hello,
I 've installed a red hat 7.2 : the INTEL 82845G/GL video card is not recognized and available for X server... Any solution ?

Does the red hat 8.0 distribution manage this video driver ?

Not really! I'm running RH 8.0 on the same card and the quality of the graphics was terrible. I chose a generic driver called "vesa" and it gives me so-so quality. I understand that kernel 2.6 will provide the proper support of 82845G/GL cards. Hope so!

i didn,t know intel made video cards, are you sure it,s not intergrated video on your motherboard?

Duh, you're right. It is integrated on the motherboard. "Vesa" driver still get's the thing working for me until 2.6, that's the important thing. At least for me.
