Original question.
I am trying to install FC-5, on a system whit a Intel 82865 MB, but X
won't start for graphical install. The screen is black and the keyboard
not respond (CTRL+ALT+F2 do not switch)
My fault, it is i915 instead of i910. I tried modprobe for the i810 and
for the i915 and both loaded. Currently, I am on a radeon system and
lsmod shows both the modules loaded as below.
Anyway, I am skeptical that loading the module and then running
system-config-display would work anyway as I think about the issue more.
System-config-display should load the video modules during probing for
the video cards.
There were two threads recently regarding Intel video. One of the
threads mentioned a program called 915resolution that is needed for some
Intel versions. I never needed the program so I am not familiar with the
program.
There was also a thread discussing problems with later model Intel
graphics cards. The person grabbed the snapshot for the driver and ran a
script to replace the faulty binaries passed on through the latest
xorg-x11 update for the Intel cards.
Reference to thread.

Yet another person stated that he acquired working drivers through the
development repository.
If you want to try the modprobe for the i810 and i915 driver and then
run system-config-display --reconfig it should not hurt anything.
My excerpt from lsmod after installing the i810 and i915 modules.
[root@lh ~]# modprobe i810
[root@lh ~]# modprobe i910
FATAL: Module i910 not found.
[root@cornette-lt ~]# modprobe i915
[root@lh ~]# lsmod
