Hi all,

Hi
I upgraded from 2.4.17 to 2.4.19, and it works except for that when I
log out from Gnome the kernel cannot manage to restart the X server. It
looks to be a problem with the i810 chip support. I have tried different
compile combinations, but none seem to help.
Have other also experienced this?

but nether the keyboard nor the built in pointing devices work. The USB

dri comes with x-window-system. I don't understand why you are having
troubles unless you are using an unsupported card.
