Hi,

Clean & simple : how do I install a screen driver in Gnome/F10?

Tnx!

You mean 'touch screen drivers'?

http://www.conan.de/touchscreen/evtouch.html will help you.

You may need a custom /etc/X11/xorg.conf for perfect results??

No, just a screen driver. I run a Compaq EVO and the screen mover in jitters. Every graphicasl effort sends the CPU @ 100 pct capacity, so I suspect I dont have a screen driver. Otherwise everything is OK...games, Blender3d or the like pose a problem. Also, I cant do any screen settings...

The install was done in VESA, so I suspect the installer did'nt install any drivers...

BTW, this is the contents of the said conf file

Quote:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "vesa"
EndSection
Hmmm, shouldn't it read something like "82845G/GL" - it's an Intel...

which is hat I got in this machine...
