I question whether that would work, without knowing what hardware (motherboard, videocard) is involved, especially when I hear the word 'genkernel'. To me, errors in agpgart first suggest that either support for your motherboard's agp chipset is not compiled into the kernel, or --if compiled as a module, is not loaded; and secondly, the outside chance that-- if using an ATI card-- the InternalAGPGART setting is wrong; set to YES when it should be set to NO because you have to use your motherboard's kernel module (but this does not usually result in X.org not starting, just complaints in the logs), or set to NO when it should be set to YES because you don't use your motherboard's kernel support, so no agpgart is being loaded at all (which I would imagine would prevent X from starting). What does dmesg or /var/log/messages say about agpgart? Did it try to load and fail? What does lsmod say is loaded? If nothing, can you modprobe your agpgart module? What is your mobo and video card? If an ATI or nVidia video card, did you re-emerge the drivers after compiling the kernel? Basically, I'd just like to confirm that genkernel didn't drop the ball.
