Jesse:
After an upgrade to Fedora-16, my Xorg server has a problem. It no
longer binds to the intel driver to the 865G graphics chip.
Here's the relevant portion of the Xorg log:

In both cases, the dri and dri2 extensions were loaded correctly.
Here's the part of the boot-up log showing the graphics detection:

[ 1.305364] agpgart-intel 0000:00:00.0: AGP aperture is 128M @ 0xf0000000
The /dev/dri directory does exist:
$ ls -l /dev/dri
total 0
crw-rw----+ 1 root video 226, 0 Nov 28 16:12 card0
There is no controlD64 file; I noticed that it is present in the Fedora
graphical installation environment (which _does_ work). Is it
important? If it is, what driver creates that file? Or is some udev
rule messed up?
The Xorg configuration is slightly different from what it was before,
but not much. Here is the relevant section (which hasn't changed):
Section "Device"
Identifier "card0"
Driver "intel"
VendorName "Intel Corporation"
BusID "PCI:0:2:0"
Option "NoAccel" "yes"
Option "BackingStore" "on"
EndSection
Do you have any idea what's going wrong and how I can fix it? Life
without a GUI is rather inconvenient. :-(
Thanks,
Alan Stern

Hm, afaik the 865G should still work, maybe Fedora blacklisted the
kernel support for it in newer bits? If so, you'll need to use the
vesa driver instead of the intel driver...

Never mind, I found the problem. For some reason the Fedora installer
added "nomodeset" to GRUB's kernel command line, and that prevented the
intel driver from registering with the DRM infrastructure. I changed
it to "video=VGA-1:640x480" and now X is working.
