[Dri-users] Re: Not working on Radeon Mobility, I830MR

[Jim C. <ji...@ma...>]

Thank you all for your help! The problem was with XFree86-4.1.99. When I
installed XFree86-4.2.0 it came to life. On my system, a Dell Inspiron 4100
with Radeon Mobility LY (AGP) and i830MR chipset, it's necessary to
patch the AGPGART kernel module; thanks to Nic...@ep... for the
patches and thanks to Ser...@in... for bringing them to
my attention.

I have a writeup on the procedure here:

Links to the patches are in the document, as well as speed test results.
