I bought a Dell Inspiron 500m with Intel's 855gme graphics and decided to isntall Mandrake 9.2 on it. In the internet I found that I need 855patch to make it work with X. I donwloaded the patch, made it and ran from the command line:
./855patch 8192.
This got me the message: Could not calculate correct location to patch!
I checked the output from dmesg and discovered no conflicts there and I made sure that agpgart module is loaded. My kernel is 2.4.22-10, but I tried older one with the same results.
I managed to make the X work with XFree4.3 vesa driver with 1024x768, 8bpp and I attached the XFree86 log file for more details.
What goes wrong?
Thanks, ~Serge
