When you say "internal video does not work", what do you mean?
Is the laptop screen black, garbled, flickering, unresponsive?

If black, did you try startx for the command line?

Are there any errors (EE) or warnings (WW) in /var/log/Xorg.0.log?

Anything in /var/log/messages or dmesg?

What is the output of lspci | grep VGA?
