A quick Google search of your "1564" appears to confirm that the integrated graphics card is not useable.integrated graphics card is not usable ??? means ????? can understand what you wanna sayWe can not be sure that the BIOS is well written, though. /var/log/dmesg may contain hints.please have a look at the output[1] on "cat /var/log/dmesg" [1] http://cl1p.net/jk/The log seems to be missing all of the memory stuff at the beginning, lines with terms like 820e and MTRR in them.
ok,can you have a look at attached file ??? is it ok ... does it says something usable ???
No, there are no any option to set the memory Enable/Disable for the graphics .But I'm buying that it's possible to be related to the built in graphics. Does the BIOS give you a way to disable that?
Having run on 16MB system with early Linux versions, I have to say it's only a few hundred MB, but... it is.
