4096K is not enough. The FAQ at the DRI home page indicates somewhere
between 10000K and 16384K is the preferred value.

% rebuilt 2.4.20 with DRM support, and also compiled the relevant i810

% agpgart                21728   7 (autoclean)

Looks good here.

% this doesn't appear to be supported by i810 as far as i can tell.

MTRR support? I'm quite at a loss.
