Hmm, looks like your system doesn't support ACPI.
Which makes sense for an old box.

Ah, thats an ancient 440FX chipset.  Which doesn't have AGP iirc.
lspci -vv output please. (as root).
It should be just ignoring devices which don't have AGP, and I sent
some patches to Linus just this afternoon that should fix this
scenario, so they'll turn up in a Fedora kernel update soon too.

What ethernet controller is it ? (Again, the lspci output will be needed
for this).
