Using "NvAGP" "1", but compiling the drivers with WITH_FREEBSD_AGP should be mutually exclusive. One tells the driver to use the NVidia AGP, the other tells it to use the native FreeBSD AGP. Like I said, you need to pick one. The NVidia AGP is probably the better choice. You mention below that it's already removed from the kernel, but that doesn't make sense if you're getting the agp0: console output. I'm assuming the kernel was rebuilt since that config was commented out, but is that config the one that was used? > > You might give that a try.

I've tried commenting it out and > I've tried leaving it on, but there is no difference in behaviour. Then you should definitely not be compiling the drivers with WITH_FREEBSD_AGP. Try recompiling without that config. Linux support is probably not a problem, so don't worry about that. What do you get from the command kldstat?
