I used the i810gtt-0.2-4.src.rpm and xfcom_i810-1.2-3.i386.rpm files from http://www.intel.com. Then I rpm -U i810gtt and alien xfcom_i810. Going to /usr/src/redhat/SOURCE I rebuild agpgart.o for my running kernel, insmod it, and then dpkg -i xfcom's deb I just "alienated". I maked sure /etc/X11/X pointed to /usr/X11/bin/XFCom_i810 and ran xf86config to reconfigure my /etc/X11/XF86Config-4. I reviewed the file, and startx worked at last!
I don't know if this could work for you, but here it did. I can send you the files if you like to. peter wrote: > > hi there !! > > im recently trying to run an xserver on a "fuckin" (sorry) i810 intel board... > all those on-board stuff sucks... but anyways... > > im running potato with a new 2.4.1 kernel ( i also got the new modutils and > stuff and all works fine )... > on the xfree site they say to run the server with the i810 chipset i would > need a "agpgart.o" - module that comes with the server !?! > i cant find it anywhere... i got one compiled with the kernel and modprobe > loads it, but still the server wont start... > > heres what it said => > > XF86Config: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XF86Config > (**) stands for supplied, (--) stands for probed/default values > (**) XKB: keymap: "xfree86(de)" (overrides other XKB settings) > (**) Mouse: type: PS/2, device: /dev/psaux, buttons: 3 > (**) Mouse: 3 button emulation (timeout: 50ms) > (**) SVGA: Graphics device ID: "i810" > (**) SVGA: Monitor ID: "My Monitor" > (--) SVGA: Mode "1280x1024" needs hsync freq of 64.25 kHz.
