I was successful in getting X to start in 1024x768x8, but not higher. I've read that others have been able to get 1024x768x24, and I hope someone on this list might be able to help me out. My xf86config: http://catacus.com/~catz/docs/help/vesa_xf86config Log: http://catacus.com/~catz/docs/help/XFree86.0_log I did notice this entry in the log file: Total Memory: 13 64Kb banks (0M) What do I need to do to get X to see more memory? I've patched both i810_drv.o & agpreg.h w/ the i810diff & i810diff-2 patches. Here's the output from dmesg: http://catacus.com/~catz/docs/help/dmesg What am I missing? Any help is appreciated.
