However, it needs agpgart to >work, so no luck on PPC yet :( Their implementation is not able to work at all without an AGP GART ? That's brain-dead ! what about all the 3D PCI cards out there ? And all the machines that simply don't have a working AGP ? AGP should be an optimisation, not a requirement ! I have all the details (I think) to implement support for the Uni-N GART in the new Core99 macs, I'll give this a try one of these days. But that would be plain stupid not to support "classical" operations via PCI. Ben. ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
