Actually, if you want to use the nvidia agpgart drivers, agpgart support
should be a module. Depending on your nvidia options, it will be loaded
when the nvidia module is loaded, or nvidia will handle agpgart itself.
>From the README:
X Config Options
Option "NvAGP" "integer"
Configure AGP support. Integer argument can be one of:
Value Behavior
-------------- ---------------------------------------------------
0 disable AGP
1 use NVIDIA's internal AGP support, if possible
2 use AGPGART, if possible
3 use any AGP support (try AGPGART, then NVIDIA's
AGP)
If agpgart is compiled into the kernel, only 2 will work.
