The AMD_IOMMU symbol is not something one can enable for the i386 version of the kernel according to Kconfig:

config AMD_IOMMU
        bool "AMD IOMMU support"
        select SWIOTLB
        depends on X86_64 && PCI && ACPI

Also from the dmesg.log attached above, the agp gart seems to be found and configured ok:

[...]

[ 12.153706] agpgart: Detected AGP bridge 0

So its not clear turning on more gart support is the issue here. We can also see that your graphics card was picked up here (from your lspci output):

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: ATI Technologies Inc RV280 [Radeon 9200 PRO] [1002:5960] (rev 01)

Now I do note that this does show the AGP aperture as 32MB, and from your Xorg.log, you seem to have configured it to be 64MB:

(==) RADEON(0): Default visual is TrueColor
(**) RADEON(0): Option "AGPMode" "8"
(**) RADEON(0): Option "GARTSize" "64"
[...]
(**) RADEON(0): Using AGP 8x
(II) RADEON(0): [agp] Mode 0x1f000a0a [AGP 0x1106/0x0282; Card 0x1002/0x5960]
(II) RADEON(0): [agp] 65536 kB allocated with handle 0x00000001
(EE) RADEON(0): [agp] Could not bind
(EE) RADEON(0): [agp] AGP failed to initialize. Disabling the DRI.

Can you check if this is a real option in your Xorg.conf configuration file, and if so try and disable that for the i386 boot?
