Hi,
There is probably something missing for this old chipset in the modern
world. Maybe jsg@ has some idea ?
In the mean time, you can try the old "intel" driver, by creating an
/etc/X11/xorg.conf file containing just:
--- cut here ---
Section "Devicë
Identifier "i945"
Driver "intel"
EndSection
--- cut here
Another option could be to disable the hardware cursor on the
modesetting driver :
--- cut here ---
Section "Devicë
Identifier "i945"
Driver "modesetting"
Option "SWCursor" "on"
EndSection
--- cut here ---
I don't think any of the other options listed in modesetting(4) will
have an impact.
