i830M chipset

[Shawn Tayler]

Well most of what I have found online has been refering to the i830.o
module being patched and loaded.  So I've been looking at that route.  What
I am currently using, and what only seems to work is the XF86 driver. 
Unfortunately, it won't amend the memory tables to reflect a greater amount
of memory.  At last that has been my experience so far.

If you have an idea, or something in mind, I'd like to hear about it.
