* i810 video
* using vmlinuz/initrd.img from images/pxeboot
* tree http://testing.fedora.redhat.com/tree/i386/os/

trying a GUI install falls back to TUI using i810 graphics ...
Comment 1 Brock Organ 2004-10-27 23:01:18 UTC 
X works in the post-install system from this test tree, though ...
Comment 2 Brock Organ 2004-10-27 23:02:56 UTC 
i810 graphics lspci IDs are:

8086:7122
8086:7123
Comment 3 Jeremy Katz 2004-10-28 12:17:55 UTC 
This works here on my i810 box.  Can you snag /tmp/ananconda.log,
/tmp/syslog and /tmp/ramfs/X.log?
Comment 4 Brock Organ 2004-10-28 21:21:44 UTC 
from /tmp/anaconda.log:

> * found video card controller Card:Intel 810
> * found Intel 810 card requiring agpgart, loading module
> * modules to insert agpgart
> * module(s) agpgart not found
> * load module set done
> < ... >
> * Display mode = t

/tmp/syslog has no obvious error messages ... and there is no
/tmp/ramfs/X.log ...
Comment 5 Jeremy Katz 2004-10-29 13:25:45 UTC 
How much RAM is in the box?  This is http _defaulting_ to text mode,
not falling back (and all these details are in /tmp/anaconda.log and
/tmp/syslog...)
