So I installed the 2.6.7 powerpc kernel image, and glxinfo said I had no direct rendering... traced it to a message in the XFree86.0.log suggesting I install agpgart first. My previous kernels had agpgart built in. So I added agpgart to /etc/modules and rebooted, but still no joy. I see this in the XFree86 log: drmOpenByBusid: Searching for BusID pci:0000:00:10.0 drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0 drmOpenDevice: open result is 6, (OK) drmOpenByBusid: drmOpenMinor returns 6 drmOpenByBusid: drmGetBusid reports pci:0000:00:10.0 (II) RADEON(0): [drm] DRM interface version 1.2 (II) RADEON(0): [drm] created "radeon" driver at busid "pci:0000:00:10.0" (II) RADEON(0): [drm] added 8192 byte SAREA at 0xe25f5000 (II) RADEON(0): [drm] mapped SAREA 0xe25f5000 to 0x340c8000 (II) RADEON(0): [drm] framebuffer handle = 0xb8000000 (II) RADEON(0): [drm] added 1 reserved context for kernel (WW) RADEON(0): [agp] AGP not available (EE) RADEON(0): [agp] AGP failed to initialize.
