What I didn't add was that I will need direct access to the frame buffer and pixmap memory from the X server for the foreseeable future; there's always something I can't do through an underlying API and need direct access. Having AGP memory management should let me DMA bits between video and AGP space safely which would make CPU rendering quite a bit faster. -keith
