I tried to use FreeBSD's agp.ko, and with that, the screen just goes blank and I have to push the reset button, and I tried with nvidia's agp, and this is what the sysctl values say: hw.nvidia.agp.card.rates: 8x 4x hw.nvidia.agp.card.fw: supported hw.nvidia.agp.card.sba: supported hw.nvidia.agp.card.registers: 0x1f000e1b:0x00000000 hw.nvidia.agp.status.status: disabled hw.nvidia.agp.status.driver: n/a (unused) hw.nvidia.agp.status.rate: n/a (disabled) hw.nvidia.agp.status.fw: n/a (disabled) hw.nvidia.agp.status.sba: n/a (disabled) Is there something special to do in order to enable AGP (other than change the value in the X config, and compile the kernel module right)?? This is the agp controller: agp0: mem 0xe0000000-0xefffffff at device 0.0 on pci0 Ken
