept 20.), it doesn't work at all... when X trying to start I got a full black screen with some white shit in the center (I think that's would be the cursor :)) and it freezes :(
I did the following:
passed the single param to the kernel
entered the root terminal
downloaded and installed the necessary packages and the openchrome svn
when I fired xinit, I can see my card working for some secs and then it freezes too, but it may be some another bug or my bad luck :S
I will download the daily iso tomorrow and do the test again, and I will extend this report with version numbers :)
Thank you for your help, and great work! :)
