[ramaswamyps]

apt-get , synaptic pickup pclos 2010 updates for PCLinuxOS-FullMonty release 2012.09
what source.list i should use?

[pinoc]

the 2010 repo is just a name for our 32bit repo, it is not for the year 2010 but contains uptodate packages.

The PCLinuxOS mirrors are moving right now but you can get a list of current mirrors here.

hope this helps,

thanks for the clarification.
i was looking for an update to my amd/ati video driver/kernel or some to change my current 800x600 display resolution.
seems there is no way to get my screen 1330x768 on my desktop
2010-12 also gives only 800x600 res.
googleearth warns the resolution is too small and though it works is not as good as t works in my windows 7 and 8
xorg.conf says mode 1024x768 to 60x400
but the screen has fixed mode of 800x600 in xrandr /desktop settings
any advice welcome on this issue

surprisingly sound works but no volume control kmix does not control sound.

In mixer playback devices check whether built-in audio anolog sterio is enabled, seems only HDMI is anabled
