I found the following page for the k8m800 motherboard.
Everything I have found from via is sub par to say the least.
It has a via_drv.o file that "seems" to do something. (cant see as I'm
home).
hope this helps someone else...

VIA's support for their Unichrome chipsets on Linux is a little lacking.
I got a system with one of these. It even had Linspire preinstalled, and
running in vesa mode.
There's a project for this, but from reading their site it looks they
don't have the Unichrome Pro working well yet.

You might try buying one in this case. Even most of the cheapest should
give a significant improvement, provided that they have 3d support and
working Linux drivers.
