Could be the chip is too new for the Intel driver in 7.4.

Juanito:
I haven't managed to get intel graphics chips to work with Xorg confless or with the suggested configuration on three different machines - it might be worth googling on your graphics chipset name and xorg.conf

Edit: if you look in /var/log/Xorg.0.log it says what devices are supported when it loads the intel driver:
--- Code: ---(II) intel: Driver for Intel Integrated Graphics Chipsets: i810,
i810-dc100, i810e, i815, i830M, 845G, 852GM/855GM, 865G, 915G,
E7221 (i915), 915GM, 945G, 945GM, 945GME, IGD_GM, IGD_G, 965G, G35,
965Q, 946GZ, 965GM, 965GME/GLE, G33, Q35, Q33,
Mobile Intel® GM45 Express Chipset,
Intel Integrated Graphics Device, G45/G43, Q45/Q43, G41
--- End code ---

curaga:
Intel does add support to chips before they ship, 3150 was called IDG_G at that point. Maybe support for it was not finished yet at 2.7, though.

jur:
If I may suggest, install puppeee with xorg, that will generate the xorg.conf file probably correctly. The copy the file over to tinycore and see if it will run like that. That's how I got mine going as confless has not been successful with mine with the external monitor attached.

mwoodruff:
I went over to the intellinuxgraphics website, and it looks like the 3150 has been supported only since  2.10.  Or maybe 2.9: IDGNG was supported in 2.9, then disappeared in 2.10 when support for the 3150 was added.  So it looks like Xorg7.5 might support my graphics chipset, but not Xorg7.4.
