Package: xserver-xorg-video-sis
Version: 1:0.10.1-2
Severity: normal
I'm using a Fujitsu Esprimo Mobile v5535, debian squeeze which I upgrade regularly. I have this laptop since december 2008 and after a couple of days of working on it I got X working (I was using a different sis driver, sadly I can't remember where I got it from - it might have been included in X - I think it was one I found somewhere on the web though, probably the sis 2D driver).
After automatic aptitude upgrade on Monday (14 Sept 2009) X stopped working. I stupidly deleted the existing /etc/X11/xorg.conf which caused the xserver to do the automatic configuration which lead to X starting with the vesa driver in 800x600. I ran X -configure (or X --configure?) and used the generated xorg.conf as a starting point. After a bit of googling I found people who managed to achieve higher resolutions with:
HorizSync 30-107
VertRefresh 50-185
I added that to my xorg.conf (included in this bugreport, only difference is the "Driver" - line - in the version I'm using it's "vesa" instead of "sis"), now I'm running X in 1280x800 with the vesa driver which works but is noticeably slower (can't watch any videos unless they're very small - with my older setup I was able to watch films in 1280x800 fullscreen without problems).
I tried finding a different working driver on the net but I couldn't find one for this version of X.org so I decided to file a bugreport. I'm still hoping it's just a configuration issue, if so, please let me know.
Thanks very much for your great work!
