Hi all,
Some more info regarding my uphill battle with my machine :)

Hi all,
Sorry for the intrusion, but i think i've stumbled across a bug in the
linux kernel.
On an Asus KV8-S XE motherboard, the agpgart module is unable to
properly determine the AGP aperture size, regardless of bios options
(AGP 8x mode & AGP 4x mode), this *might* also be related to possible
hangs in X11 when using DRI.
Bug was seen on the following config:
Asus K8V-S XE motherboard, 512MB ram with AMD Sempron 3200 (Athlon64
core)
Witnessed with an ATI Radeon 9700 Pro card and with an Asus Radeon
9200 SE.
I'll try & test this config with some more gfx cards to see if the gfx
card has any influence on the detection, but i'm not sure i have any
nVidia cards available.
This phenomenon has been found in atleast the following kernel versions:
linux 2.6.12-r9
linux 2.6.14-r4
linux 2.6.14-r5
linux 2.6.14-r7
The reported aperture size is always 32M, more details can be
provided, just ask what you need to know.
Some more info, might be worthwhile for the people in the know:
