Just recently bought a Dell E6410 with a Intel? HD Graphics with ExpressCard with I7-640m processor. Having some issues getting a graphical env to work. By just the looks of lspci X is wanting to use the VGA Compatable controller: Intel Corp Core Processor Intergrated graphics controller. Everything else is using Intel Corp Series 5/3400 Series Chipset. Has anyone else had any luck getting similar intel onboard grphics to work? -- Bo Lynch

Useful would be -- I have checked the bug tracker and this seems like bug ____ ... A lspci -v is ... I see that upstream , there is bugzilla ___ and I have followed the debugging protocol for this card outlined several times there -- Russ herrold

The graphics is in the CPU chip because the memory controller is also in the CPU chip. I believe it uses the IGDNG driver, not i810 or whatever. I have no idea how well CentOS supports this, you might have better luck on that laptop with Fedora Latest.
