I've tried both approaches, radeon.conf and kernel parameter but no
luck. I did notice change in the amount of stretch though. In my case
agpmode=4 was only twice as wide as it should be. I've got ATI
Technologies Inc R520GL [FireGL V7200].
I've briefly checked Ubuntu 11.10 but the driver crashed

Here's simple tcl script that shows the problem.

Had similar problems with the RV410 AGP card. Passing the parameter via
grub command line did not work but for me this worked:
echo options radeon agpmode=1 /etc/modprobe.d/radeon.conf
update-initramfs -u
the last one is necessary to get the option into the initramfs-image. Of cource
you can
After a month of idle time, are there some news? This problem is still

I've tried the following:
First I removed /etc/X11/xorg.conf (my failsave)
In file /etc/default/grub I appended the line
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=quiet splash to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=quiet
splash radeon.agpmode=X where X = -1,1,2,4,8. Then a update-grub and a fresh
reboot after each X
Aha, found out more info... For kms, agpmode is a kernel module
parameter. try booting with radeon.agpmode=X where X = -1,1,2,4,8
1-8 are the agp modes,
-1 uses the onboard gpu gart (PCI, PCIE, etc.)

Thanks for doing such thorough testing! Shame it didn't reveal a simple
AGPMode setting issue, but I think the bug report's ready for the next
step to go upstream.

At first: Thank you very much for the detailed hints!
The system is all factory hardware, no parts have been replaced (it is still
sealed).
Stickers say: Hardware: Acer Aspire E500 EB7S, video card ATI Radeon X700 SE.
No hints for AGP or not...
At first I've tried all possible values with your

Sorry, ignore my last comment, I mis-posted.
We'll send your bug report up after you've tested the AGPMode stuff.
Btw, a minimalistic xorg.conf to do this would be:
Section Device
Identifier Configured Video Device
Option AGPMode 2
EndSection
Section Monitor
Identifier Configured
