Linux Graphics Drivers

Hi,

I've just put debian on my laptop (all I know at the moment is its a packard bell easynote) I'm not 100% of the graphics card but its an on board built in laptop one lol.

I was wondering, because at the moment the resolution (using debian) is maxed out at 800x600 I need it to run higher, do I need another graphics card driver?

Thanks

Isn't this thread for General PC?

Could you post your xorg.conf? Also, do you have onboard card support enabled in your kernel?

Also, if you run lspci, it should give your onboard card type
