So in your case you'd need the 'ALI chipset support' option, probably as a 
module.  You'd then modprobe ali-agp.  This is the relevant kernel help.  So 
it *should* support your motherboards chipset.

          This option gives you AGP support for the GLX component of
          XFree86 4.x on the following ALi chipsets.  The supported chipsets
          include M1541, M1621, M1631, M1632, M1641,M1647,and M1651.
          For the ALi-chipset question, ALi suggests you refer to
          <http://www.ali.com.tw/eng/support/index.shtml>.
