Hello.
On a new installation of Debian 7 on an Acer "laptop" computer with an
AMD Radeon R2 graphics adaptor, the external monitor does not work.
The external monitor works with MS Win 7, with MS Win 8, with Debian

Nothing special. Depending on its settings and priorities, the firmw

As far as Linux, GRUB and not-too-broken UEFI/BIOS firmwares are
concerned, you can mix either boot scheme with either partition scheme.
Don't know about Windows though.

As has previously been posted, I have a UEFI system, which came with

I then installed Debian 7 on the system, and Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, and,
after the Debian 7 installation, the MS Win8 installation, was no
