Working video cards in 3D on Debian 5.0 i386 (kernel: 2.6.26-splash) by mkisow (3):

I used the following /etc/X11/xorg.conf

  1. xorg.conf (X.Org X Window System server configuration file)
#
  1. This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool, using
  2. values from the debconf database.
#
  1. Edit this file with caution, and see the xorg.conf manual page.
  2. (Type “man xorg.conf” at the shell prompt.)
#
  1. This file is automatically updated on xserver-xorg package upgrades only
  2. if it has not been modified since the last upgrade of the xserver-xorg
  3. package.
#
  1. If you have edited this file but would like it to be automatically updated
  2. again, run the following command:
  3. sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
