It is an AGP card, but the amd64-agp module in 2.6.0-test9 doesn't
detect the VIA K8T800 chipset [1] (agpgart in 2.4.23-pre9 does detect
it, but XFree86 still defaults to pcigart [2]).

Setting "BusType" "AGP" makes no difference.

Just to clarify, it is detected as PCI when using older working also.

[1] I can get it to load by some hand tweaking of some of the tests in
the module, but it still works no better than 2.4.23-pre9.

[2] Someone with the same motherboard is seeing the same problem with agp
not working: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=107805
