  I guess I must...got the package from your link..installed it...and
away we go!

(II) intel: Driver for Intel Integrated Graphics Chipsets: i810,
	i810-dc100, i810e, i815, i830M, 845G, 852GM/855GM, 865G, 915G,
	E7221 (i915), 915GM, 945G, 945GM, 945GME, 965G, G35, 965Q, 946GZ,
	965GM, 965GME/GLE, G33, Q35, Q33, Intel Integrated Graphics Device
(II) Primary Device is: PCI 00:02:0
(--) Chipset 865G found

After ctrl-alt-delete, system came up in 1650x1080...and tghe screen fits!

The i810 driver is useless on this machine at least with the LG monitor.

Thanks guys
