If /dev/agpgart support was not configured to be modular then it won't
exist anywhere. You must look in the kernel config file to figure this
out. However, I say this again, I do not beleive that this is required
for X to work. agpgart didn't happen until AGP devices came along. X
works with standard PCI graphics adapters and they don't use agpgart
at all.

You are not wrong. The kernel certainly has enough support to get X
running. Something else is going on. However you haven't posted any
results. What happens when you try to start X? Post the results? What
happens when you try to run xorgconfig? Post the results. No one here
can help by saying the same thing in 5 messages but then you don't
follow the direction.
