Hello,

I'd like to use the fb on my (quite) new dell optiplex sx280 computer
but the nvidiafb does not work (can't claim fb mem region)

lspci -v tells me that my controler is a intel 82915G.
looking into /sys/bus/pci I found that the device ID for my card is 0x2782
=> so I checked in kernel sources (driver/video/intelfb/intelfb.h) and
I noticed that my device ID is not supported
in the sources Intel 915G is device ID 0x2582
I guess my intel 915G is a new kind of 915G with slightly different
caracteristics.

If the adaptation to my card is not too hard to do I'd be happy to do
it but I will need some explanations

Gildas
