I too am having i810 m/b with samsung monitor. Initially it was very very
tough to get X up. I shall tell you what I did.
First, install all packages for X, mostly done during installation itself.
Now run xf86config, and select VGA-16. Then startx, see if X comes up,
It should, but with an ugly resolution & color. What you need is SVGA server,
but if you select SVGA during xf86config, and then run startx, it wont
come up. Now the real trouble. Two things I did:
1. Compile 2.4.x kernel, and install it. Boot through 2.4.x kernel.
2. Then, (I had previously downloaded .tgz files of XFree96 V 4.0)
install the X 4.0 packages. They will overwrite all your X 3.3.x
files.
3. Now again xf86config, select SVGA server, then startx. VIOLA - All
The beauty of X + wmaker. ;-)
Correct me if I had done something silly. ;-)
