I'm having problems starting X on my new DELL Dimension E520 desktop. It has
an Intel G965 Express Chipset (with ICH8 SATA I/O controller, PCI Express,
etc.). I have recently installed FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE on this machine
(although the SATA DVD drive is not supported by FreeBSD yet) and have
installed the latest X.org 7.2 using pkg_add.
When I start X, I get the following error message:

----------

Markers: (--) probed, (**) from config file, (==) default setting, (++) from
command line, (!!) notice, (II) informational, (WW) warning, (EE) error,
(NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.
(==) Log file: "/var/log/Xorg.0.log", Time: Mon May 23 15:11:36 2007
(WW) I810: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:0:2:1) found
(EE) GARTInit: Unable to open /dev/agpgart (No such file or directory)
(EE) I810(0): Failed to allocate framebuffer. Is your VideoRAM set too low
??

Fatal server error:
AddScreen/ScreenInit failed for driver 0

Here are my Xorg.0.log and xorg.conf (automatically generated by xorgcfg):

Xorg.0.log : http://www.divshare.com/download/727706-dc0
xorg.conf   : http://www.divshare.com/download/727709-b25

As far as I could find out by googling, FreeBSD cannot use this device
because the i810 X.org driver looks for AGP devices and this is not one. Is
this true? Any ideas on how to fix this?
