=== /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old ===
   ...
(WW) intel(0): DRI is disabled because it runs only at 16-bit depth.
   ...
(WW) intel(0): xf86AllocateGARTMemory: allocation of 1024 pages failed
    (Cannot allocate memory)
   ...
(**) intel(0): DPMS enabled
(WW) intel(0): Direct rendering disabled
   ...
(WW) intel(0): xf86UnMapVidMem: cannot find region for [0xb3965000,0x3000000]
FreeFontPath: FPE "/usr/share/fonts/X11/misc" refcount is 2, should be 1; 
fixing.
=== /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old ===

If the default depth in /etc/X11/xorg.conf is changed 
from 24 to 16 direct rendering succeeds.  Appears 
that among all the applications here, xfce4-terminal 
is the only one unable to live without DR.

Two minor problems remain.

=== /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old ===
drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such device or address)
drmOpenDevice: Open failed
drmOpenByBusid: Searching for BusID pci:0000:00:02.0
drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0
drmOpenDevice: open result is 8, (OK)
   ...
(WW) AIGLX: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x23
   ...
(WW) AIGLX: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x32
=== /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old ===

Specifying the location of drmDevice might save 
X from searching for it and specifying absence of 
AIGLX: 3D might also save a little time.

Thanks for the tips,         ... p. crawford
