I think I spoke to soon. It only seems to work properly at lower

I know the card can support them.

Changed my monitor settings and it now seems to be OK. It was detected
as a generic monitor, but I chaged it to the actual model.

thanks

I have just installed FC4 on a Dell GX150 that has an onboard Intel
815 chipset. X does work, however there are all vertical lines that flicker and it seems to be a lot jerkier than it should.

I found on some forums to add the Option = "noaccel" to the device section of the xorg.conf file, however this hasn't fixed it. Has anyone else seen or fixed this problem?

Cheers,

I have an 815 chipset, and I've seen the symptoms you describe. I had to
tweak the xorg.conf file to get it to work right- make sure the
configuration program didn't put some insane values in the video
section.

If you are fully updated to the latest rpms for FC4, X should be fairly decent. I run FC4 on a computer with 1280x1024 resolution. I use 24 depth which works great for 2-D applications. The Option "NoAccel" option was needed for a refresh problem with the driver awhile back. (FC3 era, I believe). You will probably do better without having "NoAccel" added to xorg.conf
