I downloaded your xen-2.0 package for my machine only to discover that
it does not include support for intel agp support (even though its
indicated in the kernel recompile options). On finding this is
download the xen-2.0-testing (which was said to contain support for
agp ) and built/recompiled as required only to find out that the
kernel barfs on starting X!
pci card (as gotten from lspcidrake )is
Card:Intel 810 : Intel Corporation|82810E CGC [Chipset Graphics
Controller] [DISPLAY_VGA]
and error encounted (support compiled in ) is
kobject_register failed for agpgart-intel (-17)
[<c020c4f0>] kobject_register+0x57/0x65
[<c025d894>] bus_add_driver+0x50/0xc3
[<c025de4d>] driver_register+0x2f/0x33

[<c013694c>] sys_init_module+0x1aa/0x28c
[<c010d908>] syscall_call+0x7/0xb
I got quite a different error when i compiled agp support as a
modules, output was
agpgart: Detected an Intel i810 E Chipset.
Dec 24 21:08:18 Banshee kernel: agpgart: Maximum main memory to use
for agp memory: 103M
Dec 24 21:08:18 Banshee kernel: agpgart: unable to get memory for
graphics translation table.
Dec 24 21:08:18 Banshee kernel: agpgart: agp_backend_initialize() failed.
Dec 24 21:08:18 Banshee kernel: agpgart-intel: probe of 0000:00:00.0
failed with error -12
I''ll be most obliged if this can be treated ASAP as i feel xen is a
great software to make use of and learn from and would like to use it
on X as soon as possible. Thank you.

Yours sincerely

Thank you.The problem with fixing these device-specific problems is that we really need to be able to reproduce them ourselves, and we don''t usually have the hardware available to be able to do that. We know that AGP now works on *some* chipsets, but we don''t have a huge range to test with. Your problem looked like it might be a memory allocation failure. Have you given DOM0 very little memory? Then try giving it a 100M more. Have you given it all the available memory in your system? Then try leaving some more slack for Xen to allocate later. -- Keir ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.

One other possibility is that for some reason the size is being read incorrectly and the driver is trying to allocate 0xffffffff bytes of memory (I''ve seen this happen in other contexts). ron ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
