Kernel update accomplished nothing, unfortunately. How exactly would I force the use of one driver over another, though?
I think video-linux will serve you i915 by default … but if you add video-modesetting that should take precedence.
(you can check with inxi -G)
Alright, so I’m running video-linux and will try modesetting shortly. I just plugged in an external monitor…and that displays fully?
Same issue with modesetting.
hm… can we verify anything displays fully and its not some sort of BIOS setting or broken screen?
Windows works fully…and is still installed. Anyways, I’ve got to pop off for dinner for 30 minutes. Would be wonderful if you dropped any suggestions if you have them.
I’m at a loss.
