I have updated to R5E50 fine (from R5C7), but the video display is only 640x480, while it should be 1920x1080 as before.
I have noticed that Xorg 7 is now used instead of XFree86.
The driver is set to "nv" instead of "nvidia" previously.
I wanted to install the official nvidia driver, but the installation fails.
How can I progress on this?
Thanks.
