Description

  Build

X11 Perf

The X11 test suite VSW4 will pass all tests successfully. Although, there are some failures outside the scope of this driver suite and are attributed to the base XFree86 implementation.

dri-I915-v1.1-20041217.i386.rpm

APM

On Grantsdale-G it has been found that enabling 'Repost Video' will bring the system back into a usable state, but due to some changes to registers, the 3D driver fails to restart.
 

If 'Reposting' is disabled the Linux console will not restore correctly and system may hang. Note: Similar issue will occur on 865G.
