Hi folks, I have the following in xserver-xfree86.config:
# server modules to load
# XXX: damnit, explicitly loading the dri module is broken for sunffb users
:-P
db_get xserver-xfree86/config/device/driver
if [ "$ARCH" = "sparc" ] && [ "$RET" = "sunffb" ]; then
MODULE_LIST="GLcore, bitmap, dbe, ddc, extmod, freetype, glx, int10,
record, speedo, type1, v4l, vbe, xtt"
else
MODULE_LIST="GLcore, bitmap, dbe, ddc, dri, extmod, freetype, glx, int10,
record, speedo, type1, v4l, vbe, xtt"
fi
This dates back to XFree86 4.1.0:
xfree86 (4.1.0-17) unstable; urgency=low
[...]
* debian/xserver-xfree86.config:
[...]
- do not explicitly load the "dri" module on the sparc architecture if the
sunffb driver is being used, because of an apparent upstream bug in the
module loader (thanks, Ben Collins)

Can someone who uses the sunffb driver tell me if this is still
necessary with XFree86 4.3.0? I'd like to take that kludge out.
