I've pushed driver fixes for this to master in patch:

d655a3ff423e69c19a5dc07140cbf3caaa32cb86 Remove NoAccel support.

There's an associated fix necessary in the kernel to bump the framebuffer limit
from 2048 to 4096 for KMS which should land shortly.

I've seen the kernel fix in drm-intel-next:
drm/i915: Allow frame buffers up to 4096x4096 on 915/945 class hardware

And verified 945GM works with the fixes for both KMS and UMS.


In xf86-video-intel it should be fixed.
But xorg-edgers does not have the fix in repository.

I'm too lame still to compile my own kernel, so would here be some good
soul to update kernel in xorg-edgers? :)
