This turns out to be a step backwards. After recompiling my kernel without "device agp" and booting with "nvidia_load="YES"", I get these messages from the boot process: nivida0: Unable to allocate NVIDIA memory resource. device_probe_and_attach: nvidia0 attach returned 6 nvidia0: at device 1.0 on pci0 nvidia0: Unable to allocate NVIDIA register resource. device_probe_and_attach: nvidia0 attach returned 6 nvidia0: at device 10.0 on pci0 nvidia0: Unable to allocate NVIDIA register resource. device_probe_and_attach: nvidia0 attach returned 6 nvidia0: at device 11.0 on pci0 nvidia0: Unable to allocate NVIDIA register resource. device_probe_and_attach: nvidia0 attach returned 6 ... at which point my rl0 does not work and the machine is pretty useless. I think there is something funny about the whole Compaq R3000 series; Nvidia's driver does not work even under Windows 98 (though it's fine under Windows XP). -- George
