Regression with xf86-video-ati and ati-1-0-branch

[Rune Petersen]

it also works for me I get x8 AGP, but this message from agpgart tells 
me that all is not well:

agpgart: X tried to set rate=x12. Setting to AGP3 x8 mode.

x12 looks wrong for some reason =)

P.S

I'm quite happy with the new memmap...
