Ok, your system does not seem to like AGP 8x. Please remove BusType PCI

   Option "AGPMode" "4"
I tried this option and I had no problems with it.

I had a look into the hardware description of my DELL notebook and it
says that the graphic card supports AGPx8.  I also had no problems
with this card using the proprietary ATI fglrx driver on a another
system partition with a Kanotix system for more than 18 months.

The X logfile of this kanotix systems gives information about the used
versions:
Module fglrx: vendor="FireGL - ATI Technologies Inc."
        compiled for 7.1.0, module version = 8.29.6
        Module class: X.Org Video Driver
        ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 1.0

So maybe the reported bug is not a problem only related to my
hardware, but also to the driver.

Is there something about the AGP mode in Xorg.log or dmesg when using fglrx?

Brice



Yes.

The result of dmesg | grep AGP on the kanotix system with fglrx is:

ACPI: PCI Interrupt Routing Table [\_SB_.PCI0.AGP_._PRT]
agpgart: AGP aperture is 128M @ 0xf0000000
[fglrx] AGP detected, AgpState   = 0x1f004a1b (hardware caps of chipset)
agpgart: Found an AGP 3.0 compliant device at 0000:00:00.0.
agpgart: Putting AGP V3 device at 0000:00:00.0 into 8x mode
agpgart: Putting AGP V3 device at 0000:01:00.0 into 8x mode
[fglrx] AGP enabled,  AgpCommand = 0x1f004312 (selected caps)


The result of grep AGP /var/log/Xorg.0.log is:

(**) fglrx(0): Option "UseInternalAGPGART" "no"
(II) fglrx(0): AGP card detected
(**) fglrx(0): using built in AGPGART module: no
(II) fglrx(0): [agp] AGP v1/2 disable mask 0x00000000
(II) fglrx(0): [agp] AGP v3 disable mask   0x00000000
(II) fglrx(0): [agp] enabling AGP with mode=0x1f004b1a
(II) fglrx(0): [agp] Remapping MC AGP space (new MCAGPBase = 0xf0000000)
(II) fglrx(0): [agp] AGP protocol is enabled for graphics board. (cmd=0x1f004312)
(II) fglrx(0): [agp] graphics chipset has AGP v3.0 (native mode)
