That's not accurate; the Radeons are AGP devices.  The fact that it is 
integrated is irrelevant.

However, for the most part, there is no difference.  AGP is just a fancier 
version of PCI.

As I recall, there is work going on to eliminate this problem by allowing our 
drivers to claim a whole range of PCI IDs, eliminating the need for 
xf86PciInfo.h.  Is that work present in 4.3.0?
