Do you have "AGPFastWrite" "on" in xorg.conf by any chance? My radeon
card works well with AGP 4 but locks up when fast writes enabled.

That's Radeon 9000 Pro, agp and drm in the kernel, FreeBSD 6.1-Stable,
Xorg, xorg.conf:

% Section "Device"
%         Identifier  "Card0"
%         Driver      "radeon"
%         VendorName  "ATI Technologies Inc"
%         BoardName   "Radeon RV250 If [Radeon 9000]"
%         BusID       "PCI:1:0:0"
%         Option      "AGPMode" "4"
%         Option      "EnablePageFlip" "on"
% EndSection

HTH,

Karol
