I'm running Debian etch on my iBook G4 1.2GHz. with Xorg 6.9 I had my external VGA port working very well (the external monitor only needed to be connected when X started). I didn't even need to do anything special but to use the xorg.conf dpgk-reconfigure xserver-xorg created without anything special. A couple of days ago I upgrade my etch system and Xorg 7.0 got installed, and my external VGA port doesn't work any more. As far as I know, the only change between xorg 6.9 and 7.0 where in the build system and in the package splitt? So I assume I just need to install a package or something similar easy, to get my external VGA port Have you installed xserver-xorg-video-ati ? (for using the driver radeon) working again? Any hints? Anyone has his external VAG port working on an iBook G4 with xorg 7.0? Yes. It works for me. (ibook g4 1.2ghz 12 and debian unstable).
