Please can any one help here, i'm really getting no where with this.
I've just noticed in /var/log/XFree.log

(EE) GARTInit: Unable o open /dev.agpgart 9No such device)
(EE) I810(0): AGP GART support is not avaliable. Make sure your kernel
has agpgart support ot that the agpgart kernek module is loaded.
<snip>
(EE) Screens(s) found, but none have a usable configuration.

Fatal server error:
no screens found


I'm running the debian kernel 2.6.5-11686, surly this would have agpgart
support in it. I really don't know what I'm doing now, any one with any
other ideas?
Cheers
James
