Listmates,
After the latest kernel update, I cannot start X for the Arch box I have that
has an onboard intel graphics card. (Dell 280GX sff) The errors are:
02:31 nirvana:/srv/www/download/Archlinux/bugs/supersff> grep "(EE)"
Xorg.0.log
(WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.
(EE) Failed to load module "i810" (module does not exist, 0)
(EE) Failed to load module "fbdev" (module does not exist, 0)
Obviously it is complaining about the intel i810 and framebuffer modules. Why?
This box has always worked fine with the 915 module. It looks like all the
normal intel modules are loaded:
02:34 supersff:~> lsmod | grep "intel\|915"
i915 231880 0
drm 156160 1 i915
i2c_algo_bit 5888 1 i915
video 20116 1 i915
snd_intel8x0 30616 0
snd_ac97_codec 106112 1 snd_intel8x0
snd_pcm 74464 3 snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm_oss
snd 58820 9
snd_seq_oss,snd_seq,snd_intel8x0,snd_seq_device,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm,snd_timer
snd_page_alloc 8900 2 snd_intel8x0,snd_pcm
intel_agp 28348 1
i2c_core 21808 4 i915,drm,i2c_algo_bit,i2c_i801
agpgart 32660 2 drm,intel_agp
Any ideas? I'm not even sure where to begin on this one. This box doesn't
have an xorg.conf and the defaults have always worked just fine. What could
have changed?
Full Xorg.0.log and pacman.log are here:

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
