hi there
thanks for all the help. i found some thing else also to getrid of this
810 problem for people like me those who use stable potato and
2.2.xx. ok, there are unofficial binary debs for xfree86
http://people.debian.org/~cpbotha/
after installing these xfrees agpgart can be compiled and installed from
any of the sources .
now my X is running fine 800x600 16bpp
i am really looking for few quick articles for debian installation
and apt-get and not the long documentation.
