RE: 8x AGP under linux?

[Tolentino, Matthew E]

Casey, I can send you the 2.4 patch for the E7205/E7505 chipsets that I posted a while back that also incorporates AGP 3.0 support if you are interested.  However as Dave mentioned, I did have quite a bit of trouble with the Nvidia 8x binary only driver, so ymmv....
