Hello.
1.- testgart and the glx module with AGP enabled show memory corruption
errors.
2.- The AGP gart module loads under my laptop (K6-2 450Mhz, ALI M1541
chipset, 64Mb RAM). Syslog is showing the following data:
Nov 3 19:31:20 localhost kernel: Linux agpgart interface v0.99 (c) Jeff
Hartmann
Nov 3 19:31:20 localhost kernel: agpgart: Maximum main memory to use for
agp memory: 27M
Nov 3 19:31:20 localhost kernel: agpgart: Detected Ali M1541 chipset
Nov 3 19:31:20 localhost kernel: agpgart: AGP aperture is 64M @ 0xe0000000
Then, the glx module using AGP modes mach64_dma=3 or mach64_dma=4 shows
corrupted textures, and even crashes the machine.
Trying to isolate the problem, I test the program testgart (included with
this mail), and it says:
version: 0.99
bridge id: 0x154110b9
agp_mode: 0x1c000203
aper_base: 0xe0000000
aper_size: 64
pg_total: 6912
pg_system: 6912
pg_used: 0
entry.key : 0
entry.key : 1
Allocated 8 megs of GART memory
MemoryBenchmark: 81 mb/s
MemoryBenchmark: 82 mb/s
MemoryBenchmark: 82 mb/s
Average speed: 81 mb/s
Testing data integrity (1st pass): failed on first pass!
Testing data integrity (2nd pass): failed on second pass!
At the same time, the syslog is dumping lines with this shape:
Nov 5 18:19:50 localhost kernel: memory : c3998d60
Nov 5 18:19:50 localhost kernel: memory : c0e8fba0
The testgart doesn't fail all the time. But the kernel-memory lines shows
in the syslog anyway.
With the glx module, I've also seen this line into the syslog:
Nov 3 19:31:20 localhost kernel: apm: get_event: Interface not connected
And then, the machine is not able to power down on halt. It says "Power
down" and nothing more.

No Oops.
The testgart that I've used is attatched in this mail.
The output of the ver_linux script is:
