ok, it seems something is the matter with AGP. here's an excerpt from my X log.: (EE) fglrx(0): [agp] unable to acquire AGP, error "xf86_ENOMEM" (EE) fglrx(0): cannot init AGP (II) fglrx(0): [drm] removed 1 reserved context for kernel (II) fglrx(0): [drm] unmapping 8192 bytes of SAREA 0x3297d000 at 0xf6e13000 (WW) fglrx(0): *********************************************** (WW) fglrx(0): * DRI initialization failed! * (WW) fglrx(0): * (maybe driver kernel module missing or bad) * (WW) fglrx(0): * 2D acceleraton available (MMIO) * (WW) fglrx(0): * no 3D acceleration available * (WW) fglrx(0): ********************************************* * so this definantly has something to do with the new nforce2 mobo i'm using, right? thanks again.
