So seems you have an Intel-910/915 video controler (i don't have Intel). So switch CONFIG_AGP=ON and afterwards enable Intel-910 ot similar video controler. Could do a: genkernel --menuconfig --install all - this will use your old config display a text-driven menu for kernel config and after exiting will compileinstall (in /boot) your new kernelmodules. If you wish backup the old one before that. HTH.Rumen Earlier this afternoon I compiled and booted a new kernel with CONFIG_AGP=y, but now when I run genkernel --menuconfig all I can't find anything that even hints at being Intel-=910 or video controller.

There's only one option for Intel chipset support (from 810-I915). If made as modules put the appropriate entries in /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 PS:could check the genkernel guide too. HTH.Rumen The only entry for Intel immediately below /dev/agpgart on mine is: Intel 440LX/BX/GX, I8xx and E7x05 chipset support. Is this correct?
