From: "Mike A. Harris" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Wed, 12 Jun 2002 21:39:23 -0400 (EDT) Basically, someone has asked for me to default AGPMode to 4 in our config file, which I thought was absolutely crazy. The claim is that AGP defaulted to 1x, but changing it to 4x sped things up dramatically. That is what lead me to believe that the "default" being used is not the BIOS setting.
That's almost as stupid as the current situation which defaults to 1X AGP. Another known failure case (when user sets BIOS to 4X and X tries to use it's default of 1X) is ALI M1647 chipsets. That also hangs. All of this points to using the BIOS supplied default as being the logical way to go. Until we can be confident that every single AGP chipset is %100 done and has %100 of the workarounds, I'd highly suggest against trying to switch AGP modes by default. To my knowledge only the ServerWorks AGP bits are a) written by the vendor b) have all the necessary errata workarounds. _______________________________________________________________ Don't miss the 2002 Sprint PCS Application Developer's Conference August 25-28 in Las Vegas - http://devcon.sprintpcs.com/adp/index.cfm?source=osdntextlink _______________________________________________ Dri-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dri-devel
