Nothing uses AGPx1 any more - not even the AmigaOne (AGPx2).


Allmost correct, but just use the 1st PCI-solt on the Teron/A1 and
your down to a lovely AGPx1.
1. Make an announcment.
2. Wait a while.
3. Check if it can actually be done.
4. Wait for someone else to do it.
5. Start working on it while giving out hillarious progress-reports.
6. Deny that you have ever announced it
7. Blame someone else

@Panthro

The Articia-chip has 2 busses, one for PCI (3 slots) and one for
AGP/PCI-66. The Teron boards have an AGP and PCI slot connected
to the 2nd bus, and whenever you use that PCI slot the AGP is down
to 1x.

The Pegasos has only 3 PCI slots on the 1st and one AGP on the
2nd bus, making that problem non-existent.
