I2C is not a prerequisite of running X he just needs to configure the X server and it should work. I have run into this before and solved it without building I2C into the kernel (or as a module). All I forgot to do was configure X.

   = ;     /dev/fb0 is the framebuffer.  No need to worry about that if using X.  But if
        run= ning a splash screen, then it needs to be defined in the kernel.  There is
       &n= bsp;a how-to on gentoo-wiki.org expl= aining how to setup the system and kernel.

The other, you'll need to= re-config your kernel to include -

     &n= bsp;  Device Drivers -->
            = ;    I2C Support -->
    &nbs= p;            &= nbsp;      <M> I2C support
          =             &nb= sp;  <*>   I2C device interface
     = ;            &n= bsp;      I2C Hardware Bus Support -->
       &n= bsp;            = ;            &l= t;M > Intel 810/815

And -

      =   Device Drivers -->
      &n= bsp;         Character Devices= -->
          &nbs= p;            &= nbsp;Intel 440LX/BX/GX, I8xx and E7x05 chipset support

The above should get you= graphics, or at least closer.  I don't have your setup, so
I'= m doing a best guess on the above.
