You are right, the CentOS version 5 does not support the video driver
of the Intel graphic chipset. The FC9 works fine. Now the question is
where can I download video driver for CentOS 5? Or, is there anything
I can do to work around to resolve this problem? I have to use this
version of CentOS which our development was based on.

Thank you.

Kind Regards,

Jim

I suspect that laptop has one of the "really new" Intel graphic chipsets.  This
isn't a bad thing, but the path of least resistance would be to install Fedora
8 or 9 on it instead of Centos for the time being, as Fedora will have the newer
Intel video drivers that should support your chipset.
