Yes, I could use 2.6-x and help test that, but like so many people, I need to have something reliable so I can get some work done.
FWIW, I installed 2.6.0-test3 and it seems to work well. After grabbing a later version of the ATI drivers (which are needed for 2.6 compatibility), the AGP was set up correctly and I'm back in X. I'm not seeing any stability problems so far.
How did you get the ATI drivers to build with the 2.6 kernel? I got all kinds of nasty errors when I tried them. Are you using the Schneider drivers, which version?
Dunno what they're called, but I'm using Gentoo Linux, which has reached 4.3.0-3.2.0 in terms of ATI fglrx drivers. The tarball can be downloaded from Gentoo mirrors, but apparently not from ATI themselves.
That version compiles and works with 2.6, although I'm seeing some unclean behaviour that really should be fixed.
I'm copying this to the list, because this is at least the second request I've had on this subject.
