This, is actually--I think--the setup I have: two PCI R128s on an AGP
G4.  cat /proc/pci shows an AGP bus 0, PCI bus 1, a PCI bus 2 (which
has all of the real devices, including my two R128 video cards) and
most of the internal PCI stuff, and a PCI bus 3.

FYI, on bootup I get some PCI errors related to the video cards:

02:0b.0 is my tulip ethernet chip
