Actually, the k8m890 chipset is new enough that the kernel does not
recognize the pci-id for it yet.  We have submitted patches and are
working with kernel developers to get this fixed.  The i386 patch for
via-agp.c is attached to bug 82, I am not sure if a patch for
amd64-agp.c is posted yet for x86_64 systems.
