I think you are talkin' about FB (Frame Buffer) drivers for i810. You dont need i810FB drivers in order to have XOrg working (even with dri). FB it's just for console things (like having a nice background in your ttys). But you dont want to have i810FB; it's really experimental and causes lock ups, and you will see weird lines in your consoles, so its better dont have it activated. > -- > [email protected] mailing list > -- 42 -- [email protected] mailing list
