Radeon 2100 won't work on Lucid Puppy 5.1

#1 Post by gogota »

I would be very grateful if somebody tell me how to get Radeon 2100 (onboard Graphic using AMD 745G chipset) to work on lupu 5.1

Lupu 5.1 works on many cheap pc except this AMD chipset. Every time I start xorg, the screen becomes very dark. Even if I kill X, the console cannot be seen also, I have to reboot the whole pc.

Thanks in advance for anybody who can help me.
