No, there are 2 drivers needed one for your AGP bridge, and the other
for your AGP card. The second one you already know, it's the radeon.
The first one is the Intel controller which enables communication with
your AGP card, and on T40p it's Intel-based, here's a lspci:
00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corp. 82855PM Processor to AGP Controller (rev 03)

I use (lsmod):
intel_agp 18076 1
Usually, modprobe searches for "-" and "_".
