Regarding this i815, at least for me, I am referring to the Intel mainboard with the i815 AGPset chipset. This graphics sucks up your SDRAM for its video memory. The board also includes a builtin audio chip. Given the 700/750Mhz processor, the audio+video have to be cheaply engineered...but X does work with Xfree 4.1.N. > > I have now added an old graphics card and reinstalled 3.3.6, and now X is > up and running.
