Hello all, I recently purchased a Dell D400, which suffers from a BIOS only allocating <1MB of legacy video memory (stolen memory) to the integrated graphics... I believe the Dell 500m and other 855GM laptops suffer from this as well. The BIOS also does not provide the appropriate mechanisms for the current drivers to change that.
Researching, I found that the Dell C400 and other similar laptops had this problem too (with an older chipset), but a work around was written (by Abraham vd Merwe?). Does anyone know if a similar work around could be applied to the 855GM's? Or is the chipset radically different so that that fix will not work? More info on the C400 is here: http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~chak/linux/c400.html Thanks! -Oliver Wong _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel
