Hi dudes,
I had a lot of queries on X failing on the Kobian i810 boards with the error:
(--) SVGA: PCI: Intel Unknown chipset (0x7121) rev 3, Memory @ 0xd8000000, 0xdc000000
gart allocate: Cannot allocate memory
(--) SVGA: GART: allocation of 1024 pages failed at page 0
This is what Intel's support had to say -

Hello Shanker,
Thank you for contacting Intel(R) Customer Support. Do you have the Kobian* KOB 810
DST or KOB 810E DSX motherboard? If so, the following information applies:
The KOB 810 DST and KOB 810E DSX motherboard from Kobian does not follow the Intel(R)
810 chipset design specifications. You should contact Kobian for support on this
product.
The Intel 810 Chipset Design Guide is available here:
http://developer.intel.com/design/chipsets/designex/290657.htm
You can reach Kobian here:

Intel(R) Customer Support - Mark W.
