CONFIG_AGP_ALI: ALI chipset support

General informations

The Linux kernel configuration item CONFIG_AGP_ALI has multiple definitions:

ALI chipset support found in drivers/char/agp/Kconfig

The configuration item CONFIG_AGP_ALI:

• prompt: ALI chipset support
• type: tristate
• depends on: CONFIG_AGP && CONFIG_X86_32
• defined in drivers/char/agp/Kconfig
• found in Linux kernels: 2.5.53–2.5.75, 2.6.0–2.6.39, 3.0–3.19, 4.0–4.20, 5.0–5.19, 6.0–6.8, 6.9-rc+HEAD
• modules built: ali-agp

Help text

This option gives you AGP support for the GLX component of X on the following ALi chipsets. The supported chipsets include M1541, M1621, M1631, M1632, M1641,M1647,and M1651. For the ALi-chipset question, ALi suggests you refer to http://www.ali.com.tw/.

The M1541 chipset can do AGP 1x and 2x, but note that there is an acknowledged incompatibility with Matrox G200 cards. Due to timing issues, this chipset cannot do AGP 2x with the G200. This is a hardware limitation. AGP 1x seems to be fine, though.

This option gives you AGP support for the GLX component of the XFree86 4.x on the following ALi chipsets. The supported chipsets include M1541, M1621, M1631, M1632, M1641,M1647,and M1651. For the ALi-chipset question, ALi suggests you refer to http://www.ali.com.tw/eng/support/index.shtml.

The M1541 chipset can do AGP 1x and 2x, but note that there is an acknowledged incompatibility with Matrox G200 cards. Due to timing issues, this chipset cannot do AGP 2x with the G200. This is a hardware limitation. AGP 1x seems to be fine, though.

You should say Y here if you use XFree86 3.3.6 or 4.x and want to use GLX or DRI. If unsure, say N.
