please try again with the i810 driver and send the output of
/var/log/XFree86.0.log to this bug. Also, the output of lspci would be
interesting.
Please note: there is no i830 driver, but you' probably need need to
load the i830 kernel DRI module (+ agpgart ).

probably won't have the i830 module, because it's simply to old. Upgrade
to a newer kernel.
