IIRC 810 doesnt have any video ram of it's own - you have to assign it ram from the standard ram in your BIOS. The desktop configured at my parent's place has 810 with 8MB video RAM assigned. The first thing to do would be to go into your BIOS and check how much has been assigned as video RAM. Another way of finding it out is to cat /proc/meminfo and see how much is visible to the OS. Assuming you know how much is installed in your PC the difference would go to the video RAM. The next problem is your graphics card hasnt been detected at all. I wonder which version of X you are running. If in doubt try any of the latest RedHat 7.x / Mandrake 8.x /Suse 7.x ?? and see whether they can find your graphics card - I dont know about Debian. 64Kb is the VGA ram which is available in all PC's. Without it even your BIOS wouldnt be able to display it's logo.
