Hi there,

You need one patch for the 1600x900 panel (its on this list somewhere ;)
and Adam has a patch for the 1920x1080 panel.

Actually Adam recently found out that with GRUB-1 seemingly you don't
need any patch:
	https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29141#c45
Did not have time yet to try this as well. Anyway for Adam and me GRUB-1
would be only a intermediate solution.

Hopefully end of next week there will be a patch for the drm/i915
modules to work with the 1600 AND the 1920 panel (he gets a 1600 panel,
but Adam and I will nag him with the 1920 panel ;)).

Knuth

P.S.: ... I would also appreciate some feedback on my gpm related question:

Thanks!
