Hi,
Please feel free to shoot me down, if it's necessary.
I believe i've found the problem to the i945GM crashing on startup. I
*believe* that the GTT_BASE address has changed from 0x10000 to 0x1c.
I've created a patch that:
~ Adds IDs for i915 based chipsets. They are commented out, however.
(Makes testing easier). This only includes 915/945.
~ Added a switch for i915 based chipsets in determine_stolen_memory_size().
~ Defined "INTEL_GTT_BASE_I915". As stated above.
~ Added an if statement to set_gtt_entry, now (depending on the
chipset) the correct GTT_BASE is used. Is this the way you want it
handled?
There are still some unknown problems, and i'm assuming testing is
needed -- (That's why the IDs have been commented out):
- The hardware cursor doesn't work. It simply enough doesn't display
on the screen.
- The black lines exist.
Like i said above, if you feel it's necessary shoot me down...

Thank You
