I was using 4.2.1.1 from debian. I just upgraded to 4.3.0 that's in debian experimental and is now working. I really don't know what's changed between versions, but I can't understand why just changing the system board would have caused this. All I know is the fact that the old board used the generic intel setup routines and this one uses 7505 (but I also changed it).
I guess the only thing is this board is too new for X to understand or something.
I'd like to upgrade my video card, but I don't know what to get. I've looked at what 3D is supported by the kernel and looks like I'll be going for an ATI card. Any recommendations or a list of ati radeon cards that work in 3D?
