You need firmware-linux-nonfree

And it is nessesary, that /etc/X11/xorg.conf is removed after installing firmware-linux-nonfree.

[bryn1u]

Siduction asked me before install if he may install firmware-linux-nonfree a marked "YES".  Soo how can i install firmware-linux-nonfree when i cant change terminal i see only what is on screen.

Boot your system with radeon.modeset=0 as bootcheat, then you will see anything.

Try to boot in Runlevel 3 and than change your config. Have a look here

Boot your system with radeon.modeset=0 as bootcheat, then you will see anything.

And another question from newbie . Where should i put this command and how?

[towo]

That's not a command, it's a cheatcode.
Hit "e" at the grub bootscreen and add that cheatcode at the end of the kernel-line. Then hit ctrl+x, thats all.
Ever read the bluewater-manual?

[bryn1u]

Sure. Always read. I mean "command" not command. I asked becouse i put cheatcode in grub bootscreen once in aptosid and didnt work, that's why i asked about basic question.

Thx. I will try when i back from work.

Greetz.

You can try and put the cheatcode in

Code Select Expand

/etc/default/grub
The line you want it in looks like this

Code Select Expand

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet"so when all is done, it will look like this

Code Select Expand

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet radeon.modeset=0"

There has to be a space between quiet and radeon.modeset=0

save and update-grub and reboot

**EDIT** : this is of course if

Code Select Expand

apt-get update && apt-get install firmware-linux-nonfree doesn't work

Do you have

deb http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian unstable main non-free

within your /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.list

Also you get around having to edit the new and complex grub2 configuration you can as a permanent insert place

options radeon.modeset=0

into

/etc/modprobe.d/radeon.conf (if you have that).

If you are able to install the linux-firmware-nonfree package then you may have in /etc/modprobe.d/radeon-kms.conf.  Just place the line option radeon modeset=0 in there instead of /etc/modprobe.d/radeon.conf.

Kms will be permanently disabled this way.

And while you are about it if you have pcie card as opposed to agp you can place "options radeon agpmode=-1" into /etc/modprobe.d/radeon-kms.conf or /etc/modprobe.d/radeon.conf (depending on what you have).

If it's possible PLEASE make an illustrated tutorial.  I'm having the same problem for weeks and I can't install it and make it run.  On the other hand I installed the other OS (no pun intended) recently without problems.  I don't know if it's a bug but if it is please fix it.  I'm not a geek bou love your approach to Linux...

[michaa7]

please, which line in the above description is unclear? You simply have to follow step by step. This wont change with whatever illustration. So give it a try. You are wellcome to report each error message. But you have to open your CLI (command line interface) yourself.
