Hi, All
Any body know does FC4 test 1 support for graphic card chipset 915GM???

thanks

There is a module included in the kernel (Rawhide)
/lib/modules/2.6.11-1.1177_FC4/kernel/drivers/char/drm/i915.ko

and one for dri within xorg-x11

/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/i915_dri.so

I couldn't tell you if they work though. I have an Intel 815, but not a 915.

I believe you have some hope for FC4 to work with the 915 chip.
