Can somebody explain how to use this i810fb driver? I can't for the life of me get it to work. I don't have any problems using vesafb on other systems but the i810 E graphics controller doesn't seem to be supported on this Dell GX110. If I do something like this, kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.6-1.435.2.3 ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet video=i810fb:vram:4,xres:1024,yres:768,bpp:16,hsync1:30,hsync2:70,vsync1:50,vsync2:160,accel,mtrr It kind of just ignores it the same way it does with everything else (of course since it does not seem to load the module, what am I doing wrong there) ------------------------------------------------- binfmt_misc 7176 1 ipv6 184672 12 parport_pc 19392 1 lp 8236 0 parport 29640 2 parport_pc,lp autofs4 12932 0 sunrpc 109924 1 3c59x 30504 0 floppy 47440 0 sg 27680 0 scsi_mod 91984 1 sg microcode 4768 0 dm_mod 32800 0 uhci_hcd 24472 0 button 4632 0 battery 6924 0 asus_acpi 8984 0 ac 3340 0 ext3 103656 2 jbd 40728 1 ext3 --------------------------------------------------- So if I manually modprobe it modprobe i810fb vram=4 xres=1024 yres=768 bpp=16 hsync1=30 hsync2=70 vsync1=50 vsync2=160 accel=1 mtrr=1 it comes back with; --------------------------------------------------- I810FB: fb0 : Intel(R) 810E Framebuffer Device v0.9.0 I810FB: Video RAM : 4096K I810FB: Monitor : H: 30-70 KHz V: 50-160 Hz I810FB: Mode : 1024x768-16bpp@86Hz ---------------------------------------------------- which is great and all.... but that is all it seems to do, nor do I want to do that every time I boot the computer. If I do something like fbset -a 1024x768-75 or anything I pick..... Screen goes blank and comes back with the exact same thing I already have.. (nothing) So for the most part I think I don't understand this, and my monitor seems pretty crazy but those are the values I got from xorg.conf when I select this Dell monitor model (which is fine under X) So what would I do here, can somebody explain how I 'should' be able to get this working the same way I do with vesa compatabale chipsets where all I really have to do is add vga=0x371 and everything is fine and dandy. (I don't grasp their documentation either, it doesn't seem to work when I follow exactly what they say to do) Thanks -Mike
