Re: drm and radeon module load problems
hi,
What does dmesg say about agp?
actually, nothing... it's weird, because agpgart should be compiled into
the kernel
In my AMD64 the AGP comes from:
Device Drivers --->
Character devices --->
/dev/agpgart (AGP Support)
AMD Opteron/Athlon64 on-CPU GART support
If I have
Processor type and features --->
IOMMU support
selected, then the /dev/agpgart is automatically selected, and I don't
have the 'AMD Opteron/Athlon64 on-CPU GART support' available.
thanks for information. you're right, with IOMMU support disabled i can
see both /dev/agpgart switch and amd 64bit on-cpu gart support. when
iommu is enabled, both of these switches seem to be activated by default
and they cannot be changed in the x/menuconfig. do you think it is ok?
Did you mention which chipset you have, maybe I missed it. Anyway I
don't think that a VIA chipset wouldn't be supported. Even my K8T800Pro
worked with 2.6.12 and lspci lists it in 2.6.14.
i have via k8t890. i just realized that the kernel recognizes many
features that the last one missed... regarding the agp, it worked fine
with 2.6.11...
You can always try the 'agp_try_unsupported=1' option (if you use agp as
a module). If the agp is in the kernel, give that as a kernel parameter.
you mean to give agp_try_unsupported during boot? what should it do?
Once again, check what dmesg says about agp.
nothing :(
I don't know what might have changed between 2.6.11 and 2.6.12
concerning the agp, sorry :(
bad to know :( fortunately the card driver runs ok without the kernel
module... but no hw acceleration here :( and newer version of ati driver
(8.14.13) is not usable - it crashes XFree when i move the mouse :( weird...
