One of my computers have that card and I think I just had to use the Xorgwizard... Or maybe copied the xorg.config form Fedora

I don't usually use that computer so right now it has an older version of Puppy.

I will check when I get home, maybe even send you the xorg.config file I use.

An alternative would be to use the Intel acceleration drivers provided by MU and follow his instructions.

rarsa, Can you tell me where I can get the 'Intel acceleration drivers' and instructions. It's not clear from a search of this forum.
