not supported in stock potato but you can download the
xfree 3.3.6 source and compile the agpgart module from it
(last time i tried the kernel module wasnt compadible with
xfree 3.3.6) and run XF86_SVGA(from potato) as your X server.
i had i810 running under both slink(debian 2.1) and potato(2.2)
about a year ago. since then i haven't touched that chipset.
can't comment on xfree86 4 as i haven't used it much yet ....
i imagine if its listed on xfree86.org it is supported you
probably have to compile the agpgart module for it though
