For shame, it works just lovely with the Vesa Fbdev running (hell, thats what we are running here right this very minute). It goes upto 1024x768 at 16bit (the size cant go higher due to LCD constraints, but the colours could go up as long as you plummed for the 8mb option).
If you need more information on how to get it configured properly, read the documentation on the kernel source, failing that, go to the linux laptop page and click on the i7k page.
Still cant get the oss modules to properly detect the i7k's maestro chip (Ess - 2). Yes it finds the soundcard, just hangs when probing. Damnable code does hard irq probing. *sigh* aff well, cant have everything.

yeah. nice comment.
the dell i7k is a laptop and only comes
with that one card. If you want a i7k
(and its a VERY nice machine) then you
cant do that.
ordinarily, yes, otherwise, no.

Your not running Linux on your dell i7k ?!
