SiS 771/671 Mirage 3 Video Drivers

**JacobK** · May 3rd, 2009

Nevermind, it's working now! My ubuntu 8.10 sis-driver was still installed, and that was the reason the new one couldn't install itself.

**Solarium** · May 3rd, 2009

I asked a question in the previous post but it kinda got ignored so if no one mind i am gonna ask again before giving up on it.

I got Esprimo V5535 with sis 771/671 , i am using bgerlich's driver and ubuntu 9.04, when i try to watch flash vidoes from youtube or any other site in fullscreen its almost like i am watching slideshow and not a movie ... is any one else expiriencing this ? or i just did something wrong in the driver instalation.

thanks

Check if your DRI and accel is on. The info should be in /var/log/Xorg.0.log. Post this file as well as /etc/X11/xorg.conf if it is different than the original version.

Hello Bartlomiej,

Did you saw my question a few posts ago?

Been trying to get the Intel D201GLY2 working again in Ubuntu 9.04. The way I got it to work in 8.10 was to downgrade the included xorg to the Ubuntu 8.04 version.

Also, it seems the Intel documentation mentions that the included chip is SiS662, while the SiS on linux wiki (http://ncc-1701a.homelinux.net/~linux-sis/) says it's M671.

Has anyone had any luck with the D201GLY2 board, Ubuntu 9.04 and the sis driver?

Below is a beta version of sis 771/671 driver package for Ubuntu Jaunty. Now with working 2D Acceleration (XAA).

As before - simply install the deb package and make sure that your xorg.conf is the one provided by the system (no modifications required).

Great! THanks a lot! I was almost ready to give up on providing decent graphics to my mother on her Esprimo V5535.

I've tried so many things and I still can't get bgerlich's driver to work with Jaunty (9.04) on my Proline M760S laptop which has one of those silly SiS 771/671 cards (PCIE). A default installation from scratch gives me the vesa driver with the lousy 800x600 resolution as usual but after installing bgerlich's latest dpkg (v0.9) and restarting the monitor goes completely BLACK

Yes, xorg loads as judged from the gdm welcome jingle. In fact I can still blindly type in my username and password and it will log me in judging from the H/D activity.

I've tried setting various refresh rates in my xorg.conf, DRI setting of "0" and various other bits and pieces floating around in earlier posts but the screen will always stay dark
