I thought XFree86 4.3.x i810(4) had a VideoRam option?

"       The Intel 8xx family of integrated graphics chipsets has a

By default 8        Please  refer to XF86Config(5) for general  
configuration details.  This        section only covers configuration  
details specific to this driver.        The Intel 8xx family of  
integrated graphics chipsets has a unified mem-        ory   
architecture  and  uses system memory for video ram.  By default 8         
Megabytes of system memory are used for graphics.   For  the  830M  and         
later,  the  default  is  8  Megabytes  when  DRI is not enabled and 32         
Megabytes with DRI is enabled.  This amount may  be  changed  with  the         
VideoRam entry in the config file Device section.  It may be set to any         
reasonable value up to 64MB for  older  chipsets  or  128MB  for  newer         
chipets.   Note  that  increasing  this value will reduce the amount of         
system memory available for other applications. "
