Is there any clear and concise guide to enabling the AGP Bridge? I have been fooling around with it for the longest, but I still can't get it to work. Thanks!

If you have an intel board this will work:

sudo bash
enter your password
cp attached file (compiled from Darwin 8.01 CD) to /System/Library/Extensions
chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions/AppleI386PCI.kext
reboot

I learned this installing the alpha Nvidia driver, which does work.

should this be the only setting in that kext?

<array>
<string>pci8086,2571</string>
</array>

i added this to the existing entires and it showed up as agp.

Depends on your motherboard.
8086 means its an Intel motherboard (Vendor ID)
The second # is the device ID. Other posts tell you how to snoop this in Windows or Linux.
I didn't have to change this to make this kext work for me. I did have to in the nvidia.kext.
