May be next logic
IF ( GART_IOMMU == TRUE )
THEN
IF ( AGP == TRUE )
THEN
AGP_AMD64 = TRUE;
FI
FI
Now
IF ( GART_IOMMU == TRUE )
THEN
AGP = TRUE;'
AGP_AMD64 = TURE;
FI
And in bytes is
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 54322 Jul 23 01:21 agpgart.ko
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 19745 Jil 23 01:21 amd64-agp.ko
is 74067 bytes :)
