# simple "get it going" instructions
Source100:      README.fedora

%description
915resolution is a tool to modify the video BIOS of the 800 and 900 series
Intel graphics chipsets. This includes the 845G, 855G, and 865G chipsets, as
well as 915G, 915GM, and 945G chipsets. This modification is necessary to
allow the display of certain graphics resolutions for an Xorg or XFree86
graphics server.

915resolution's modifications of the BIOS are transient. There is no risk of
permanent modification of the BIOS. This also means that 915resolution must be
run every time the computer boots inorder for it's changes to take effect.

915resolution is derived from the tool 855resolution. However, the code
differs substantially. 915resolution's code base is much simpler.
915resolution also allows the modification of bits per pixel.

--- NEW FILE README.fedora ---
Some simple instructions on getting this going under Fedora Core.

It's important to note that the invocation of this program needs to be done
at least once, at boot, to install the correct values in the video BIOS's RAM
copy.  Executing 915resolution requires root privs.

Note that the intel xorg drivers are supposed to deal with displaying to
non-bios modes "real soon now"; hence this setup technique.

1.  Read README.txt, in this directory...  Figure out the proper invocation of
    the binary for your hardware.
2.  Edit /etc/rc.local.  Include as a line in that file a call to
    915resolution; a la: 

        /usr/sbin/915resolution ....

    Where .... is the proper parameters to pass 915resolution.
