Hi all,
My specs:
HP Envy 14
Hybrid graphics Intel HD/ATI Mobility Radeon 5650
I downloaded and booted the LMDE 201204 live DVD.
Everything looked good (wireless, sound, graphics, etc) so did an install.
Booting into the installed system:
Text splash screen
Let the system boot the default
Text about i915 failing to find symbols and something (too fast to see)
loud beep
then nothing.
Tried nomodeset in command line
System complained about unrecognized command
Tried xdriver=no/vesa - no help
Tried xdriver=no/intel - no help
Tried xdriver=no/radeon - no help
Tried xdriver=no/ati - no help
Tried radeon.modeset=0 - no help
How do I find out what graphics driver the live dvd is using?
Can I force that driver in the install?
NOTE: Installed PCLOS and Mint 12 with no problems.
Thanks
Rick.

I don't know if that's possible or a good idea but could you deactivate one chip in BIOS?rick0612 wrote:Hybrid graphics Intel HD/ATI Mobility Radeon 5650
Don't know if this fits but look also here: http://wiki.debian.org/InstallingDebian ... n%202020ep
Look into /var/log/Xorg.0.log to get informations.How do I find out what graphics driver the live dvd is using?
Either you use a xorg.conf or try to install a proprietary driver.Can I force that driver in the install?

Re: Blank screen after install
don't know but it kinda sounds like a grub install problem
