Ok, dri support is built into the kernel and should be ok (/proc/dri/0 exists)

this doesn't work ... the server is expecting a Rage 128 chipset,
and doesn't accept mine (Rage LT Pro / Mach64) :
(EE) No devices detected.
Fatal server error:
no screens found
so I tried with the 'ati' driver, and the suggested options ... same problem :
the screen is getting black
By looking at the logs, I get the following :
XFree86 Version 4.1.0.1 / X Window System
(protocol Version 11, revision 0, vendor release 6510)
Release Date: 21 December 2001
If the server is older than 6-12 months, or if your card is
newer than the above date, look for a newer version before
reporting problems. (See http://www.XFree86.Org/FAQ)

It seems that the server isn't accepting the "UseFBDev" and "ForcePCIMode"
options
Apart from that, README.DRI only mentions the Rage128 and Radeon chips,
maybe my card isn't supported ?
Is dri really needed (2D acceleration is fine for me) ?
