I have an old laptop with a Trident Cyberblade/XP video card. tridentfb has been broken for this model card for some time now.
# service lightdm stop # modprobe tridentfb (from tty0) Screen goes black then shows stripes with light and dark areas. * I'm only able to get a gui environent by forcing vesa in xorg.conf and not loading tridentfb. * With vesa, screensaver locks-up the system (no tty, no caps-lock response) so that's been disabled. * Debian jessie-i386-lxde (new install) -- View this message in context: http://debian.2.n7.nabble.com/xserver-xorg-video-trident-broken-for-cyberblade-XP-tp3342656.html Sent from the Debian User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
