[CLUE-Tech] Intel 852GM chipset graphics

Greetings-
     A while ago there was some discussion on the list about getting 
XFree86 working on a laptop with Intel's 852GM graphics chipset (I think 
it was a 400SP).  I'm trying to configure a laptop with the same 
chipset.  I'm running Debian with kernel version 2.4.20.  I installed 
XFree86 version 4.3.0.  I got X to run with little difficulty, however 
the highest resolution I can get is 800x600.  I have also been unable to 
get DRI to run on the system.  I'm not sure if these two problems are 
related.  I want to get the system to run with 1024x768 with DRI enabled.
     I would be interested in any info or advice that people can offer. 
  Particularly, what parameters should be included in the kernel config 
file, what other modules need to be installed, and do I need to send the 
kernel any boot parameters?  I've attached my XF86Config file.

                                  Thanks for any help
                                        -Ed Behn
