i810 video and Debian 3.0
I recently installed version 3.0 of Debian on a Dell GX110, which has a
built-in video adaptor based on the Intel i810 controller. I set up Xfree86
during installation from Debian packages, but it fails to start due to a
missing agpgart module. I looked at the source distributions for XFree86
and the agpgart module doesn't appear to be in the 4.x distribution, and
the file in the 3.x distribution doesn't support the v2.4 Linux kernel.
If I have to, I can install a video card in a PCI slot and override the
built-in hardware, but I'd prefer not to spend the money or disturb the
Win2K installation that the computer dual-boots. Any recommendations on how
I can get X to work with my existing hardware?
Thanks.
