	Oh... So that's what the agpgart module does! Does this mean that the
i810 would perform very well when compared to other vga chipsets on
Linux ???
	
	How come we dont have this module featuring in other popular chipsets
for which full programing data sheet is available like the G200 ?
What about frame buffering and GART ?
