Folks, there are obviously some problems with AGP on the Irongate
chipsets. Those drivers were written without full documentation and
given the reports it seems clear there's something wrong.

We've been talking to AMD over the last 6-9 months about having them
fund some work to fix these issues, but I've finally heard that's not
going to happen. They are looking at potentially doing the work in
house. 

Although I'm happy to have people try to work the technical issues here,
the best bet may be to talk directly to AMD about it.
