I have the opportunity to purchase a Dell laptop

Can someone advice me as to the likelihood of using
the h/w or will I be limitied to the framebuffer?
I think Crestline means the GMA X3100 core but not necessarily the
GM965. According to Intel's ARK, it could be GM965, GME965, GL960 or
GLE960. In practice, I don't think it will matter.

One of my old laptops has a GM965 and it works fine in X. It's a
Dell Inspiron 1525 that was advertised as having Crestline graphics.
The only problem that I've run into on the laptop is that
suspend/resume is flaky.
I have 106x36 characters in the console and 1280x800 resolution in X.
It uses inteldrm as Chris mentioned so you can leave
machdep.allowaperture=0 and still run X. It's currently running the
latest i386 snapshot.
