Hi Maxim,
   An AGP support issue probably. Which kernel are you using? 

   My recommendation (which sounds like you've been doing so I'm not
sure there's any value here.) would be:

1) Build your kernel with support for /dev/agpgart and the right
chipset support under that section. Make them both modular.

2) Set UseInternalGART="no" in xorg.conf

3) Add 

agpgart
agp-XXX
fglrx

(where XXX is the chipset support you built in step #1) to
/etc/modules.autoload/kernel-2.6

4) Do a complete reboot. 

5) Check dmesg and make sure the agp support loaded

6) Re-emerge ati-drivers and ati-drivers-extra. Make sure they really build.

7) Do another reboot.

8) Check lsmod to make sure the modules

9) Check /var/log/xorg.0.log for warnings and errors. 

10) Check glxinfo to see if you're getting acceleration support.

11) Grab a beer.

Good luck,
Mark
