Hi all.

I just installed centOS 5 on a new pc and everything works very well, apart the video driver that is not recognized by X and so I get no graphics hardware acceleration (glxgears is very unresponsive).

lspci reports: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09)

while Xorg.0.log reads: (--) PCI:*(0:2:0) Intel Corporation unknown chipset (0x0102) rev 9, Mem @ 0xe0c00000/22, 0xd0000000/28, I/O @ 0x3000/6

I've been searching for an rpm for adding the right driver with no success.

Could anybody try to help me out, please? Thank you. Robi

No idea how to solve this problem, other than recommending you to upgrade to Centos 6 which has support out of the box for this.

I'd love to.. but the pc will be used for running a software that is well known to run well on CentOS 5.. but if I will not find another solution, then I may be forced to try it on CentOS 6..

Any more hints, please? Thank you. Robi

Is this a common software package or something home-grown? Maybe someone can give advice about any problems you might see on CentOS 6.

That's a good idea. The software is Cadence + a few 3rd packages added.. it all was first installed on February 2010.. Anybody has every run it on CentOS 6 ?

Thank you! Robi
