Subject: Any intelfb support for 945GME chip id 8086:27ae, used in Eee 901 ?

Hi All,

My new ASUS Eee 901 claims to have:

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GME
Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)
00:02.0 0300: 8086:27ae

As far as I can see there is not yet any support for this chip, though
the 945GM (no E on the end) with id 8086:27a2 is supported.

Is someone working on this? I suppose there's a good chance that the
differences are small or trivial.

Where does development of the intelfb driver happen? I have found
David Airlie's intelfb git tree at kernel.org, but it doesn't seem to
have been updated for a while.


Thanks for any suggestions.

Phil.
