So I got Mandrake 7.0 up and running, finally (after some Compaq
generated difficulties), but right now my screen resolution is
extremely low since I had to select Generic VGA for a vid card. I have
an integrated motherboard, an Intel 810, which uses an Intel 810
Chipset Graphics driver.

So, initially, I thought I was going to have to get a supported video
card, but then I found a driver for my cheesy 810 thatll make it work
at http://www.precisioninsight.com (more specifically at
ftp://ftp.precisioninsight.com/pub/pi/XFCom/). So I download the
readme, and with the exception of no 32bpp support (I generally use 16
anyways), it looks pretty good. So, the next step is the instructions,
which are at
http://support.intel.com/support/graphics/intel810/linuxinstal.htm

And for me, thats where the bottom falls out. I can't make heads or
tails out of it. I'm not sure if Im supposed to just install the
driver RPM, or if Im supposed to do that, install something else and
download and install another Xserver. If someone else is familiar with
how to do this (or wouldnt mind taking a look at the instruction
page), and could walk me through it, I'd be highly appreciative.

Thanks!

peace,
