We get that message all the time if we have AGPSize set in XF86Config to
a size bigger than the actual GART size set in the BIOS.  For example,
if the GART is set to 64 and AGPSize is set to 128.  The fact that X
can't read the GART size from /dev/agpart automatically is really annoying
by the way.
