Nope, that sounds correct. If the "1" isn't being respected, its likely 
because AGPGART is built into the kernel (rather than as a module), and thus 
you can't replace it w/NvAGP. Red Hat/Fedora builds AGPGART into their 
kernels. I've not found any compelling reason to use NvAGP over AGPGART 
though.
