Just to update on the below, after Sending I double-checked if HP AGP was actually selected in the Kernal config.. which it wasnt, doh! With that on and hp-agp forced to load as a module that bit is ok, but with KMS enabled I get no screen and instant beeping error.
With no KMS I get: [ 275.231] drmOpenByBusid: drmGetBusid reports pci:0000:80:00.0 [ 275.231] (II) [drm] DRM interface version 1.4 [ 275.231] (II) [drm] Mapping SAREA for DRM lock failed. [ 275.231] (EE) RADEON(0): [dri] DRIScreenInit failed. Disabling DRI. This is with Emeric's patch on hp-agp , same no matter I think. I think Ill try the other AGP card again (above still with R300).
