Pardon me for budding in, but I've read about this "preload agp.ko/mga.ko"-stuff ever since I tried getting XFree 4.0.1 to work. I tried it to end up severely breaking X. The thing is drm/dri works just fine without preloading the kernelmodules (XFree 4.0.3 and STABLE), they seem to be loaded when needed! So why recommend something that isn't really needed? Or am I missing something here? Bjarne To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
