Sorry for chiming in here, i’ve passively followed the discussion.

 

If you produce patches for a 3.14 kernel that solve this issue:

(thereby enabling AGP mode on mac mini G4’s, should still be quite a few of them around)

 

you can register me as a happy tester. My "uptime" with a powerpc AGP system is about two minutes  :-) (although the system behaviour has changed somewhat with more recent kernels from a complete lockup to an endless loop).

 

Cheers
