The Kconfig help text for `AGP` is a little confusing (and maybe
outdated?) [1].

You should say Y here if you want to use GLX or DRI.

Although selected in Linux’ default x86 configs

      arch/x86/configs/i386_defconfig
      arch/x86/configs/x86_64_defconfig

I do not think, it’s necessary to build this into the Linux kernel.

It is (or was); see the changelog entry for version 2.6.32-10.

Sorry, for being unclear. At least I am able to build Linux 5.6 and 5.7-rcX with AGP and the drivers built as modules.


Kind regards,

Paul
