The issue I've seen is reproducable like so: 1) boot linux box 2) enable use of kernel AGPGART (not internal nvidia AGPGART code) in XF86Config (load agpgart kernel module if needed) 3) Start X 4) Leave X 5) enable use of internal nvidia AGPGART code in XF86Config 6) Start X 7) choke. have to log in from remote box to reboot. (2) and (5) imply changing the value of the option NvAgp in XF86Config. Why it chokes, I don't know. Maybe it has something to do with the AMD AGP issue you quoted and the "inadvertant trashing of AGP memory". Does anyone else know more about this[1]? Perhaps the NV guys on the list? How does this problem manifest itself? Segfaults? System lockups? Ciao. krjw.
