But, it doesn't work, at least on this hardware.  See pciconf in previous
reply.  And it's hard to debug spontaneous reboots without planting
code somewhere.  Is there an "invariants"-like thing for Xserver?

Noted in reply to first note - agp_amd64 has only AMD, nvidia, and Via
chips mentioned in its table, no ATI.

And dmesg for boot_verbose doesn't mention either agp or drm, as it is.
(from cvsup about 6pm this past evening.)

I think I'll wait for the agp_ati to show in the tree; maybe I could get
ahold of it some other way (I don't have access to any of the internal
repositories).
