 My Acer 7750 laptop - simply refuses to load the Intel Extreme driver.
 It always boots with the VESA driver, and denies me the high resolution I
 expect.

 'listdev' shows the following - so I know the 'Intel Extreme' is there.



 {{{
 device Display controller (VGA compatible controller, VGA controller)
 [3|0|0]
   vendor 8086: Intel Corporation
   device 0116: 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics
 Controller
 }}}



 In the Syslog file - the intel_extreme driver stops after the message:
 "error: could not map GART aperture!"

 I am attaching the lisdev and syslog files.

 I have tried to research this - and it seems similar to the very old
 ticket #1969

 I tested this with a GCC4 compile of hrev 45814.
 On a ACER 7750 laptop  (i7, HD3000).
