The appropriate section of my 2.4.0-test8 (test9 bombed in compilation
for me) kernel config is:

CONFIG_DRM=y
# CONFIG_DRM_TDFX is not set
# CONFIG_DRM_GAMMA is not set
CONFIG_DRM_R128=y
# CONFIG_DRM_I810 is not set
# CONFIG_DRM_MGA is not set

and 

CONFIG_AGP=y
CONFIG_AGP_INTEL=y
CONFIG_AGP_I810=y
# CONFIG_AGP_VIA is not set
# CONFIG_AGP_AMD is not set
# CONFIG_AGP_SIS is not set
# CONFIG_AGP_ALI is not set


Is there an invocation sequence necessary to get things going, or if
the if the fb starts are things good to go?
