Hi folks :)
So that's, I've installed Debian on my Asus A6JM laptop and some things
just don't work, most importantly the NIC and the video. The NIC is a
Realtek 8168 Gigabyte and the video crd is an nvidia GeForce Go 7600.
Both of them work fine in Ubuntu - I know Ubuntu is not Debian but
surely if they work in Ubuntu it should be possible to get them working
in Debian.
I've tried both Sarge and Etch with the same results. Using a 2.6 kernel
in either leads to a funny thing, the system detecs a NIC but it is
unusable.
About the video, the main problem is the resolution, I'm stuck at
1024x768 while my laptop panel is 1280x800. I've tried installing the
nvidia drivers but then I get the classic "No screens found" error on X
startup, which also confuses me since the drivers work perfectly on my
hardware in Ubuntu.
The driver from the nvidia site?
