Hi olimex,

Which drivers or modules need to be loaded to enable video?

I do not understand well your question, the framebuffer and video console are enabled in the SD card image which I explain how to build here: http://olimex.wordpress.com/2012/10/12/building-bootable-sd-card-with-debian-linux-image-for-a13-olinuxino/

I installed xfce4 on my sd card with debian. Everything seems to work fine except that the network connection stopped working. I can not ping, install software or use the browser. The card gets an IP adress and I can see it connected on the router.

I use an usb to ethernet converter that work under android and worked with debian before installing xfce4.

Anybody know a fix?

Sorry, I do not have that card, my board is REVB.  :)

So, the modules are fb.ko and console.ko  ???

What should appear when I type lsmod.

Hi,

I find that it is necessary only fbcon.ko and lcd.ko to enable vga output.  ;D

Is also necessary to install Xorg.
