Xorg and Intel 945G problem

["David A. Parker" <dparker@utica.edu>]

Hello,

I have a Dell GX620 with an integrated Intel 945G graphics chipset, and 
I am attempting to run Debian sid amd64 on it.  I used 'X -configure' to 
create an xorg.conf file, in which it creates the following "Device" 
section:

Section "Device"
        ### Available Driver options are:-
        ### Values: <i>: integer, <f>: float, <bool>: "True"/"False",
        ### <string>: "String", <freq>: "<f> Hz/kHz/MHz"
        ### [arg]: arg optional
        #Option     "NoAccel"                   # [<bool>]
        #Option     "SWcursor"                  # [<bool>]
        #Option     "ColorKey"                  # <i>
        #Option     "CacheLines"                # <i>
        #Option     "Dac6Bit"                   # [<bool>]
        #Option     "DRI"                       # [<bool>]
        #Option     "NoDDC"                     # [<bool>]
        #Option     "ShowCache"                 # [<bool>]
        #Option     "XvMCSurfaces"              # <i>
        #Option     "PageFlip"                  # [<bool>]
        Identifier  "Card0"
        Driver      "i810"
        VendorName  "Intel Corporation"
        BoardName   "945G Integrated Graphics Controller"
        BusID       "PCI:0:2:0"
EndSection

However, when I try to start X using this configuration, I get the 
following message and it dies:

(WW) I810: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:0:2:1) found

Googling on this has revealed a variety of issues, but most of them did 
not appear to be the cause of this.  What seems to be causing this is 
the fact that the onboard display is apparently divided into two 
distinct devices:

ip-3-1-216:~# lspci | grep 'Graphics'
0000:00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 945G/P PCI Express Graphics 
Port (rev 02)
0000:00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 945G 
Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)
0000:00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation 945G Integrated 
Graphics Controller (rev 02)

I tried adding a second "Device" section to the config file and changing 
the bus to "PCI:0:2:1" but the result is still the same.

When I was using etch, Xorg worked just fine.  I upgraded to sid so I 
could install KDE, and that's when Xorg broke.  Does anyone have any 
ideas about how this can be solved?

    Thanks!
    Dave
