Hi,

with the patches/linux-2.6.9/{agpgart,drm}.patch patches applied
(shouldn't there be a symlink to linux-2.6.10?) and this ultrasimplitic
(and probably WRONG!) patch, I have agp and the intelfb working in
dom0.  I'll try other domains later today an post my results.  I would
appreciate it if someone who knows the xen agp subsystem (in particular
the agp_acquire_backend) better would look over the intelfb.patch and
post any improvements (I don't like taking out the checks made on
agp_acquire_backend(), but with them left in, I get "intelfb: cannot
acquire agp").

Thanks,
B.
