Just download the lastest here:

I was able to use the binary without any issues. I added this to my /etc/init.d/xdm
Code:

/opt/extras/915resolution-0.5.2/915resolution 5c 1920 1200

How about hibernate/standby with suspend2? I have hibernate working but only for the console, X fails to restart. I haven't tracked down the exact error messages yet, I'll try that when i have some time. Standby (hibernate-ram) tries to resume then the laptop just shuts off. I'll post more detail asap but i'm just wondering if anyone has come across a config that works with this chipset. I realize BIOS, ACPI support, etc all make a difference but i think it is the video card which is not co-operating.

EDIT -- ok, i figured this out. Since i'm using 855resolution to insert a non-standard video mode into the video BIOS that needs to be done on each resume. Simply adding 855resolution to the list of services to restart isn't enough because X tries to start before this. Adding a OnResume command does the trick: OnResume 86 855resolution 5c 1280 800
Also, EnableVbetool needs to be set to no (or maybe just commented out). Since the more recent version of hibernate-script have seperate config files (common, suspend2, ram) you need to make sure EnableVbetool is disabled in all the config files. suspend to disk and ram now work perfectly :)

Has anyone gotten the sound to work on a i945pm? If so what did you enable in the kernel, I can't seem to get it to work with the 2.6.16. I've tryed enabling some intel ALSA stuff, but nothing is working.

thanks for the input on the i915 drm from freedesktop.org
yet another thing to tick off in my "not working" list :)

Hmm.. does anyone know if by now this has been, or if not, when it will be included in the kernel?
