I have a n old notebook with a intel video chipset (810) should i use the * intelfb* instead of *uvesafb*?

You have to select Connector - unified userspace <-> kernelspace linker in
the Device Drivers page. Then you will have uvesafb available for
selection.

It seems that you also need v86d installed, and start with an initramfs with
that in it, though I haven't yet finished working this out for myself.
