XFree86 on Vaio GRX416G not running
I all,
I'm very new to Linux and tried to install
a debian 3.0r1 on my laptop (Sony Vaio
with ATI Mobility Radeon 7500).
Basic configuration with (ether)network runs fine.
In the Tasksel I marked the desktop and laptop options,
and hoped to get a graphical working enironment :-(
After a while I recognized that I had to install a
Xserver, so I tried to install:
apt-get install xserver-xfree86
This command installed a 4.2.1 version of xfree,
but after rebooting the system and starting xserver
via gdm automatically, I run into errors once again.
Error messages mentioned that no screens where found...
Any idea what to install for a basic debian with kde
or gnome on a vaio with ati radeon?
I just need to run a webserver and a browser on this
installation, no games or the like...
best regards
norbert
