Hello, In /proc/driver/nvidia/agp/status I can see the Fast Writes are disabled, altough /proc/driver/nvidia/agp/card says that fast writes are supported.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat /proc/driver/nvidia/agp/status Status: Enabled Driver: AGPGART AGP Rate: 8x Fast Writes: Disabled SBA: Enabled [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat /proc/driver/nvidia/agp/card Fast Writes: Supported SBA: Supported AGP Rates: 8x 4x Registers: 0x1f000e1b:0x1f004302 All webpages related this subject say I should add "options nvidia NVreg_EnableAGPSBA=1 NVreg_EnableAGPFW=1" after alias char-major-195 nvidia in /etc/modules.conf. alias char-major-195 nvidia options nvidia NVreg_EnableAGPSBA=1 NVreg_EnableAGPFW=1 The nvidia readme at: ftp://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/1.0-5336/README states: SBA and Fast Writes indicate whether either one of the features is currently in use. Please note that several factors decide if support for either will be enabled. First of all, both the AGP card and the host bridge must support the feature. Even if both do support it, the driver may decide not to use it in favor of system stability. This is particularly true of AGP Fast Writes. Any suggestions on enabling Fast Writes or determining or the driver thinks it makes the system unstable (and how to fix it) are welcome. And so I did but nothing changed (by default SBA is enabled). I'm running 2.6.6 kernel with nvidia drier 1.0-5336 (latest). -- Elie De Brauwer http://www.de-brauwer.be No animals were hurt and no microsoft products were used during the creation of this e-mail -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
