So yes defaulting to 1x rate (which is all what AGPmode does) should

Unfortunately it does not fix my problem in any way. The chip and mainboard should and do support agp 4x as far as I know and did so in the past. As you can see above, not using "AGPMode 4" freezes the system within several minutes at best.

BUT, I can use AGPx4 with not even one stability issue using the already too many times mentioned USB-Receiver (consider the Device-section removed from xorg.conf). I did "stress" tests and the system is still up and running. The fun part is, if I remove the receiver the screen goes blank immediately and system is gone.

So my conclusion is that not even calling the new default behaviour a workaround really helps me.
