Not in my case it seems. I tried creating the device node manually (mknod /dev/dri/card0 c 226 0) before starting X, but then X removes it. > > drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0 > > > > drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such device) > > > > 'No such device' usually occurs when the kernel module isn't loaded. That was what I thought at first, but I did have DRM+Radeon enabled in the kernel. I even changed my kernel configuration to have those as modules, but that doesn't change a thing (and it shouldn't). X does load the radeon module though, but still no entry in /dev/dri.
