Subject: Possible bug in amd64-agp (agpgart module)
Date: Fri, 30 Dec 2005 11:14:54 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <43B5089E.5090307@kefren.be> (raw)
Hi all,
Sorry for the intrusion, but i think i've stumbled across a bug in the
linux kernel.
On an Asus KV8-S XE motherboard, the agpgart module is unable to
properly determine the AGP aperture size, regardless of bios options
(AGP 8x mode & AGP 4x mode), this *might* also be related to possible
hangs in X11 when using DRI.
Bug was seen on the following config:
Asus K8V-S XE motherboard, 512MB ram with AMD Sempron 3200 (Athlon64 core)
Witnessed with an ATI Radeon 9700 Pro card and with an Asus Radeon 9200 SE.
I'll try & test this config with some more gfx cards to see if the gfx
card has any influence on the detection, but i'm not sure i have any
nVidia cards available.
This phenomenon has been found in atleast the following kernel versions:
linux 2.6.12-r9
linux 2.6.14-r4
linux 2.6.14-r5
linux 2.6.14-r7
The reported aperture size is always 32M, more details can be provided,
just ask what you need to know.
With kind regards,
Ochal Christophe
