Have you tried with 2.6.18 (current kernel in etch/sid)?

Strange thing is I don't even see a bridge to AGP anywhere.  My only VIA
system is a K8T800Pro not a K8M800 so certainly not the same.  On it I see
the connection to AGP as:
0000:00:01.0 PCI bridge: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8237 PCI bridge [K8T800 South]

Then my VGA card is:
0000:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV34 [GeForce FX 5200] (rev a1)

I would think based on that that your system has the AGP connected as
bus 5 (behind PCI bridge device 0:01.0)  Why the card isn't showing up I
have no idea.  It does seem strange to have so many bridges connected to
apparently no devices (maybe you have lots of empty slots in your
machine).

I am currently running 2.6.11 on that system (don't ask why), so no idea
if that has anything to do with it.
