This is what I mentioned under physical size. 
H=313/25.4=12.3" 
V=235/25.4=9.25"
Diagonal size is 15.4". 
Your monitor is recognized as 15". 
You have to change that manually to whatever is visible size of your 19" 
monitor.

Somewhat spartan Section "Modes". 
You can comment out that line too, like this:
#   Modeline     "800x600" 38.34 800 832 928 1024 600 604 608  
624 -HSync  -VSync

The agpgart worked fine in 10.1 with AGP graphic card in old computer. 
As I have nvidia 3D driver installed there too, I can assume that nvagp works 
fine if it is used.
