Since you have a PCIe card/system, and probably have no AGP bridge to begin with, you really don't need AGP support at all. A 2.6.18 kernel will allow you to build the necessary DRM drivers without requiring AGP support. -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

But I just can select "ATI radeon" if I select kernel drm: Direct Rendering Manager (XFree86 4.1.0 and higher DRI support) ATI Radeon I do net get ati-agp compiled, and ... make modules should not be needed for kernels 2.6.* ;-) I'm a bit confused.

You may need to set AGP_AMD64 as a module, as it should probably load after the drm. Benno -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

I can't comile agpgart as a module, nor get ati-agp compiled.

Here, running 2.6.18, I compile the kernel drm, agpgart and ati-agp. I then emerge x11-drm. In /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 I add; agpgart, ati-agp, drm then radeon. In that specific order. Also, run eselect opengl and be sure xorg-x11 is selected. Now, I found it necessary to reboot the machine to reload everything in correct order, before dri would work. It works pretty well too.
