The VESA driver will give you very generic video support with this
chipset.  RedHat XF86 rpms currently do _not_ support it;  You have to
either try building XFree86 from current cvs or wait for a few months.  I
hit this problem last week with a new development box.

A google for intel redhat 82845G will give you lots of info.
