Alvin, Yes, it's on the motherboard. I tried the Intel software with XFree86 3.3.6 and couldn't get it to work. I had to force the loading of agpgart, then got an error, I think it was 'AGP-ACQUIRE'. So I went to XFree 4.01. Now I'm getting output, but as I explained, too many xterms and everything frozen. So it seems to me to be a configuration problem. I have played with the modeline, HR and the h-syncs - no help.
Can anybody help? Should I go back to 3.3.6 and try Brandens debs? Or just flush the idea of using i810 and buy a video card? Thanks in advance for any advice.
