-Compile using
->make
+Linux AGP GART
-Install using (as root)
->make install
-Note that if your kernel uses symbol versioning, after the new AGPGART module
-is intalled, most likely DRM will not load, complaining about missing symbols
-since DRM still uses the old agpgart symbols.
+Prerequisites
+-------------
-To work around this problem, remove the
-Module.symvers
-file from the kernel sources. Then recompile and reinstall drm.
+If your current kernel has AGP support compiled in (not a module) you'll
+need to build a new kernel with modular AGP support first.

+Compiling
+---------

+Compile with:
+ make
+
+Install (as root):
+ make install

+module is intalled, most likely DRM will not load, complaining about
