I'm still kind of new to all this, but the two "drivers" that
Intel has on their site for the i810 chipset are both in the
rpm format. One is a Xserver which installs very nicely
never had it fail on any installation. The second "driver"
is a module called agpgart.o which has to be "rebuilt"
against the kernel you intend to use. No the module is
not in binary, I went inside the agpgart.o module and
"read" in there the part where it checks for the version
of kernel. I guess a new module will need to be written
when the new kernels come out, 2.3 (experimental)
and 2.4 (stable).
