2008-10-16intelfb: support 945GME (as used in ASUS Eee 901)Phil Endecott
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.

2008-04-28fbdev: intelfb: add support for the Intel Integrated Graphics Controller ↵Maik Broemme
965G/965GM 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 So the description in drivers/video/Kconfig and the documentation in Documentation/fb/intelfb.txt is outdated.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.
