and: if you have enabled iommu support, agpsupport is built in the kernel.
Because both are the same for AMD64.
There is nio good reason to build agpsupport as modul on amd64, so it is
ok to build it in. Just make a kernel, install the kernel and install
nvidia-kernel and nvidia-glx.
Actually, if you want to use the nvidia agpgart drivers, agpgart support
should be a module. Depending on your nvidia options, it will be loaded
when the nvidia module is loaded, or nvidia will handle agpgart itself.
From the README:
X Config Options
Option "NvAGP" "integer"
Configure AGP support. Integer argument can be one of:
Value Behavior
-------------- ---------------------------------------------------
0 disable AGP
1 use NVIDIA's internal AGP support, if possible
2 use AGPGART, if possible
3 use any AGP support (try AGPGART, then NVIDIA's
AGP)
If agpgart is compiled into the kernel, only 2 will work.
My menuconfig still shows --- for the agp line, so based on my responses
I still have it built in some where do to another dependency.
Tried playing with some of the options, but still shows ---.
I will look at it more.
I guess nvidia's agp looks better then agpgart?
I have not done anything in the X config o wht you mention above.
Thanks
