Well, I did a new 'git bisect' - and if you ask me - it is still broken.

It's conclusion was this time:

hikaru:/usr/src/kernel/git/linux-2.6>git bisect bad

Personally I am convinced that the real problem is with
8888985144db8f4cb7e56154b31bdf233d3550bf

    [AGPGART] intel_agp: fix device probe
    
    This patch trys to fix device probe in two cases. First we should
    correctly detect device if integrated graphics device is not enabled
    or exists, like an add-in card is plugged. Second on some type of intel
    GMCH, it might have multiple graphic chip models, like 945GME case, so
    we should be sure the detect works through the whole table.

The result of this patch is that the kernel starts to print
"agpgart: Detected an Intel 965G Chipset." again with the usual
disastrous results. Now, that doesn't mean that this patch is
wrong - but it explains why the problem returns after this patch.
