Hello,

there is a problem in ali_agp.c (both, -CURRENT and -STABLE): If I
boot the generic kernel, it panics in agp_ali.c, when it tries to
allocate memory for the gatt. Some simlpe tests showed, that the
initial aperture size is reported as zero by the device:

  static int
  agp_ali_attach(device_t dev)
  {
          struct agp_ali_softc *sc = device_get_softc(dev);
          struct agp_gatt *gatt;
          int error;
  
          error = agp_generic_attach(dev);
          if (error)
                  return error;
  
          sc->initial_aperture = AGP_GET_APERTURE(dev);

This is zero---------------------^^^^^^
  
          for (;;) {
                  gatt = agp_alloc_gatt(dev);
                  if (gatt)
                          break;
  
                  /*
                   * Probably contigmalloc failure. Try reducing the
                   * aperture so that the gatt size reduces.
                   */
                  if (AGP_SET_APERTURE(dev, AGP_GET_APERTURE(dev) / 2)) {
                          agp_generic_detach(dev);
                          return ENOMEM;
                  }
          }
          sc->gatt = gatt;
  
          /* Install the gatt. */

Since I don't have a machine ready running -CURRENT, I can't really
debug this. How can I disable agp0 on boot time?
