Bad V_BIOS checksum - Have I killed it with 915resolution?

[Max Meyer]

Hi,

I'm using gentoo linux, kernel 2.6.23-r6 on my laptop and emerged the x11-drivers/xf86-video-i810 version 2.2.0.90 for my 855GM card. I've had some problems enabling DRI recently, so I checked out the Xorg.0.log and found these warnings I believe everything starts with:

# cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log|grep WW
        (WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.
(WW) Open ACPI failed (/var/run/acpid.socket) (No such file or directory)

Perhaps I killed the V_BIOS via 915resolution:

# 915resolution -l

Can anyone help me?

PS: This is my first question in this mailing list, so if I've done anything wrong, tell me. I promise I'll do better next time ;)
