|
|
Argh help!
No matter what I try I can't get my AGP to initialise:
Code: |
ninpo@titan ~ $ cat /proc/driver/nvidia/agp/status
Status: Disabled
AGP initialization failed, please check the ouput
of the 'dmesg' command and/or your system log file
for additional information on this problem.
ninpo@titan ~ $ |
All I get from dmesg is:
Code: |
nvidia: module license 'NVIDIA' taints kernel.
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:01:05.0[A] -> GSI 16 (level, low) -> IRQ 16
NVRM: loading NVIDIA Linux x86 NVIDIA Kernel Module 1.0-6629 Wed Nov 3 13:12:51 PST 2004
ACPI: PCI interrupt for device 0000:01:05.0 disabled
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:01:05.0[A] -> GSI 16 (level, low) -> IRQ 16
NVRM: loading NVIDIA Linux x86 NVIDIA Kernel Module 1.0-7676 Fri Jul 29 12:58:54 PDT 2005 |
AGPGART is compiled as a module. I have an ATI chipset based motherboard and an NVIDIA 5500FX. I've tried the 66xx version of the Nvidia drivers as well as the latest 7676 version.
The following modules are loaded for my agp gart:
Code: | ninpo@titan ~ $ lsmod | grep -i agp
ati_agp 6668 0
agpgart 28616 2 nvidia,ati_agp
ninpo@titan ~ $ |
Obviously this is making games like UT2004 run like crap.
Code: | ninpo@titan ~ $ glxgears
216 frames in 5.0 seconds = 43.200 FPS
X connection to :0.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown).
ninpo@titan ~ $ glxinfo | grep -i render
direct rendering: Yes
OpenGL renderer string: GeForce FX 5500/PCI/SSE2
ninpo@titan ~ $ |
The kernels I've tried so far:
2.6.13-gentoo-r2 (currently running)
linux-2.6.12-rc2-nitro1
linux-2.6.13.1-nitro1
Will be trying this one next:
linux-2.6.14-rc2 (vanilla sources)
Please, someone, help! |

Ok vanilla 2.6.14 sources didn't work either.
I eventually managed to get the gentoo sources to hang on starting X by disabling APIC and ACPI. Now back on the latest nitro.
I get ~2000 fps with glxgears with nitro but AGP is still disabled.
I don't wanna install Windows to play UT2K4!! I DON'T WANNA!!!  |
