[Intel-gfx] frame buffer compression and 915GM

[SD]

OK, thank you. I checked it, and I got unexpected answer -

FBC unsupported on this chipset.


But on my old OpenSuse:

X.Org X Server 1.5.2
Release Date: 10 October 2008
X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0
Build Operating System: openSUSE SUSE LINUX
Current Operating System: Linux linux-xmc2 2.6.27.45-0.1-pae #1 SMP 2010-02-22 16:49:47 +0100 i686
Build Date: 22 September 2010  11:23:20AM
...

(**) intel(0): Option "FramebufferCompression" "on"
...
(**) intel(0): Framebuffer compression enabled
...

As you can see - It was supported 3 years ago.

I would like to know why now FBC becomes unsupported ?

Thank you.
