[solved] Graphics issues after upgrade
So I upgraded for the first time in a month or so last night, and it broke my graphics.
I'm using an HP DV6t laptop with Radeon HD 6700M graphics plus Intel onboard. I usually use acpi_call to disable the Radeon card to keep heat down.
Anyway, after the upgrade I get no graphics at all when I boot up. X just won't start. So after checking the logs I figured out to try 'nomodeset', and that helps slightly -- I now have graphics, but they're stuck at 1024x768 or 800x600 (usually use 1366x768); I can't connect external monitors; and my wifi doesn't work (this is all I've noticed so far).
Here's my Xorg.log from before I set nomodeset; not sure what other information may help, but please let me know:
