He's not refering to the slot the card plugs into when he says AGP, but the actual chip design. The Radeon chips are AGP chips. The PCI Radeon is an AGP chip on a PCI card. >This might not make a big difference, but from HP's tech support >page, the windows drivers look at the card as a PCI card as >opposed to AGP (i know AGP is just a super fancy PCI - after >reading these posts). AGP is a PCI extension, so all AGP hardware is PCI hardware. >I'm running the basic XFree86 4.2.0 right now (it's the default >with the Slackware 9 beta).

If this is the Radeon IGP, Alan Cox has expressed an interest in working with this chip, although I don't know if it was for the video features or the other hardware. I'll see if I can come up with more information. -- Mike A. Harris _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel
