Just a ping to confirm the problem still exists with same behaviour and fresh
driver comming from git right now. 

I known this board is rather old and interest might be lower, but in any case
someone use this page to get a work around, here is my report :
(Feel free to ask additionnal information)

(Config is debian lenny's X.Org X Server 1.4.2
Release Date: 11 June 2008
X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0
Build Operating System: Linux Debian (xorg-server 2:1.4.2-10.lenny2)
)
Drivers is 6.12.99 manually compiled

logs :
(II) LoadModule: "radeon"
(II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers//radeon_drv.so
(II) Module radeon: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
        compiled for 1.4.2, module version = 6.12.99
        Module class: X.Org Video Driver
        ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 2.0
(...)
(--) Chipset ATI Radeon 9200SE 5964 (AGP) found
(...)
(==) RADEON(0): Using AGP 8x

xorg.conf :
With a basic section of 
Section "Device"
        Identifier      "Carte vidéo générique"
        Driver          "radeon"
EndSection

lspci :
01:00.1 Display controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV280 [Radeon 9200 SE]
(Secondary) (rev 01)

Trying to force Option "AGPMode" "1" gives :
(EE) RADEON(0): Illegal AGP Mode: 1 (valid values: 4, 8), leaving at 8x

Setting :
Option "AGPMode" "4"
Solves the problem

It looks a regression to me because this machine has been doing well for a few
years with etch with same config and with logs :
X Window System Version 7.1.1
(...)
(WW) RADEON(0): [dri] detected radeon kernel module version 1.19 but 1.23 or
newer is required for full memory mapping.
(...)
(II) Module radeon: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
        compiled for 7.1.1, module version = 4.2.0
        Module class: X.Org Video Driver
        ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 1.0
