Hi,

I'm not sure, but could it be Steve Tomljenovic [stomljen at yahoo.com].
He maintains/maintained 915resolution and if I recall correctly may have
also helped/mainted/maintains the i810 / i915 driver...

Either way, he might know.

Btw, I have a laptop with a GMA950. It can just run XGL though since it
is a 128 MB shared card a lot of the processing seems to go into the cpu
and this slows down everything. I guess if I turned off some of XGL's
overkill features things might run smoother and not be so demanding.

Cheers.

-Pascal
