Package: release-notes Severity: important When this happens the resolution is lower than possible and there are some programs which won't scroll to compensate making them unusable. The solution is to make manual entries in xorg.conf or use a program (I don't know if there is one in debian - new to the distro) which allows selecting the video card and monitor brand then applying settings for them to xorg.conf.
I'm not trying to compare debian to other distributions but an example of this is is the SuSE 11.2 release notes (I abandoned SuSE 11.2 because of additional video problems and KDE 4). -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.3 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-2-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
