Are you the guy who tried to load Knoppix CD, and then what appeared to
be RedHat on that laptop at the meeting last night?

Hmmm.... kernel option...

Intel I810/I815 DC100/I810e support
CONFIG_AGP_I810
  This option gives you AGP support for the Xserver on the Intel 810
  815 and 830m chipset boards for their on-board integrated graphics.
  This is required to do any useful video modes with these boards.

Dunno about anything else... Can you use a variant install kernel? These
can't go above any resolution/color depth requiring >1 meg of memory.
