You could even have them builtin.
Am I correct to assume the config vars I need are CONFIG_DRM and CONFIG_DRM_RADEON? Also, once those are built does that mean I should remove the DRI section of my XF86Config-4 until I get DRI properly working (perhaps by setting up the dri-trunk debs)? > > Friendly, > > Sven Luther >
