How do I enagle agpgart, in the kernel?
 

I have Savage: The Battle for Newerth installed on Mandrake 10.1 When I start the game, it tells me that I need to turn on AGPGART in my kernel. My question is:

How do I do this, and if you know how, can you send me the steps to do it?

as root

modprobe agpgart

that should work, are you using a stock kernel?

Yes the kernel Im using, is the kernel that came with the distro.

I just tried it, and it didnt work.

I am trying to play Savage, with my linux box. When it starts up, it tells me, that I need to enable AGP supprt, or agpgart. The modprobe did not work. I've no idea, what to do. Thank you for you response.

mayb the stock mdk kernel dosent have it, someone else will havto answer that.

if i were you id compile my own kernel, and put the AGPGART in as a module

I am not new to Mandrake LInux, but I do not know, the full features, of compiling kernels. When it comes to that, I am a NEWBIE. Perhaps, you might be able to help me out.

Both SuSE and Mandrake have AGPgart enabled as a Kernel MODULE, not enabled directly in the kernel.

To enable it, you need to load the module in your XF86Config-4 file in Mandrake or the XF86Config file in SuSE.
