Neither XFree86 nor X.org supports AGP 8x, and unless vendors get more 
involved with development it is unlikely it will happen anytime soon.

I highly recommend "Built by ATI" genuine Radeon 9200 specifically, 
because it is fairly cheap, and supported by the Open Source drivers of 
xorg-x11 in FC2.  It worked fairly well for me in FC1 after updates too.

Do some research about exactly which Radeon 9200 to buy though, because 
I read something about the "SE" version not working.

No.
