OK so your card will do 4X AGP but your motherboard only 2X. IIRC, there 
is an option in /etc/modules.d/nvidia where you can force 2X AGP on VIA 
chipsets. There may be something similar for AMD. Post the above file 
and we might find something there. A quick search on google found 
http://gatos.sourceforge.net/livid-ati/2001-October/msg00027.html
which seems to indicate that you mak be locked to AGP 1X due to lockups 
experienced with your chipset. You might look to see if there is a line 
there that seems to limitAGP. Comment it out and restart X. Do: 
cat /proc/driver/nvidia/agp/status again and see if that helps. Then run 
glxgears for 5 minutes or so to see if you lock up. If it locks, 1X is 
going to be your limit, I'm afraid.
