Ali, I must give you credit for doing your homework! You really do your reshearch! Good job. I don't blame you for interpreting the documentation that way, but consider the statement

"(i.e., A.G.P. is seen as another PCI bus from a configuration point of view)."

From a configuration point of view... That doesn't make it a PCI to PCI bridge. To be a PCI bridge you need 2 PCI busses. The AGP port is not a PCI bus so how can it be a PCI to PCI bridge, except from a configuration point of view?

Quoting again from the manual:

"(The term "virtual" is used to designate that
no real physical embodiment of the PCI-to-PCI
Bridge functionality exists within PAC, but that
PAC's internal configuration register sets are organized
in the particular manner to create that impression
to the standard configuration software.)"

I do give you credit for finding this. Let me know when I can return the 30 minutes of research. Good job.
