Hi All, This is for all those that have had questions about this type of graphics. As you can see, the next XFree86 version will have support for it, but if you need or want it now, I pulled this off the xfree86 list to pass on to you. Hope it is helpful to those wanting to stay on the bleeding edge! --------------------------------Quoted message begins: Are there any plans to support the Intel Extreme Graphics card (845)? I tried using the "vesa" driver as documented by RedHat as the replacement. However the only resolution I can get is 640x480 which is horrible? Are there any other configuration parameters I can tweak or another driver I can use will work better? XFree86 version 4.2.99.x has 845 support - it works well. Version 4.3.x will have support when it is released in the next couple of weeks. I used CVSup to get the latest source code, then compiled and linked the modules - it's not too hard to do (If you know how!) Here's the notes I wrote down: 1. Get CVSup from ftp://ftp3.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/development/CVSup/binaries/RedHat-6/ 2. Place the .tar.gz file in desired directory and extract contents (in KDE, right click on file and select "Extract Here...") 3. Launch terminal and cd to /usr 4. create /xbuild and /sup under /usr (mkdir xbuild, mkdir sup) 5.create /xf86 under /sup (cd to sup, mkdir xf86) 6. with a text editor, create a text file named a.txt containing the following content: *default release=cvs host=anoncvs.xfree86.org base=/usr/sup/xf86 *default prefix=/usr/Xbuild delete use-rel-suffix *default compress *default tag=. cvs-base xc-all contrib-all xtest-all doctools-all utils-all 7. place a.txt in the directory where cvsup was extracted to 8. in terminal, cd to directory where cvsup was extracted to 9. run the command: ./cvsup a.txt 10. run the command several times, as necessary, until the last line in terminal says the transfer was completed successfully 11. run the command one more time to make sure. 12. in terminal, cd to /usr/xbuild 13. in terminal, run the command: make World 14. make World may take 1 to 2 hours to complete 15. shut down xFree86, if it is running - the easiest way to do this is to go to a terminal window and execute the command: shutdown now This will shutdown xFree86 and a few other processes and bring up a console prompt 16. with xFree86 not running and at a terminal prompt, cd /usr/xbuild 17. run the command: make install 18. make install will take 30min to an hour 19. reboot the machine 20. Under System Settings, Display, you should have more resolution and color depth choices under the Intel 845 chip. Hope this helps! end of message --======================= Patrick --- KMail v1.4.3 --- SuSE Linux Pro v8.1 --- Registered Linux User #225206
