  Description : resolution modify tool for Intel chipsets

 915resolution is a tool to modify the video BIOS of the 800
 and 900 series Intel graphics chipsets. This includes the 845G,
 855G, and 865G chipsets, as well as 915G, 915GM, and 945G chipsets.
 This modification is necessary to allow the display of certain
 graphics resolutions for an Xorg or XFree86 graphics server.
 .
 915resolution's modifications of the BIOS are transient.
 There is no risk of permanent modification of the BIOS.
 This also means that 915resolution must be run every time the
 computer boots inorder for it's changes to take effect.
 If you want to automatically set the resolution on each boot
 and before X is launched, see /usr/share/doc/915resolution/README.Debian
 for information about configuring the provided initscript.

Is it a full replacement for 855resolution? In this case, could you
synchronize with the 855resolution maintainer to avoid having both
packages in the archive?

and also provide, replace and conflict with it, of course ;-)
