Is there any way for Centos to support this graphics controller? Im using centos 4.4 and the latest yum update was only xorg-6.8.2 Thanks!

Ok, I'll re-phrase the question :) How do I install X11R7.1 on Centos 4.4?
This will be more pain than you want probably to deal with. Serious, serious pain. I'd suggest either 1) installing Fedora Core 6 or 2) running in Vesa mode until CentOS 5 is out.

According to "system-config-display" there is a driver for the 945 available, at least it shows up in the hardware list of "system-config-display".

Thanks, but it did not work in my case. The error is:
(WW) I810: No matching device section for instance (BusID PCI:0:2:1) found (EE) No devices detected
only vesa driver is working.
After googling it supported by X11R6.9 and up.
Hardware: Thinkpad T60 Thanks

You could try adding PCI:0:2:1 to the device section of /etc/X11/xorg.conf and see if that works ... it may cause X to lock up if the I810 driver is not compatible with the device.

I was thinking I shot this off too fast ... you probably could make your Device section of your xorg.conf look like the following...
Section "Device" Identifier "945GM Video" Driver "i810" BusID "PCI:0:2:1" EndSection
