Core 2, default kernel and agpgart


I'm probably missing something here but maybe someone can point me the way....

I was wondering if the default install kernel has agpgart enabled in it? (when I do make xconfig in the kernel source, it seems selected by default)

Its just I'm trying to do /sbin/modprobe agpgart and I get:

FATAL: Module agpgart not found

I'm basically trying to enable 3D on my radeon igp320M. I've got the patched XFree86-4.3.99 and the proper settings in XFConfig and the log shows its detected properly but I'm only getting 200 fps or so. agpgart is the only thing I haven't been able to load

(I haven't recompiled the 2.6 kernel yet...that is why I wanted to know if it was already there...)

Thanks! Learn something new everyday

Seems it is included:

CONFIG_AGP=y and CONFIG_DRM=y

Which means I now have no clue as to way 3D acceleration is not enabled.
