RE: [Xpert]Re: Radeon 8500 kernel module

2002-06-10 Thread Alain Forcier 


 I got problem configuring my laptop IBM thinkpad R31 with RedHAt Linux 7.2

  it's have a video card Intel 830M , 32 MB and screen is 14.1 "

  when choosing Intel 810 (as IBM suggested) and Generic Monitor (or even
Generic Laptop monitor 800x600...) the xserver is not working.

   Anyone have suggestions to setup Laptop on a good way.

   My PC workstations work just fine.

  Thanks

   Alain

There is no Radeon 8500 DRI support currently, so thats no 
surprise.  ;o)

If you go back a day or so in the list archives however you'll
find a posting from Tungsten Graphics stating they're being
funded by The Weather Channel to write a DRI driver for the 8500
which will be released in Q4 2002.
