first thank you for your orignal advices. Redhat 9.0 kernel 2.4.20-6, mother card Asus A7N8X-X Socket 462 nVidia nForce2 400, AGP In the chapter "Character Devices" of the kernel I have found /dev/agpgart(AGP support) with y not module but nothing in relatioship with the mother card. with y there are VIA chiptset support AMD Irongate support Direct rendering Manager also ati radeon ... the module agpgart.o is there but not loaded. I confess that I don't see clearly what I have to modify in the kernel before compiling my thanks.
