Pretty Please,
tell me this isn't true:
The only sensible answer I got from debian list boils down to: "use
proprietary driver".
This is truly sad, especially since I *know* Linux Mint (which is a
debian derivative, through ubuntu parentage) does indeed work
out-of-the-box with *no* configuration at all.
If this is the same box, you can mount the mint drive/partition and look for an /etc/X11/xorg.conf file to copy to your Debian install~or~ follow these
As said multiple times:
Linux Mint works *WITHOUT* any configuration.
*NO* /etc/X11/xorg.conf (no, neither xorg.conf.d is present) I can copy.
That's why I suspect difference lies in compilation switches in either X server or kernel itself.

Unfortunately the site seems down :(
The HUGE reason I recommend the nvidia driver is that you will get much better performance IF you want to play openGL games and less tearing as you move windows from monitor to monitor. Yeah, I am a selfish shameless pig. <cackles> Ric
I tried that, but it doesn't work either, or, at least, I was not able to make it work, despite I tried several configurations (and also no configuration).
