## Intel

### i855

Works perfectly with `xf86-video-intel`

### 915

Works perfectly with `xf86-video-intel-2.0`. Compositing works fine.

### i945

Works flawlessly with `xf86-video-intel-2.0` and `xorg-server-1.3` (be sure to use `intel` as driver in `xorg.conf`, or do not use `xorg.conf` at all). Native resolution (1440x900) automatically detected by driver eliminating the need for `915resolution`. `Compiz-Fusion` runs without a hitch, resuming from suspend/hibernate may cause the background not to render properly, but this is easily fixed by rotating the cube.

### 945GM

Works perfectly with `xf86-video-intel-2.10`. About 1800fps.

### x3100/GM965

Works with `xf86-video-intel-2.0`.

## NVIDIA
