I've just installed CentOS version 5 on a laptop Acer ASPIRE 5920.
I suspect that laptop has one of the "really new" Intel graphic chipsets. This isn't a bad thing, but the path of least resistance would be to install Fedora 8 or 9 on it instead of Centos for the time being, as Fedora will have the newer Intel video drivers that should support your chipset.
You are right, the CentOS version 5 does not support the video driver of the Intel graphic chipset. The FC9 works fine. Now the question is where can I download video driver for CentOS 5? Or, is there anything I can do to work around to resolve this problem? I have to use this version of CentOS which our development was based on.
Thank you.
Kind Regards,
