Err, I'm presuming that this was unintentional? :)
Yes, thanks :)
If I may ask, what's the point of this in the devel
branch, where we don't actually use the BIOS?
Seriously.  F9 won't have the i810 driver anymore.  915resolution can
die now.

I suspect there will be few people happier than I when that finally
happens.  However, this was also supposed to happen for FC-6, so I
trust you won't object too much when want to see it first :)

The driver was there in FC6 and F7, just not enabled by default except for known working chips. With F8, most Intel hardware should be defaulted to the modesetting driver. And as of rawhide today, the i810 driver is gone, gone, gone :)

* Tue Nov 13 2007 Adam Jackson <ajax@xxxxxxxxxx> 2.1.99-1
- xf86-video-intel 2.1.99.
- Drop the i810 driver.  Time to move on.
- Require xserver 1.4.99.1
