I have a SIS 771/671 graphical card on my laptop, and till now I've just got the conviction that it just does not works very well on Debian 7.0, Linux Mint 16, 17 and some old Ubuntu versions. From that post we see that I'm not alone and it does not works well on Lubuntu.
It's easy to deduce that Debian based system does not works good with that graphical card.
So, have someone a suggestion for some distro that may be more efficient with SIS 771/671?

          https://www.mageia.org has working drivers for this card. You can even get them from there to use it a distribution which still uses xorg 1.15.



          See the (spanish) blog post http://www.vivaolinux.com.br/dica/Configurando-SIS-67172-no-Ubuntu-1404.
