Hmmm, talking to myself again. ;-) I figured this one out. It was not
the version of the DRM drivers, but rather I did not have the right
agpgart driver. The GX240 seems to require CONFIG_AGP_I810 rather than
just CONFIG_AGP_INTEL. I have both marked yes and now lsmod shows:
Module Size Used by Not tainted
r128 84032 1
agpgart 20224 3
So they are actually getting used and X works fine. I also have:
Option "UseFBDev" "true"
in my XF86Config-4 "Device" section.
