So what can I do to lower memory usage?
Trying to use the Option "AperTexSize" in xorg.conf device-section
doesn't change anything.
Or do I have to hack the intel_agp-code in the kernel? Just tried to
hard-code the return value of the function intel_i9xx_fetch_size, but
then X exits with error "Couldn't bind memory for front buffer".
