I have a laptop with a SiS630 chipset. Its VGA stoles memory from main RAM to act as video RAM (that damned shared ram invention...). It is an AGP vga, and agpgart always report AGP aperture as 64Mb, independently of how much memory I have assigned for VGA in the bios. I always undestood that aperture should be about 2x the card memory (even still I have not clear what is aperture for...any pointer ?). How can I tell agpgart that I only want, say, 8Mb for agp aperture ? TIA -- J.A.
