Re: Problems with Xorg video



Florian,

I made some progress, but I am beginnning to believe that I have put myself in 
a world of hurt. 

I got past not finding the i810 card by inserting the correct bus address (see 
below). But now it complains that I am missing module i915. So, I think I 
made a big mistake installing xorg! I should have gone to the dentist for a 
root canal (without novacaine) instead of mucking with my computer! ;-)

My version of sarge probably does not support xorg, so I should be using 
xfree86. How do I remove all the X stuff and start over again and install 
xfree86. I am using kernel 2.6.8-2-386. THanks!
