+915resolution is a tool to modify the video BIOS of the 800 and 900 series Intel
+graphics chipsets. This includes the 845G, 855G, and 865G chipsets, as well as
+915G, 915GM, and 945G chipsets. This modification is neccessary to allow the
+display of certain graphics resolutions for an Xorg or XFree86 graphics server.
+
+915resolution's modifications of the BIOS are transient. There is no risk of
+permanent modification of the BIOS. This also means that 915resolution must be
+run every time the computer boots inorder for it's changes to take effect.
