Subject: [2.5.69-bk1] Modprobe error with agpgart

I get the following with modprobe when I try to probe agpgart with the
following lines in my modprobe.conf.

Entries in /etc/modprobe.conf:
alias char-major-10-175 agpgart
options agpgart agp_try_unsupported=1

Error in dmesg:
agpgart: Unknown parameter `agp_try_unsupported'

Is this a problem in modprobe or in the agpgart driver?

Thanks,
David

In case you didn't figure it out yet, the option is no longer
part of the agpgart.ko, but has now moved to the chipset specific
module (via-agp.ko, intel-agp.ko, sis-agp.ko etc...)
