In any case this is a piece of Xorg.0.log from a laptop with F10 installed on it (it required also in a boot command 'clocksource=jiffies' before that started to work): ..... (==) intel(0): Default visual is TrueColor (**) intel(0): Option "NoAccel" (II) intel(0): Integrated Graphics Chipset: Intel(R) 845G (--) intel(0): Chipset: "845G" ..... The driver in question claims the following support: (II) intel: Driver for Intel Integrated Graphics Chipsets: i810, i810-dc100, i810e, i815, i830M, 845G, 852GM/855GM, 865G, 915G, E7221 (i915), 915GM, 945G, 945GM, 945GME, 965G, G35, 965Q, 946GZ, 965GM, 965GME/GLE, G33, Q35, Q33, Mobile Intel® GM45 Express Chipset, Intel Integrated Graphics Device, G45/G43, Q45/Q43, G41 so if it does not then this is a bug. Unfortunately it is not hard to find those for that driver in bugzilla. > My question is, what now? Now it is a time to read 'man intel'. It definitely would be nicer if that would work straight "out-of-the-box" but if it does not ....
