This driver only exists on i386. The amd64-agp.ko module is what you need on
an AMD64 machine.

So where is amd64-agp.ko? This is all agp drivers what I have installed
with kernel package.

pavka@pavka:/mnt/test$ find /lib/modules/ -name *-agp.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.17-10-generic/kernel/drivers/char/agp/intel-agp.ko

It's built directly into the kernel image.

ubuntu-2.6.git/debian/config/amd64% grep AGP_ config
CONFIG_AGP_AMD64=y
CONFIG_AGP_INTEL=m
CONFIG_AGP_SIS=m
CONFIG_AGP_VIA=m
