Dear sir,

I am using Redhat 6.1 in my i810 motherboard and just download the drivers
from intel webpage. i just follow all the instruction from intel webpage to
install the linux driver for i810 and the modification of XF86Config. but i
got a error message after i run "startx", the following error message:

execve failed for /etc/X11/X (errno 2)
_X11TransSocketYNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 111
giving up.
xinit: Connection refused (errno 111):  unable to connect to X server

Don't try to do it this way, get a new kernel to compile (download
the source from your local kernel mirror) and get the latest xf86 source
and compile that. The newer versions have much improved i810 support
and don't need any binary-only drivers or special stuff. You have to make
sure you configure AGPgart support for the i810 into the kernel.

Probably won't take long before RedHat have precompiled binaries
for this stuff but it's all still a bit too new so if compiling is
too difficult then ask someone else to do it for you or wait a bit.
