I have been unable to get X to start successfully.
Hopefully I am overlooking something stupid.
FreeBSD 4.6.2 on an Intel machine
My graphics card is an Intel 82845G/GL. I searched
for info on the Intel site and it mentioned that this
card is in the i810 class.
From my XF86Config file:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Card0"
Driver "i810"
Chipset "i810"
Card "Intel i810"
End Section
I have added the agp_load="YES" line to
/boot/loader.conf and /dev/agpgart exists.
'startx' returns the following:
--------------------------------
(EE) GARTInit: Unable to open /dev/agpgart (Device not
configured)
(EE) I810(0): AGP GART support is not available. Make
sure your kernel has agpgart support or that the
agpgart kernel module is loaded.
(EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable
configuration.
Fatal server error:
no screens found
<snip>
X connection to :0.0 broken (explicit kill or server
shutdown)
xauth: creating new authority file /root/.Xauthority
xauth: (argv:1: bad dusplay name in ":0" in "remove"
command
xauth: (argv:1: bad dusplay name in ":0" in "remove"
command
------------------------------------
I really have no idea what to do next. Any help would
be appreciated, the more layman the terms, the better.
Thanks,
Justin
