If so, you could probably use the method suggested by Mario Doria and just load the agp module to get the AGP support you need for the i810 driver. I chose to build it into the kernel, but the module should also be fine, too, if you'd rather not build a new kernel. Then just setup your /etc/X11/XF86Config file with the proper driver (quick and easy way: just run "xf86cfg -textmode") and add the following line (very important!) in the Device section: Option "NoDDC" Should work. It did for me. :-) -- Conrad Sabatier HOW YOU CAN TELL THAT IT'S GOING TO BE A ROTTEN DAY: #15 Your pet rock snaps at you.
