Do you have the agp device in your kernel config or do
you load as a module? I've seen a machine where the agp module
only worked when loaded at boot time in /boot/loader.conf
(or compiled in the kernel) but it was some time ago and someone 
reported that this crashed his machine :-(.

If you have agp in your kernel, I'm out of ideas...

Oh well, one other thing comes to mind: IIRC, DRI only works for
16bpp and there should be enough memory left for DRI, which means
that you could try lowering your resolution if you have some high
settings, although I don't expect that with 64 MB ;-).
