Hi all,

I'm trying to the the $Subject laptop up and running using the built-in
Intel graphics chip:

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller (rev 09) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
	Subsystem: Apple Inc. Device 00f7
	Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 53
	Memory at c1400000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4M]
	Memory at b0000000 (64-bit, prefetchable) [size=256M]
	I/O ports at 3000 [size=64]
	Expansion ROM at <unassigned> [disabled]
	Capabilities: [90] MSI: Enable+ Count=1/1 Maskable- 64bit-
	Capabilities: [d0] Power Management version 2
	Capabilities: [a4] PCI Advanced Features
	Kernel driver in use: i915

And it seems that the xorg Intel driver just doesn't recognize it at
all.

Below is my Xorg.0.log file.  I'm using a 3.5.0 kernel (with a few minor
hardware patches for other bits of this laptop that don't work with
3.5.0, but no changes to the graphics drivers.)

Any ideas or patches I can try out?

thanks,

greg k-h
