RE: i815E and SiS630 video drivers

["Doughty, Matt" <DoughtyM@example.com>]

I am actually working on a machine that has a i815E MB chipset. It has the intel 810 Graphics chip onboard, and it works fine.  I suspect you have a simmilar situation since, to my knowledge, there isn't a i815E graphics chip.

But didn't it have some video circuitry included, just like 810? I vaguely 
recall that one of the sales points of 815 was that it can disable the 
chip's video and use some external video card.

I don't know how you do it, but Kondara/MNU Linux supports 815 chipsets. 
Poking around their web site may yeild an answer.

Best,
