Re: [Dri-users] X.Org 6.9, Intel 915GM, and Kernel 2.6.5

[C S. <cs...@gm...>]

Here is the output of dmesg after inserting agpgart and intel-agp.

Linux agpgart interface v0.100 (c) Dave Jones
agpgart: Tungsten Graphics version 20040528
agpgart: Detected an Intel 915GM Chipset.
agpgart: Maximum main memory to use for agp memory: 816M
agpgart: Detected 32508K stolen memory.
agpgart: AGP aperture is 256M @ 0xd0000000

And when I try inserting drm.ko:

[]# insmod drm.ko
insmod: error inserting 'drm.ko': -1 Cannot allocate memory

In the kernel config, DRM is set to 'Y'.

Thanks again -
Craig
