It's set to AGP.

Looks like it is:

sam at spider:~$ grep -i agp /var/log/Xorg.0.log
(--) PCI:*(1:0:0) nVidia Corporation NV18 [GeForce4 MX 4000 AGP 8x]  
rev 193, Mem @ 0xe5000000/24, 0xe8000000/27, BIOS @ 0xe7fe0000/17
(**) NVIDIA(0): Option "NvAGP" "1"
(**) NVIDIA(0): Use of NVIDIA internal AGP requested
(II) NVIDIA(0): Detected AGP rate: 8X

Although, I noticed that my card is being reported as a "GeForce4 MX  
4000". I was sure I had an FX5200, but apparently not. Does anyone  
know if this card is any good for HD XvMC?
