Compiling the latest 2.6.22.6 kernel for my machine:
Intel 945GM graphics:
Up to date 7.3 xorg released drivers
I know about the obvious kernel parameters:
Device Drivers ->
Character devices ->
<M> /dev/agpgart
<M> Direct Rendering Manager
<M> Intel 830M, 845G, .....
<M> i915 driver
But I'm a little uncertain about some of these:
Device Drivers ->
Graphics support ->
<?> Backlight & LCD device support ->
<?> Display panel/monitor support
<?> Support for frame buffer devices
<?> Enable firmware EDID
<?> Enable Tile Blitting Support
<?> Support for frame buffer devices ->
<?> Intel 810/815 support
<?> Intel 830M/845G.....
<?> Intel driver debug messages
<?> DDC/I2C for Intel framebuffer support
Frame buffer requires the following:
Device Drivers ->
<M> I2C device interface
I2C Algorithms ->
<M> I2C bit-banging interface
I've been poking around in the kernel because I keep getting the
following errors in my log:
(EE) Unable to locate/open config file
(EE) open /dev/fb0: No such file or directory
I have a config file in /usr/lib/xorg/xorg.conf
Is the second error anything critical?
Thanks,
Chris
