Re: 82845G Graphics Controller

There's no 82845G graphics support in any stable version of Debian, nor in
stable version of XFree86. XFree86 4.3.0 will first include support for this
card (in the rewritten i815 driver). But then you have to compile the kernel
wih i830 DRM support.
If you need support now, you must download the develop releases of XFree86
(should be version 4.2.99-xx) and compile it yourself.
Me for myself use 82845GE since yesterday. VESA driver is used by now, with
a maximum resolution of 1024x768@16bit , but it doesn't seem to work over
60Hz (looks awful on a 19" monitor). Maybe I'll try compiling it (as a
test), before reorganizing my computer.
If you have more questions, I'll try to answer them. (you may ask in german
too)

Good luck.
