This includes the 845G, 855G, and 865G chipsets, as well as 1.6 +915G, 915GM, and 945G chipsets. This modification is necessary to allow the 1.7 +display of certain graphics resolutions for an Xorg or XFree86 graphics server. 1.8 + 1.9 +915resolution's modifications of the BIOS are transient. There is no risk of 1.10 +permanent modification of the BIOS. This also means that 915resolution must be 1.11 +run every time the computer boots inorder for it's changes to take effect. 1.12 + 1.13 +915resolution is derived from the tool 855resolution. However, the code 1.14 +differs substantially. 915resolution's code base is much simpler. 915resolution 1.15 +also allows the modification of bits per pixel.
