Specific to this bug where X never starts, rather than lockups after starting, I have more recent (Ubuntu 12.04) logs in downstream https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg- video-r128/+bug/1023975
Only workarounds I have found are to ForcePCIMode or Disable DRI. Could this be a uninorth_agp problem? Without really understanding what I am reading, the "AGP apterture is 256M @ 0x0" and "AGP V2 device into 0x mode" seem strange to me.
