Put the "needed" stuff into your "/etc/modules.conf" file (taken from SuSE):

alias char-major-10-175 agpgart
alias char-major-10-240 agpgarti810     (self explanatory)

# agpgart is i386 only right now
pre-install mga /sbin/modprobe "-k" "agpgart"
pre-install r128 /sbin/modprobe "-k" "agpgart"
pre-install radeon /sbin/modprobe "-k" "agpgart"
#options agpgart agp_try_unsupported=1

Have you verified with an app (gears)?
