I did. If I patch the kernel, my compiling procedure is always as follows:
================== make clean make mrproper make menuconfig make dep make modules make bzlilo make modules_install shutdown -r now ==================
The module loads fine. In /var/log/messages there are reports of detecting AGP 3.5 compatible hardware, but as I said, X just won't start properly and will report AGP 4X mode.
I checked /proc/driver/nvidia, and it reports AGP 8X hardware and everything.
I was thinking, I have not tested the nvidia kernel module with the 2.5 kernel. There is an unofficial patch for getting it to compile. I might give it a try to see if it works, but that won't happen soon.
If anyone wants to give it a try, visit:
