Hello all:

I was using an IBM with an ATI card. I managed to configure xfree-drm in it. Now I have a Toshiba A40 and it comes with a display controller Intel 852GME. (http://www.intel.com/design/chipsets/embedded/852gme.htm)

I don't know much about hardware and would like you to tell me what kind of driver is the appropriate one for Linux (I had to configure XFree running xf86config utility and selected i810 --just because it said intel on it--, but I'm not sure)

Even though I get the display OK, I get no DRM. Is DRM for all chips or not?

Sorry for this basic question.

Kernel
<*> /dev/agpgart (AGP Support)
<*> Intel 440LX/BX/GX, I8xx and E7x05 chipset support

[*] Direct Rendering Manager (XFree86 4.1.0 and higher DRI support)
<*> Intel 830M, 845G, 852GM, 855GM, 865G

XF86Config
Section "DRI"
Mode 0666
EndSection
Section Modules
<...>
Load "dri"
Load "glx"
EndSection


...

It _should_ do it.

Thanks for the tip, but in the documentation for desktop setup they had the "Direct Rendering Manager" turned off like this,

Code:

Processor type and features --->
<*> MTRR (Memory Type Range Register) support
Character devices --->
<M> /dev/agpgart (AGP Support)
[*] Intel 440LX/BX/GX and I815/I820/I830M/I830MP/I840/I845/I850/I860 support
// Enable your chipset instead of the above.
[ ] Direct Rendering Manager (XFree86 DRI support)


However, I'll turn it on and see what happens.
