Intel Graphics Media Accelerator X3100

Intel Graphics Media Accelerator X3100 This is an Intel video adapter Features Integrated into the following chipsets: Intel 965 PCI ID: 8086:2A02 Uses part of main memory for video usage

Linux X.Org driver

Supported by Xorg [1]. The driver supports hardware accelerated 3D via the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI), but only in depths 16 and 24.

Version 2.1.1 of the driver fixes a TV output problem. Use xrandr to view the enabled screens in X.

Linux Intel driver

There is a Graphics driver for the Mobile Intel 965 Express Chipset Family at Intels Support Site. This driver is just a snapshot of the Xorg/XFree86 driver.

ThinkPad LCD

Display on the internal LCD works as long as you set the monitor settings correct.

External VGA port

Works. Dualhead is supported.

There are two options for running the external VGA port - either as a copy of the LCD (clone) or as a separate workspace. Here is an example for the separate workspace mode for xorg.conf for the X60s:

    * Be warned that making the following changes to xorg.conf on an X61 with the Intel 465 chipset           kills x and must be removed to regain a graphical display.

Suspend behaviour

• Required kernel parameters for suspend to ram: none

Nevertheless, you may get a blank screen on resume (for example on T61 with Ubuntu Gutsy). See launchpad bug for details.
