Are you using the 2.6.0-test? kernel.  If you are I have the same problem
and I don't think that anyone has fixed it yet.  I heard that
2.6.0-test9-mm1 works but mm2 does not.  Googling I have found links to
patches but have no clue how to use them could someone help us out.

http://www.lstud.ii.uib.no/~s864/kernel/drm-agp-module-dependency-fix2.patch

are the links to the patches.

ati-drivers is ati's binary drivers for their firegl line of cards (as  
well as the radeon 8500 and above). It won't work for your rage 128.

You will want to use xfree's ati driver, and if you want 3d  
accelleration, emerge xfree-drm.
