Question: at this point without an updated BIOS do you suggest I again try "sax2 -r -m 0=i810" ?
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!
It is certainly possible that I somehow screwed things up the first time and caused the crashed video.
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.
If I do this again is it best to do it from a virtual console rather than from the GUI Sax2?
Absolutely. I suspect the GUI sax2 incapable of switching from the intel driver to the i810 driver. -- "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God."
