Woody with sis650 graphics


I have an asustek P4SGL-vm with an sis650GL chipset, does anyone know if woody supports the onboard graphics driver,

I have tried all the SIS versions with no success.


normally on a fresh build i rename the XF86config-4 file (which rarely works) and set it up with xf86config, which usually gets it going, but i cant seem to get it working on this hardware??

Help please.

The xfree86 version on woody is very old and I doubt it has support for this card. I would suggest upgrading to Sarge. You can either do re-install with the new installer or you can edit /etc/apt/sources.list and change all references to woody/stable to sarge/testing and then do apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade.
