Bug Description
Binary package hint: nvidia-glx
Motherboard: PCCHIPS M871G with SIS760GX/964 chipset.
Processor: Sempron 2500+ (AMD64).
Video board: Nvidia GeForce 6200 256Mb.
The system crashes if I try to use X with NvAGP other than 0 (no AGP).
dmesg says:
agpgart: Detected SiS 760 chipset
agpgart: AGP aperture is 4M @ 0xe0000000
Even thou I set aperture to 256mb at boot setup.
Also, lsmod says:
amd64_agp 13252 0
sis_agp 9284 1
agpgart 37072 3 nvidia,
On Breezy, amd64_agp module is not loaded.
I've tried it on Breezy and Dapper 32 bits.
Strangely it works on both Breezy and Dapper for AMD64 archtecture.
Thanks

Guys, it is working on Dapper 32 bits.
I just renamed 'sis-agp.ko' to 'sis-agp.ko.bak' and everything worked.
On dmesg, agpgart says aperture is 256mb as I set in boot setup and
nvidia-settings also says it is AGP8x now.
I will try something like this on Breezy, since I still didnt change to Dapper.
