i created this issue: https://issues.openthinclient.org/otc/browse/SUITE-230 and scheduled it for the next release. if you want to test the driver right now, please add a comment to this issue and i can upload the module with install instructions. some questions about this issue: - which graphics card are you using? (lspci -v) - does the old via (unichrome) driver work with this card?
