hi ya glenn..
what kind of i180 testing are you doing/planning todo ???
if get X11 up and running...for i810 or i815 chip sets...
w/ XFree-3.3.x you do need that agpgart and XFCom_i810 driver
w/ XFree-4.x i think it works out of the box....
5 minutes work or so to get X11 up and about...
what out for /etc/X11/X and /usr/X11R6/bin/X
( make sure it points to the right places )
have not tested under debian...but works okay/reasonable on
the other guys boxes..
have fun
