This is my config:

Section "Device"
        BusID           "PCI:0:02:0"
        Identifier      "Intel915"
        Driver      "i810"
        Option      "PageFlip"   "yes"
        Option      "MonitorLayout" "CRT,LFP"
        Option      "AccelMethod" "XAA"
        Screen      0
EndSection

this is from log file.

(II) I810(0): 0x81fe650: Memory at offset 0x0e6a4000, size 1392 kBytes

I've also played with CacheLines. The result was that instead of allocation 
37888kB for framebuffer only 21000kB has been allocated but for textures still
only 1392. Do not know why.
