Thanks. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- jacmet - 11-02-08 10:39 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Isn't 915resolution only for really old Intel drivers? Shouldn't we bump the intel driver version instead? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- robang74 - 11-03-08 02:55 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- AFAIK 915resolutions is a user space utility which overwrite BIOS resolutions table in order to activate/use non standard resolutions like 800x480 in X (i.e.: in eeepc). Instead v86d is a user space helper for uvesafb (a kernel patch) which is useful for use frame buffer at non standard resolutions like 800x480 (i.e.: in eeepc). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- jacmet - 11-03-08 03:01 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- yeah, but doesn't the intel driver do it's own mode settings nowadays? I atleast don't need 915resolution to run 1280x800 on this laptop Issue History Date Modified Username Field Change ====================================================================== 11-01-08 03:23 robang74 New Issue 11-01-08 03:23 robang74 Status new => assigned 11-01-08 03:23 robang74 Assigned To => buildroot 11-01-08 03:23 robang74 File Added: resolutions.patch 11-01-08 03:23 robang74 Issue Monitored: robang74 11-01-08 13:24 robang74 Note Added: 0014784 11-01-08 13:24 robang74 Note Edited: 0014784 11-02-08 10:39 jacmet Note Added: 0014884 11-03-08 02:51 robang74 File Added: resolutions.patch2 11-03-08 02:55 robang74 Note Added: 0014914 11-03-08 03:01 jacmet Note Added: 0014924 ======================================================================
