Matthew Garrett reports that -intel does not support chipsets older than 855. "Before 855, it's possible to attach basically arbitrary LVDS encoders to the chipset - the BIOS knows how to talk to them, but -intel doesn't use the BIOS so needs to have code for each of them individually. As far as I know, the entire set isn't currently supported."

So if this is the case, we need to know if -i810 should be retained permanently for use with older chipsets, or if there are any plans/efforts to incorporate the code into -intel.
