the other module must match your chipset

This might sound silly (its getting late), but from lspci, i assume my chipset is an ATI chipset...

Code:

or are we talking about this line ?

and you need drm for ati radeon.

That's done.

( don't forget to recompile the kernel also without the agp )

That i never understood what it exactly means....

BTW thanks egag for all the help so far
EDIT: And sorry apinta10 for stealing your thread from you

but this could be useful to you too.

yes, so intel is the right one i think. ( modulename is smth. like intel-agp or so )

i meant, if you have a kernel with agp compiled in and you want it modular,
then you have to recompile the bzImage as well as the modules.
if you only add a module then you only have to recompile the modules,

oh god.. this is really starting to get confusing..

EDIT:
Fixed it up a bit.. here's a better snapshot,
http://xushi.co.uk/agp2.jpg

Still direct rendering = no, and same errors in Xorg.0.log

egag · 03-23-2005, 06:10 PM

ah...can't you choose /dev/agpgart and the intel as modules . ?
( i can do that here.... )
if so ,i would pick both options saying " intel " as a module.
( i dont't know which one you need , but the right one will be loaded when loading agpgart.

lol egaaaaaaaag

still no hope. they're both enabled as modules.. but still 3D won't work on X.. =/

egag · 03-24-2005, 08:06 AM

well....the other people that wrote the wiki in the link above have it working,
so it should work for you.

are the modules loaded ?
and what does the xorg-log file say ?
might be a clue there....

Direct rendering Manager MUST BE DISABLED!

After that install ati package! compile the module. and configure fglrxconfig (the newest driver)
works at .run package
works in .rpm package

check dmesg
