I noticed that the README.i910 file is in the XF 3.3.6 distribution as well. I thought that the Xserver for the i810 would run in XF336 as long as I loaded a file with the kernel. I have been unsuccessful finding instructions and the agpgart.o files for FreeBSD, so I suspect that the information was predictive and the files never made it into the distribution. Does Ruslan's comment mean that support for the i810 is being added now? Will I need to download and build XFree86 4.0 for my machine, or will binaries be available? Will I need to add the kernel files (agpgart.o)? I'm a newbie at this...
