I'm not sure but I think it's installed by default. I recently removed a lot of video drivers I don't need.
Open synaptic (Install Software) and search for unichrome
If it's not installed it's just to go ahead.
I'm not sure about Cassandra but should be the same

Don't fix it if it ain't broken, don't break it if you can't fix it

hello and thanks for the respost...
in xorg.conf i've seen only "vesa". if i change "vesa" in "via" at reboot pc is ko...
however, i can use vesa driver (i've seen that webpage scroll well

Apart from nick's solution you should be able to install in synaptic. However I'm not sure at all what the driver is called in xorg.conf - probably via but it could be s3g or unichrome....
Don't fix it if it ain't broken, don't break it if you can't fix it

After 2 days, I've resolved my problem... I've found my video driver on http://www.openchrome.org. Now also 3d is ok.
Thanks for your help and regards from Italy.
