Having the module around is not enough. I was banging my head against
this last week, until I found you have to load it explicitly. Now I've
got intel-agp in my /etc/modules file (this will load the agpgart
module automatically too). Now, if you really want to get graphics
hardware acceleration that's not enough either, you also have to load
the module for your graphics chip (radeon in my case; the one bellow
Direct Rendering Manager in the character devices, not the framebuffer
driver), but set if *after* intel-agp. Good luck and check dmesg for
something like this:
Linux agpgart interface v0.100 (c) Dave Jones
agpgart: Detected an Intel 855GM Chipset.
agpgart: Maximum main memory to use for agp memory: 439M
agpgart: AGP aperture is 128M @ 0xe0000000
[drm] Initialized radeon 1.9.0 20020828 on minor 0
