fglrx has AGP chipset specific tweaks which aren't feasible in the
radeon driver. Unfortunately, we haven't found a failsafe default AGP
configuration that works everywhere, the most reliable one seems to be
to leave the rate unchanged from what the BIOS set it to. So if that
doesn't work for you, I'm afraid you'll have to change it in the BIOS
setup or xorg.conf.
