Hi, I found out that if I 'modprobe i810' before executing 'startx', then the xserver actually starts normally. (I guess in (2) of my bug report, I didn't choose the right set of modules.)
However all the issues mentioned in this report still stand. In particular the xserver shouldn't crash that badly because of a missing kernel module. I'm not sure which package's fault this is, though. HTH, Harald -- If you want to support my work: see http://friends.ccbib.org/harald/supporting/
