A small update on the situation.

Another workaround: I had a nVidia GeForce 8500 GT gfx card laying about, so I used that. At least the Xorg 'nv' driver uses it. But I don't know if it is any better than using the 'vesa' driver: root@kg-v2# DISPLAY=:0.0 xvinfo X-Video Extension version 2.2 screen #0 no adaptors present root@kg-v2# DISPLAY=:0.0 xdriinfo Xlib: extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0". Screen 0: not direct rendering capable. > References: > 1) http://tingox.googlepages.com/asus_v2-m3n8200 -- Torfinn
