IMHO the best is to try to load the latest i830 DRI driver, you should see a double output like > [drm] Initialized i830 1.3.2 20021108 on minor 0: Intel i852GM/i855GM GMCH > [drm] Initialized i830 1.3.2 20021108 on minor 1: Intel i852GM/i855GM GMCH (other infos for my old ASUS M3410C and GNU/Linux in the link above) and IIRC you can see it from /var/log/XFree86.log.0. Anyway there're some other posts on this list about this subject.

AFAIK perhaps you need the latest XFree86 CVS in order to use it (I never tried it on latest CVS, just on Debian experimental XFree86 4.3.0) > I found somewhere on the web (I think it's on xfree86.org) a page by David > dawes, giving details about this driver and it's installation. Exactly, David Dawes page (which is the general i810/i830 driver http://www.xfree86.org/~dawes/845driver.html or some instructions on my ASUS M3410C Debian report http://luca.pca.it/projects/asus/m3410c.php Thx, bye, Gismo / Luca -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Debian - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFAM3TCVAp7Xm10JmkRAi7gAKCKlBqJWNiuA27ecLzUhCsZ73/ygACeIMC7 Z1cVu/N5L7gDEmBtcmvxTmI= =gbnf -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ XFree86 mailing list XFree86@xxxxxxxxxxx http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
