On which version of linux are you looking. Currenly I am working on 2.6.34
and it is very much there. You have to enable the following in the same
order

Device Drivers -> /dev/agpgart (AGP Support)   /* Enable as* **         */

Device Drivers -> /dev/agpgart (AGP Support)->Intel 440LX/BX/GX, I8xx and
E7x05 chipset support  /* Enable as *M* */

Device Drivers -> Graphics Support -> Direct Rendering Manager (XFree86
4.1.0 and higher DRI support)  /* Enable as *M *      */

Device Drivers -> Graphics Support -> Direct Rendering Manager (XFree86
4.1.0 and higher DRI support) -> Intel 830M, 845G, 852GM, 855GM, 865G /*
Enable as *M **/

Device Drivers -> Graphics Support -> Direct Rendering Manager (XFree86
4.1.0 and higher DRI support) ->  i915 driver (New) /* Enable as *M **/

Regards,
Prabhu
