Hello,
I have a PC Chips A31G board with AGPro slot and found that nouveau does not
work properly with it. Console works but reverts to software mode, X11 hangs
with mouse cursor only.
The slot is physically AGP 1.5V but is wired to PCI bus as the chipset (SiS
761) does not support AGP cards. To further complicate things, the chipset has
AGP capability - but only for the integrated video. You can see that in the
lspci output below - the AGP card is on bus 0 and SiS card on bus 1 (AGP bus
behind the AGP bridge). The SiS card is not used (can be disabled in BIOS but
it does not improve things - as the AGP capability of the host bridge remains
active).
As seen in dmesg below, kernel tries to set AGP 8x mode for all AGP devices,
including the AGP 4x TNT2 card which is not even connected to the AGP bridge.
Setting nouveau.agpmode=0 makes it work but how can we make this case work
automatically?
Radeon driver does some "ring test" and if it fails, it disables AGP mode and
retries. That seems to work a bit (with R7000 but not with R7200).
But I think that we shouldn't even touch the AGP registers of other devices
in this case as it might break the integrated video.
But how can we know that the card is connected to the AGP bus? There does not
seem to be a reliable way...
