dules in the kernel, not in modules, as I used to do in 2.4 kernel, which works well for me The configuration I tested was (from my .config file): CONFIG_AGP=y # CONFIG_AGP_ALI is not set # CONFIG_AGP_AMD is not set # CONFIG_AGP_AMD_8151 is not set # CONFIG_AGP_INTEL is not set # CONFIG_AGP_NVIDIA is not set # CONFIG_AGP_SIS is not set # CONFIG_AGP_SWORKS is not set CONFIG_AGP_VIA=y CONFIG_DRM=y # CONFIG_DRM_TDFX is not set # CONFIG_DRM_GAMMA is not set # CONFIG_DRM_R128 is not set # CONFIG_DRM_RADEON is not set CONFIG_DRM_MGA=y
