Hi everybody.
I have VIA KT880 chipset and ATI Radeon 9600XT graphics card.
I use Debian Sarge 3.0 with self-builded kernel 2.6.12.3, Xfree86 4.3.0.1 and ATI fglrx driver 8.14.13-2. (Kernel and fglrx module were built with gcc 3.3.4).
My problem is that I cant turn on direct rendering (fglrxinfo says «MESA GLX indirect»)
This part of Xfree86.0.log describes my problem:
Code:
(II)fglrx(0): driver needs XFree86 4.3.x

It was said in ATI Proprietary Linux Release Notes that «version 2.6 kernels require a second kernel module in addition to agpgart, which should be named similar to the manufacturer of your motherboard AGP chipset. This error message should occur if the other agp module is not loaded».
But «lsmod | grep agp\|fglrx» output looks like this:
Code:
via_agp 9792 1
agpgart 35912 2 fglrx,via_agp
fglrx 245884 0
Also, during startup klogd writes:
Code:
Aug 8 10:58:01 localhost kernel: Linux agpgart interface v0.101 (c) Dave Jones
Aug 8 10:58:01 localhost kernel: agpgart: Detected VIA KT880 chipset
Aug 8 10:58:01 localhost kernel: agpgart: AGP aperture is 128M @ 0xe0000000

Aug 8 20:40:06 localhost kernel: [fglrx] module loaded - fglrx 8.14.13 [Jun 8 2005] on minor 0
When I type 'startx' the X starts with no DRI support and klogd writes the following:
Code:
Aug 8 20:46:22 localhost kernel: agpgart: Maximum main memory to use for agp memory: 816M
Aug 8 20:46:22 localhost kernel: agpgart: Unsupported Via chipset (device id: 0269), you might want to try agp_try_unsupported=1.

Aug 8 20:46:22 localhost kernel: [fglrx:firegl_unlock] *ERROR* Process 3770 using kernel context 0
Also, I cant start X server again after its shutdown. After secondary `startx` blank screen appears, Xfree86.0.log interrupts on the line «(II) fglrx(0): [drm] register handle = 0xfe200000» (see below, exactly before, «unable to acquire AGP»), and after pressing ACPI power button klogd reports «allocation failed» (I'm not sure, maybe this message appears any time power button pressed).
Please help me.
PS: I'm a novice with Linux, so excuse for any mistakes. And for my bad English.
PPS: Here are extracts from my fstab (for tmpfs), XF86Confiig-4 and .kernel's .config:

PPPS: I forgot one more thing - changing the "UseIntrnalAGPGART" parameter has absoulutely no effect.
