I found:
ftp://rpmfind.net/linux/fedora/updates/9/i386.newkey/xorg-x11-drv-geode-2.10.1-1.fc9.i386.rpm
Downloaded it to the decTOP and did a yum localinstall. Found out that
2.8 was already on the system, but hey, newer should be better.
Ran 'system-config-display --reconfig' and got:
No video cards were found on this system, exiting
Now what?
