I have the same motherboard as Jari (Asus P5B) and my computer also freezes after the message: "agpgart: Detected an Intel 965G Chipset." The P5B mobo has an Intel 965 chipset (not 965G), and therefore, I believe the following patch in 2.6.22 solves the problem: --- (from http://www.eu.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/ChangeLog-2.6.22) commit 47d46379eb66278107947729e34a833c76dca252 Author: Wang Zhenyu <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Thu Jun 21 13:43:18 2007 +0800 [AGPGART] intel_agp: don't load if no IGD and AGP port After i915 chip, GMCH has no AGP port. Origin bridge driver in device table will try to access illegal regs like APBASE, APSIZE, etc. This may cause problem. So mark them as NULL in the table, we won't load if no IGD got detect and bridge has no AGP port.
