[SOLVED] Where to put the Kernel Modules required for Xorg?

At present I am starting Xorg by:

--- Quote ---$ sudo modprobe agpgart
$ sudo modprobe intel-agp
$ sudo modprobe drm
$ startx
--- End quote ---
Where to put these modules to load to start X automatically.

Xorg should load those by itself. The fact it doesn't do it for you is definitely a bug.

I would put those modprobes to /opt/bootlocal.sh, without sudo, because that file is executed as root every boot.

Yes. There are bugs in Xorg 7.4 for intel driver as discovered on Fedora 10 as well.

Thanks. Putting in /opt/bootlocal.sh works for me.

As a temporary workaround, I made a new version of graphics-2.6.26.tcem. Loading it will cause drm, agp, and hopefully also your agp chipset modules to become loaded.

Could you test?

Ok. Tested. Modules agpgart and drm are getting loaded but intel-agp is required to be loaded manually.
