RE: Problem with Video Card Drivers
Hi Florian,
I am using Debian 3.1 Release 2 Stable.
How to enter the comman you gave, do I need to open Konsole and enter
the command?
How I can re-configure the video drivers screen resolution?
Regards,
robert

The driver for the Intel 915G is already included in Debian. It is
called "i810". If you use Debian stable (Sarge) you can run (as root)
dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86
If you use testing (Etch) or unstable (Sid) the command is
dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
This will give you the same dialog as during installation. It should
allow you to select the "i810" driver and your desired screen
resolution(s). (There might be some more questions; just accept the
default when you are in doubt about the right answer.)
If you have any more questions, please use debian-user@lists.debian.org.
