Within the line noise, I think I found something: (II) LoadModule: "vesa" (II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/vesa_drv.so So this also uses VESA? But the device detection seem to work: (II) modesetting(0): EDID for output LVDS-0 (II) modesetting(0): Manufacturer: IVO Model: 3f4 Serial#: 0 It lists several supported modes, but they somehow don't really look like what one would associate with a modern flat panel TV set... Note this: (II) modesetting(0): Output VGA-0 connected (II) modesetting(0): Output LVDS-0 connected (II) modesetting(0): Output DVI-0 disconnected (II) modesetting(0): Output DisplayPort-0 disconnected One probably is the internal display, the other one is the TV. Both are claimed to be initialized at 800x600, which sounds strange... But DRI and GLX seem to be supported. Funny... (II) modesetting(0): EDID vendor "IVO", prod id 1012 (II) modesetting(0): Printing DDC gathered Modelines: (II) modesetting(0): Modeline "1024x600"x0.0 [...] (II) modesetting(0): Allocate new frame buffer 1024x768 stride It's quite hard to see the "normal run" of X.org messages in this file, it seems to represent more than one session. Does this file mean that Linux is successful by using the VESA driver for that card and TV combination? > > So your GPU wasn't properly detected.

I'm not sure which of the available Intel driver supports a "ValleyView Gen7".

Interestingly, VESA is _also_ loaded. Why is that? For comparison, I have a nVidia card, and the nVidia driver is loded. It's the only driver which is loaded. It it possible that there are two distinct graphic subparts in that laptop? > More ideas ? Thanks.
