Righto.

OK, so the only solution is to fix the AGP driver to remember the stolen=20
memory address, etc?

The thing is that your GIT version doesn't work either and gives the=20
same error so I am not sure what to try now.

The X log file says DPMS is enabled but doing 'xset dpms force off'=20
doesn't do anything (although when you move the mouse or press a key=20
the whole display refreshes so it appears X thinks it's been off)

=2D-=20
