I am having problems with the 830m chipset in my dell 2600, using the
release version of lucid. adding "i915.modeset=0" does not solve
anything, nor does "nomodeset." (using both doesn't work either.)
Plymouth is flickering like crazy and kind of looks like an old TV set

Hallo everyone,
I am not able to use my Sony Vaio VGN-B1VP without adding i915.modeset=1
to the Kernel Commandline. If I am going to try to boot it without that
setting the Laptop freezes as soon as the X-Server comes up. It is

This is an unfortunate situation. There are users with 830 chips who are
impacted by a regressions in stability in the current x stack when
running 3d and KMS.
We have opted for a "stability first" approach for these users. We will
disable 3D and KMS for these chips in Lucid final release. This wi
I wish we had more testing evidence to base this decision on, but I've
posted a kernel bug report requesting KMS disablement on three of the
older 8xx cards: lp #563277
We've already sent up a fair plentitude of bug reports to upstream, so
I'm hopeful that they'll come up with fixes to this and t

Alright, I'm convinced. Let's focus one bug report per chip, for
accounting purposes. It's likely that if/when fixes come they'll be
done for chips individually.
While it sounds like KMS works for some i830 users, non-KMS should also
work for them, so this blacklisting will result in more total
