  • Usage of /etc/modprobe.conf file was deprecated by module-init-tools and
    is no longer parsed by new kmod tool. References to this file are
    replaced in Documentation, comments and Kconfig according to the
    context.

    There are also some references to the old /etc/modules.conf from 2.4
    kernels that are being removed.

  • Add support for Intel's 945GME graphics chip to the intelfb driver. I
    have assumed that the 945GME is identical to the already-supported 945GM
    apart from its PCI IDs; this is based on a quick look at the X driver for
    these chips which seems to treat them identically.

    The 945GME is used in the ASUS Eee 901, and I coded this in the hope that
    I'd be able to use it to get a console at the native 1024x600 resolution
    which is not known to the BIOS. I realised too late that the intelfb
    driver does not support mode changing on laptops, so it won't be any
    use for me.

  • Add support for the 965G and 965GM graphic chipsets to the intelfb driver. I
    have a notebook with an Intel Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics
    Controller and with the attached patch the framebuffer comes up. I have
    tested it a bit with DirectFB to make sure it is working stable.

    I also have an Intel Mobile GM945 and I compared the results, the programming
    interface of the 9xx series from Intel is mostly the same, so I think the
    patch should add all the functionality which the 945GM has.

  • According to drivers/video/intelfb/intelfb.h, the intelfb driver
    supportes the following devices:
    830M/845G/852GM/855GM/865G/915G/915GM/945G/945GM. So the description in
    drivers/video/Kconfig and the documentation in
    Documentation/fb/intelfb.txt is outdated.

    airlied: cleaned up some other obvious mistakes in intelfb.txt.
