Description Carlos Martín 2007-12-15 17:52:25 UTC
Description of problem:
E7221 graphics controller is a refurbised version of i915 graphics controller
bat with a different IG (0x258A) and diferrent HB (0x2588) Support it it's
trivial. There's no AGPGART support to this chipset currently so DRM doesn't
work and intel driver fails with X.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
All 


Additional info:
There are other packages involved in full E7221 support.

DRM and AGPGART patches works for me on a supermicro P8SCT motherboard, and X
configured with intel driver. i810 Drivers also works but not so well.

Comment 6 Adam Jackson 2008-02-21 18:14:45 UTC
This is included in current kernel builds.  Closing.

Hi,
the RHEL5.2 release notes will be dropped to translation on April 15, 2008, at
which point no further additions or revisions will be entertained.

a mockup of the RHEL5.2 release notes can be viewed at the following link:
http://intranet.corp.redhat.com/ic/intranet/RHEL5u2relnotesmockup.html

please use the aforementioned link to verify if your bugzilla is already in the
release notes (if it needs to be). each item in the release notes contains a
link to its original bug; as such, you can search through the release notes by
bug number.

Cheers,
Don
