[K12OSN] Firefox crashes

[Michael Blinn]

  I'm still wrestling with this problem. The BIOS does not have a 
section for specifying the memory allocated to the onboard i810 video. 
So, I am ending up guessing, which is never a good thing when diagnosing 
issues like this. Using videoram values of '32768' and '65536' cause the 
X server to not even start. Using 16384 it starts OK, however I still 
receive the same 'insufficient resources' when viewing lots of images. 
The CacheLines directive doesn't seem to make a difference, no matter 
its value.

  I've read of many other folks using the i810 setup on Dell GX110s.. 
does anyone else experience this problem, or how have they worked around 
it? Maybe a BIOS upgrade would allow me to specify videoram allocation?
