The quick'n'dirty solution is to use --force-overwrite, the cleaner one to disable the DRM in the kernel. Once the new DRM is installed, the DRI should work. PS: You're aware that the r128 DRI would also work with XFree86 4.1 or 4.2 and the DRM from the kernel? -- Earthling Michel Dänzer (MrCooper)/ Debian GNU/Linux (powerpc) developer XFree86 and DRI project member / CS student, Free Software enthusiast
