I've just boot my machine with an edgy live cd and I could see that everything that depends on the intel chipset is loaded correctly:
edgy (2.6.17): lsmod | grep -i intel: snd_intel8x0 34844 1 snd_ac97_codec 97696 2 snd_emu10k1,snd_intel8x0 snd_pcm 84612 4 snd_emu10k1,snd_intel8x0,snd_pcm_oss,snd_ac97_codec snd 58372 16 snd_emux_synth,snd_seq_virmidi,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq,snd_emu10k1,snd_rawmidi,snd_intel8x0,snd_pcm_oss,snd_ac97_codec,snd_seq_device,snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm,snd_hwdep,snd_timer intel_agp 26012 1 agpgart 34888 2 drm,intel_agp feisty (2.6.20): lsmod | grep -i intel snd_intel8x0 34204 0 snd_ac97_codec 98336 2 snd_emu10k1,snd_intel8x0 snd_pcm 79876 4 snd_emu10k1,snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm_oss snd 54020 16 snd_emux_synth,snd_seq_virmidi,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq,snd_emu10k1,snd_rawmidi,snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec,snd_seq_device,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm,snd_hwdep,snd_timer snd_page_alloc 10888 3 snd_emu10k1,snd_intel8x0,snd_pcm intel_agp 25116 0 agpgart 35400 2 drm,intel_agp As you can see, in the feisty lsmod, snd_intel8x0 hasn't detected my chipset i875P, neither the intel_agp. I usually use an emu10k1 sound card, because of that i couldn't see this before. I think that this bug is near the kernel chipset detection, instead the agpgart module or radeon module. regards -- AGP not detected on Intel 8285P and E7205 chipsets using kernels higher than 2.6.17 https://launchpad.net/bugs/78684 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
