fglrx don't work on 2.6.12.2 kernel ?



Hi,

I'd like to get 3D accelerated on my Dell D600 laptop (intel 855 agp chipset and ATI Radeon 9000 M9 video card 0x4c66) I'm surring on Debian Sarge, with custom vanilla kernel patched with bootsplash and suspend2.

I build fglrx with Flavio's installer (it downloaded from ATI website fglrx-4_3_0-8.14.13-1.i386.rpm version, so I had to manually patch agpgart_be.c and firegl_public.c to get my kernel module...)

So I make a basic XF86config-4 to use fglrx driver instead of ati, with using of external agpgart module (because as fb is enabled at boot-time for splashscreen, I can't unload agpgart !)

Unfortunately, when starting X, fglrx is not able to register agp card (it says :
(EE) fglrx(0): [agp] unable to acquire AGP, error "xf86_ENODEV"
(EE) fglrx(0): cannot init AGP

and of course fglrxinfo says it use mesa :(
I heard fglrx doesn't work well when fb is enabled. Could it be my problem ?

Regards,
