At last - a Cooker kernel patched for agpgart!

For all you cookers out there with Matrox AGP cards, this is what I would
do:
1.  Uninstall all your cooker Mesa rpms, except the demos (the latest ones
 require glide, which is no use for a Matrox owner) 
2.  Point your browser at http://utah-glx.sourceforge.net and download
glxMesa-2328-1.i586.rpm and the gart module README
3.  Get kernel-source-2.2.17-0.9mdk.i586.rpm from Cooker, together with 
 -headers, -doc and -utils
4.  Use XFree86-3.3.6-16mdk.i586.rpm - 4.0 is no use
5.  Install glxMesa
4.  Build kernel, enabling AGP support with the appropriate chipset under
"Character devices"
5.  `mknod /dev/agpgart c 10 175` to make /dev/agpgart
6.  Add this to /etc/rc.d/rc.local, to load agpgart at start-up:
# load 3DFX module
action "Loading AGPGART module" insmod agpgart
7.  Add this to your XF86Config:
Section "Module"
# This loads the 3DFX module
   Load "glx.so"
EndSection
8.  Reboot, with fingers crossed.

I did this and most of the Mesa demos work (200+ frames per second with
gears) - see attached GLtest.  I don't do Quake, but it's reported to work.

Not a single idea. I suppose it's the agpgart stuff, but I'm a no kernel
guy and can not answer.

(Anyway, you'll see in the logs of the start of your X server)

I don't understand your question.

On XFree-3.3.6 with a Voodoo3 on a k6-2/300 here I get 20/25 fps. I
suppose the Mesa accelerated is for 3dfx-1 (max for 3dfx-2, but I think
not for 3dfx-3) ; and also it's not DRI ; so we could get better
performance.

I heard someplace that it's not always faster with 4.0 ; but could not
test by myself.

Don't forget to send feedback on how you succeeded, on the list! :-)

Hello Guillaume,
O.k., I've printed the userguide that you pointed me to
(http://dri.sourceforge.net/DRIuserguide.html) and as I read through, I'm
starting to see a few problems already.

1)  It says that for the Matrox G400 card I should be using kernel 2.3.51
with AGP support; I'm currently using 2.2.17-0.4mdk, is that sufficiently
back-ported?

2)  Quake 3 for Linux has been out now for quite some time, how was it done
on XFree 3.3.x?  Not that this is very important, I'm interested in doing
whatever it takes to get this working in 4.0 (it's faster!); I'm just trying
to figure out why I've had such a problem getting this working.

I'll continue to study this and hopefully get something going within the
next couple days.

Thanks for you help, Mike
