Intel 945GM chip on Dell D620

[Peter Robinson]

I've had no luck what so ever getting the latest rawhide driver (the
modesetting one) running on rawhide. I'm running at the moment on a
stretched 1024x768 on my 1440x900 screen.

There's a bug here to track issues with the new driver.

One of the X guys was going to be doing some work on it at OLS or
somewhere in the coming week but I can't remember who and can't find
the list post.
