I recently installed OpenBSD 3.8 (I haven't received my 3.9 CD in the mail yet), and am having problems getting X to work (among other things).
It's a Dell Inspiron 1300 notebook w/ Integrated Intel Media Accelerator 900 Graphics (Intel 915GM). The full dmesg is below. So, quick question. I noticed the following bullet on the OpenBSD 3.9 release page. Could this be my problem? That is, is it referring to the same Intel 915 as my graphics? Clueless, I know - sorry. - Support the Intel i915 AGP I've tried following the instructions in /usr/X11R6/README, using the various X wizards (xorgcfg, xorgconfig, xf86config3), and /etc/sysctl.conf has machdep.allowaperture set to 2 because I answered yes to the X question during the install. I also tried copying over the XF86Config and XF86Config-4 files that were generated by a KNOPPIX live-CD that worked on the same box, but that didn't work either. Thanks. --d OpenBSD 3.8 (GENERIC) #138: Sat Sep 10 15:41:37 MDT 2005 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/GENERIC cpu0: Intel(R) Celeron(R) M processor 1.40GHz ("GenuineIntel" 686-class) 1.40 GHz cpu0: FPU,V86,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,PAE,MCE,CX8,APIC,SEP,MTRR,PGE,MCA,CMOV,PAT,CFLUSH,ACPI ,MMX,FXSR,SSE,SSE2,SS,TM,SBF real mem = 527880192 (515508K) avail mem = 474746880 (463620K) using 4278 buffers containing 26497024 bytes (25876K) of memory mainbus0 (root) bios0 at mainbus0: AT/286+(00) BIOS, date 01/24/06, BIOS32 rev. 0 @ 0xffe90 pcibios0 at bios0: rev 2.1 @ 0xf0000/0x10000 pcibios0: PCI IRQ Routing Table rev 1.0 @ 0xfb790/176 (9 entries) pcibios0: PCI Interrupt Router at 000:31:0 ("Intel 82371 ISA and IDE" rev 0x00) pcibios0: PCI bus #3 is the last bus bios0: ROM list: 0xc0000/0xf800!
