 |
|
for some reason I do not have VIA AGP support anymore. I used to have it but the only that is left is... | Code: | <M> /dev/agpgart (AGP Support)
<M> AMD Opteron/Athlon64 on-CPU GART support
< > Intel i865 chipset support |
At one point I saw my VIA support in that list.

You don't say what kernel you're running. I have VIA AGP working in 2.6.5-r1. Here's the settings:
CONFIG_AGP=y
CONFIG_AGP_VIA=m

Not too surprising... from drivers/char/agp/Kconfig:
| Code: | config AGP_VIA
tristate "VIA chipset support"
depends on AGP && X86 && !X86_64
|
That option is explicitly disallowed for AMD64. But you shouldn't need it; just enable AGP_AMD64 instead ("AMD Opteron/Athlon64 on-CPU GART support"). With that and the appropriate xorg.conf setting (Option "NvAGP" "2"), AGP works just fine.
| Code: | > cat /proc/driver/nvidia/agp/status
Status: Enabled
Driver: AGPGART (inactive)
AGP Rate: 8x
Fast Writes: Enabled
SBA: Enabled
