Hi,
I'm a beginner here in Linux, so what I 'm gonna say may not be very useful,
but I'm myself have Matrox Millenium II AGP under Linux RedHat 5.0 (upgraded
to kernel 2.0.35). I also upgraded Xfree86 to 3.3.2 which is the fist revision
to recognize AGP. As far as I can tell, it works really well on my machine
with Xfree86 3.3.2 !
Hope it helps...
