[drm:mga_init] *ERROR* Cannot initialize the agpgart module

Trying to get dri working with a Matrox G450
on 4.8-RELEASE

The first thing I tried was the drm-kmod port.

Next, I downloaded the patch from:
http://people.freebsd.org/~anholt/dri/
and built the module (mga.ko)

agp is built in to the GENERIC kernel, but
I also tried loading the module in loader.conf

I also updated to -STABLE as of 4/17/03 and tried the
same thing again. (but not drm-kmod port again... hmm)


When I try to load mga.ko I get this:

drm0: <Matrox G400/G450 (AGP)> mem 0xe9000000-0xe97fffff,\
0xe8000000-0xe8003fff,0xe4000000-0xe5ffffff irq 11 at device \
0.0 on pci3
error: [drm:mga_init] *ERROR* Cannot initialize the agpgart module.
device_probe_and_attach: drm0 attach returned 12

There is nothing in the dmesg mentioning agp, other than the original
line about the video card:

pci3: <Matrox MGA G400 AGP graphics accelerator> at 0.0 irq 11

so I am worried I might have an "unsupported AGP chipset"
How can I tell for sure one way or the other?


A couple of likely useful sections of scanpci -vv
say:

pci bus 0x0000 cardnum 0x1e function 0x00: vendor 0x10de device 0x01e8

and

  BYTE_0    0x20  BYTE_1  0x11  BYTE_2  0x0a  BYTE_3  0x40


but I am not sure what to do with any of that.

So, I have still to try:  ports/drm-kmod/ again after updating
to -STABLE and removing agp from the kernel and just loading
it from the module.

Any other hints appreciated.
