Coming late to the party, my base kernel config contains, fgit@slippy$ ag -s agp amd64/KOMQUATS 59:nodevice agp # support several AGP chipsets fgit@slippy$ None of my machines use it and kldstat shows it not loaded. -- Cheers, Cy Schubert <[email protected]> FreeBSD UNIX: <[email protected]> Web: https://FreeBSD.org NTP: <[email protected]> Web: https://nwtime.org e^(i*pi)+1=0
