So why is AGP_SIS only configurable if !X86_64? Normally all AMD64 systems use only the AMD64 driver. That's because most of the AGP setup (the aperture) is in the CPU, not on the chipset and can be handled by a shared driver. SIS should work this way too. -Andi - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
