Description Geoff Gustafson 2008-03-25 23:01:04 UTC
The updated intel graphics driver in 5.2 Beta includes early support for Cantiga
graphics (part of the Montevina mobile platform). However, Intel testing of the
Beta revealed that this agpgart update was needed for the driver to load.

I found the relevant patch upstream and backported it to 5.2.

backport of upstream agpgart cantiga id patch

This is the backported patch for 5.2, which I've tested on Montevina.

Comment 2 Peter Martuccelli 2008-03-26 16:52:50 UTC
Patch is acceptable, other then poor timing, for R5.2.

Comment 10 Jane Lv 2008-03-28 06:32:14 UTC
I applied Geoff's patch to RHEL5.2-sp1 kernel source and rebuilt it.  agpgart
works for Cantiga driver.

But I found a bug in the Cantiga 2D driver.  If the display resolution is
changed to low (1024x768, 800x600 or 640x480), there are 2 black borders at the
top and bottom of the screen.  Resolution with 1280x1024 works fine.

The screenshot will be attached.

in kernel-2.6.18-88.el5
You can download this test kernel from http://people.redhat.com/dzickus/el5

agpgart must be working because intel driver works.
