It is possible that the problems I had on Debian with Zgv/Svgalib _were_
because of the i810 chip. It would crash, sometimes, when I exited Zgv and
that crash
was video-monitor related. A lot of other people had the same problem,
though, and I doubt that they all used a chipset from that family.

Of course, with any box that came with one of those chipsets, X
will run just fine and you wouldn't _need_ Svgalib.

About the Xi810 server. Like Xvesa and all of the other kdrive servers,
it is configured via commandline options and arguments and ignores
Xorg or XFree86 config files.

I'm using this startx on my glibc2 BL3:

#!/bin/sh

xinit -- /usr/X11R6/bin/Xi810 -screen 800x600x32 -3button -ac bc -terminate

/quote

The ~/.xinitrc and ~/.Xdefaults are similar to those for Xvesa/sWM, too.
