Several weeks ago I asked this list for support to get my radeon 9200 dri working. There were several answers, but the thread went off in a direction that was irrelevent to me. I also was away on business, meaning I couldn't take it further.
I am still failing to get my radeon to work with dri. There was a number of other people having similar problems, that got grouped together under bug no #233582, but there was a patch and a deb containing that patch specified, which I have installed - to no avail. I am running debian kernel-image-2.6.3-1-k7 and the XFree packages from sid (as shown by the start of the log kanger:/home/alan# more /var/log/XFree86.0.log This is a pre-release version of XFree86, and is not supported in any way.
