You're probably on to something there. I *do* get the "Direct rendering
enabled" message on the Linux setup, although the logs also say that there's
a problem with AGP and that it's falling back to PCI mode.

Anyway, I'm going to google around for hints and see what I can find. It's
probably a question of adding something to kernconf and rebuilding a kernel.

Thanks for the pointer :)
