[Bug 296617] Re: [Needs AGPMode quirk] Freeze with ati driver during boot on 8.10

 

Update:
I was able to get things to work with agp at 4x, with the following config:

###########
Section "Device"
	Identifier	"Configured Video Device"
	Driver		"ati"
	Option          "AccelMethod" "XAA"
	Option          "AGPMode" "4"
	Option          "AGPFastWrite" "yes"
	Option          "EnablePageFlip" "on"
	Option          "RenderAccel" "on"
	Option          "DynamicClocks" "on"
	Option          "BIOSHotkeys" "on"
EndSection

Section "DRI"
	Mode 0666
EndSection

Section "Extensions"
	Option "Composite" "Enable"
EndSection
###########

Which, by the way, produces a much snappier experience than the default
setup which only works with agp1x.

Not sure which of those are the key settings that enable things to work
with agp 4x, i don't really have the time to play around and try taking
them out one at a time...

note also that i'm running on plain metacity, rather than compiz... but
should work just as well...

Hope this info comes handy.
