I for one, thank you for all of your hard work, time and dedication. For one person to handle such a mess is, impressive, to say the least. I personally feel there's not enough thanks and praise for all your work. >Intel is on the brink of just not working at all if I don't get at least GEM ported. I'm very sad to hear this, as for now I'm stuck with a vgapci0@pci0:0:2:0: class=0x030000 card=0x25821043 chip=0x25828086 rev=0x04 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Intel Corporation' device = '82915G/GV/GL, 82910GL Integrated Graphics Device' I also have a box with an i810 in it. I can't code/port to save a drowning kitten's life, but if you need a tester, I'd be willing, as long as rolling back to the "working" Xorg is possible, and there's no damage done to the hardware, though I may need a bit of handholding. Robert, feel free to contact me on/off-list (not subscribed, but read daily) if there's anything I can do to help. Thank again for all your work. -- Over the years I've come to regard you as people I've met.
