can someone explain this to me please

from dmesg
agp0: detected 8060k stolen memory
agp0: aperture size is 128M

so is my i810 video using 8meg or 128 meg or what?



Hi,

The 128 Mb aperture is the maximum amount of system memory the AGP can use as graphics memory, it's using 8Mb currently (but it can use 128 Mb max). you can usually adjust aperture size in your bios.

ehm no, that's not quite correct...it's using a maximum of 128 Mb of system memory as graphics memory as said before, AND 8 Mb of stolen memory (I think..., used as framebuffer?, to do all vga/vesa modes?)


To be honest I read about the intel graphics and how they work...but can quite remember it (brain probably did not use enough stolen memory)
