I've updated:

    http://itmaze.com.au/articles/thinkpad.r52/


The additions/modifications you suggested were implemented. As soon as I =

tried to load GLX, back to the black screen.

Some notes:

    * The amount of video RAM does not appear in the BIOS that I can
      find. I also mis-reported the amount of memory my machine has, it
      has 1.5Gb, only 50% more :-)
    * The only kernel modules with 810 in them is: i2c_i810, and it is
      used by i2c_algo_bit which is used by i2c_core. This means that I
      didn't need to unload i810 to load i915 when I last tried that.
      Should I add i915 to my modules list in /etc/modules ?
    * I was not able to install libgl1-mesa-dri or libgl1-mesa-glx they
      do not appear to be in backports.
    * dpg -l | grep ii|grep mesa gives me:

        ii  xlibmesa-dri   4.3.0.dfsg.1-1 Mesa 3D graphics library
        modules [XFree86]
        ii  xlibmesa-gl    4.3.0.dfsg.1-1 Mesa 3D graphics library [XFree=
86]
        ii  xlibmesa-gl-de 4.3.0.dfsg.1-1 Mesa 3D graphics library
        development files [
        ii  xlibmesa-glu   4.3.0.dfsg.1-1 Mesa OpenGL utility library
        [XFree86]
        ii  xlibmesa-glu-d 4.3.0.dfsg.1-1 Mesa OpenGL utility library
        development file
