Which GPU do you have? The NV40 AGP board (GeForce 6800) works particularly poorly. However as long as you go with 4k pages (and there's no real benefit to 64k pages for most applications), basic things should work. I wouldn't recommend using a GL-based compositor though. Which distortion are you talking about?
