This doesn't seem to work for me:

$ cat /proc/nv/card0
----- Driver Info -----
NVRM Version: 1.0-769
------ Card Info ------
Model:        Riva TNT2 Vanta
IRQ:          11
------ AGP Info -------
AGP status:   Disabled
AGP Driver:
Bridge:       Via MVP3
SBA:          Supported [disabled]
FW:           Unsupported [disabled]
Rates:        2x 1x  [-]
Registers:    0x07000203:0x00000000

>From XF86Config-4:

Section "Device"
    Identifier  "NV AGP"
    VendorName  "nvidia"
    Driver   "nvidia"
    Option  "NvAgp"  "1"
    # update this with the PCI id of your card.  Consult the output
    # of the 'lspci' command.
    BusID       "PCI:1:0:0"
EndSection


Any ideas?
