Conversely, I see just the opposite behavior (on an i386 machine) -- if r128.o is loaded before or without agpgart.o, hardware accel hangs the machine. When agpgart is loaded before r128, r128 prints some extra agp-related stuff to the console when it initializes -- and then hw accel works for me. -- Joseph Fannin jhf@rivenstone.net "Bull in pure form is rare; there is usually some contamination by data." -- William Graves Perry Jr.
