My card is i945GM.

I've compiled 1.6.0 (10 April) version of this driver on FC5. The progress is 
that now X server works with Driver "i810" (on 'vanilla' FC5 it worked only 
on "vesa"). But:
1. I still have to use 915resolution patch in order to get resolution "native" 
for my LCD
2. Acceleration doesn't work, invoking 'glxgears' results in:

<code>
ERROR!  sizeof(I830DRIRec) does not match passed size from device driver
libGL warning: 3D driver returned no fbconfigs.
libGL error: InitDriver failed
libGL error: reverting to (slow) indirect rendering
XIO:  fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset by peer) on X server ":0.0"
      after 842 requests (43 known processed) with 0 events remaining.
</code>


I would be hapy to help in getting it work properly :)
