(Solved)Intel HD Graphics 400 card

[VentGrey]

I recently bought this laptop for everyday Debian fun, this is the same one that was featured on the broadcom problems topics, now here we are again now with a graphics card problem! You see, the thing is that this laptop has an Intel HD Graphics 400 card, this can be seen on the product page(it is exactly that laptop) ("http://www8.hp.com/mx/es/products/lapto ... !tab=specs") the problem is, it seems that i cannot get it to work properly, i've installed the intel-microcode but i don't know if that solves the issue since i still don't see any difference on games or composting, i know Intel graphics cards are way too "bad" when it refers to graphics but there must be a way to extract some juice out of it.

Thanks in advance.

Identify your device further:

Then check the device IDs with mother startpage

You could always try to grab a newer kernel and xserver-xorg-video-intel from backports. (I assume you run stable.)

[VentGrey]

Yes i do run stable and i tried with the backports but it seems to make no difference
also i tried the commands on the page that Mr HeadOnAStick recommended and here is the output

Code: Select all

If im not wrong that should be the graphics card.

Looks like a Braswell device, try https://forums.bunsenlabs.org/viewtopic.php?id=1185

Well it seems that it was Mr Head on a stick's advice that saved me, even though It's an intel graphics i now can play somewhat good.
Thanks again!
