After installing the 'xserver-xorg-video-i810' (on testing/unstable) or not (on stable), you'll need to change your config file. The easiest (probably) way to do this on Debian is a 'dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' (on testing/unstable) or 'dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86' (on stable) and choose the defaults for most things, except the graphics drivers, where you would choose it manually and scroll to where it says 'i810'. > I'm saying these with absolutely no experience with that graphic controller, > or it's set up. Maybe some other steps are recommended...
