Test done in August 2013. Trisquel 6.0 liveCD could not login to its desktop environment, automatically logout back to login screen. After netinstall it worked. gNewSense 3.0 LiveDVD worked but it was using VESA driver. Worked in Trisquel 6.0 with nouveau 1.0.9. Compiz and OPENGL did not work with mesa 9.2-devel and 9.3-devel.

Worked with the newer linux-libre kernels from the following PPAs:

• https://launchpad.net/~linux-libre/+archive/ppa/ (3.8.x-gnu)
• http://jxself.org/linux-libre/ (3.10.x-gnu)
