It's not treated separately from UMA from the driver's perspective (or the HW for that matter). The hw as an FB aperture that points to stolen system memory (for UMA only) or some combination of sideport and stolen system memory for (sideport+UMA or sideport only). The bios normally sets up the sideport and UMA as interleaved if both are enabled for maximum performance. GART is a separate aperture and has nothing to do with sideport or the stolen system memory block. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ xorg-driver-ati mailing list xorg-driver-ati@lists.x.org http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-driver-ati
