As can be read in: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=1534172&postcount=3 "Neither AGPGART nor NvAGP will be used on PCI-E systems. If your kernel was built with AGPGART, the NVIDIA kernel module will depend on the AGPGART frontend, but no backend drivers will be used." Then, I think that this could be added to the guide for preventing people from building stuff that won't use if possible (this seems to be possible at least under x86, I am still trying to find the way for disabling it under amd64...) Thanks a lot :-) Reproducible: Always
No real need to do anything about this -- it doesn't hurt it if you somehow manage to activate it, and the kernel does setup a GART of some kind anyway. And anyway, it can't be disabled on amd64, and since all motherboards with PCI-e slots for graphics *are* 64-bit...
Seems that agpgart can be disabled under amd64 if choosing CONFIG_EMBEDDED=y Also, my asus laptop has a 32 bits processor and it has a pci express card :-/, maybe I am missing something
