you can build with 2.0 no prob, u must ge tthe right driver though there are several versions. You can find it in the XF86 3.3.6 source distribution. or you can download it from me: http://www.firetrail.com/~aphro/agpgart-source.tar.gz make sure the version-test.sh is executable when compiling it or it will puke. ive used this on about 10 different boxes. brchuc >For the best stability, would it be better to try to keep glibc 2.0 and brchuc >build the driver on slink, or would the best solution to be to upgrade to brchuc >potato, which has kernel 2.2 and glibc2.1, but is not the stable version and brchuc >just install the binary from Intel?
