I have an old laptop with on board 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset Integrated
Graphics Device (rev 03) which only has 640x480 available using the
xf86-video-intel v2.99.911 driver with xorg-server 1.15.1. Additionally, I
cannot use an external monitor attached to the onboard VGA out which I know is
good since I can use it under another OS. Is this old chipset still supported?
I attached Xorg.0.log. Thank you for any advice I can use to get the full set
of resolutions since running in 640x480 is not workable.
