The documentation does mention support of i810e boards, but in practice XFree86 3.3.6 (available with Potato) does not support the board - or rather I couldn't do it - even after adding the agpgart module. I tried configuring X using xf86config - the list of supported boards doesn't contain i810 - but no go. I finally managed to start X using generic VGA drivers, which displayed a rather crude X window. I'd XFree86 4.0.2 binary with me, so installed it and upon starting X got the error message: AddScreen/ScreenInit failed on device 0 What could be wrong? As a matter of fact I'd configured X succesfully on the same board, but using RedHat, while this is Debian Potato. Finally I switched over to vesa drivers, and got good clear X. If that didn't work, I was planning to follow Neale's advice and download those packs. -- Cordially, Ajay Shankar P.S: I'm not an Xpert!
