X server crashes when I fire up "Display" or "Screen Resolution" control panels
...:1) Intel Corporation unknown chipset (0x2a03) rev 12,
Mem @ 0xf8200000/20
Do I need a special video driver?
I checked http://www.linlap.com/wiki/ibm-lenovo+thinkpad+t61 which says
this laptop should work OK with recent Linux distros; and I tried the xorg.conf
mod in http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Installing_Fedora_8_on_a_T61#Graphics
but X crashes when I run xrandr.
I went on the vendor website but there is no driver available - they did have
an NVIDIA driver for SUSE, but my laptop does not have an NVIDIA device
and I am running CentOS, not SUSE!
Help?
Best,
