The BIOS suggestion was suggestion #2. Back to first things first. Given what
has happened so far, until you try the i810 driver, suggestion #1, there's
really nothing else to discuss. So, most definitely YES!

The screwed up video was extremely highly likely the result of trying it from
a running X. Whatever happened was not permanent. Time to forget that.

Absolutely. I suspect the GUI sax2 incapable of switching from the intel
driver to the i810 driver.
