Re: nknbi-linux --append




Hello everybody,

this is a little bit off topic, but:

I've got a 128 MB dless-workstation and the AGP-Aperture is set to 64 MB
by default.
Since it did not detect all 128 MB but 64 MB I added mem=128M to the
append
line. Then linux works fine. But I sometimes have strange effects with
my AGP-Card...
What does AGP-Aperture mean and to what value should I set it?

Thanks,

Michael Hierweck
