Improvement and error GONE
I've just copied the below into a new xorg.conf file and behold! the error with regards to AGP are gone.
dmesg : states the xserver is falling back to kernel-AGP support, appearing so, this is not a driver issue but rather a kernel issue.
Half-Life still does not run and neither is GL-Desktop enable-able but that i'll investigate further asap.

I had pretty much the same symptoms.
XGL has still problem :
Code:
fgl_glxgears
Using GLX_SGIX_pbuffer
X Error of failed request: GLXUnsupportedPrivateRequest
Major opcode of failed request: 144 (GLX)
Minor opcode of failed request: 16 (X_GLXVendorPrivate)
Serial number of failed request: 42
Current serial number in output stream: 43
Bu AIGLX is very fast!
I had also corruption on screen, which are fixed now.
compiz has a problem with windows manager. If I use instead beryl, all is fine. I tested OpenGL Performance with Quake4... compare to 8.40.4 it's turbo bust!
here my xorg.conf

I got this problem as well.
I'm having a black screen, freezing problem with fglrx as well. Here's what I think is relevant:
-ati radeon x1950 pro agp
-nforce3 chipset
I couldn't find an AGP aperture setting in the bios.
Right now I'm using radeonhd. It'd be nice if I had XVideo working, so I could watch things in mplayer with scaling.
