Greetings,

Bought a dell 2350 ($400 with monitor included) and
have been unable to get any xfree drivers to work on it
including vesafb at any usable resolutions.  I've tried
both 4.2 and 4.3.  At anything higher than 640x480x8
xfree complains "no usable screens found".

I was able install and use intel's own driver for it.
I was suprised to find one for linux.  glx works, dri
doesn't.  The gamma comes up too high and the gamma
plugin for gkrellm doesn't seem to work.

Anyone have an intel 845g based board working with
xfree 4.2 or 4.3 ?

Chris
