Thanks for the info Jonathan,  I too have 815, but on my new Viao
FX290.  I've seen conflicting instructions for getting it working. 
Specifically, I saw on the XFree86 mailing lists, that the agpgart.ko
module was needed, but it is only in -CURRENT.  I have the source for
it, but haven't been able to figure out how to compile it in.

Rob.
