Basically you need ti install the extra drivers required by your hardware (see lvu section xorg7/driver)
This, and a bit more, was covered in the comments when the 1.6.4-beta1 ISO was released. |

You mentioned my User Report but don't forget that it is three years and three ISOs out of date now, and lots of things have changed. In fact, it would be really really cool if you could write your own User Report describing what you, as a first-time Lunar user, found useful, difficult, confusing, etc. so that (a) it will help other people and (b) we can see what areas we need to improve or document on the Wiki. |
