It's also not the healthiest machine - it may end up failing. Perhaps someone in the states is interested in working on support for this chipset? Gerald?
Hi Urias,I've thought about doing a video driver for the i810 and i815 chips since I do have computers that have these two chips. The thing that kept me from working on a driver for these chips is that AGP GART code has to be implemented to handle the memory for these chips.
I'll take another look at it, and if I decide to do it, it will certainly not be ready for the R1/A3 release.
