Hi all!

I've been 'playin' with Xfree86 for a while now and did not have much problem
with it. It was configured as specified in BLFS book, and it's been OK for me
up to now.

(That first one may be better suited to a DRI mailing list, but I'm not yet
subscribed...)

What I'd now like is to use the latest DRI code on my system. I've understood
there were DRI code in Xfree, but that there was a separate project for DRI.
Up to now I've been using the one in the Xfree CVS. Looks like there still is
a gap between those two. What I can't seem to understand (sorry, I'm a bit
dumb...) is how to 'integrate' the DRI code into my Xfree tree.

-> Is DRI a step beyond Xfree-DRI?
-> Is DRI a 'patch' over the Xfree stuff, or is it a stand-alone code?
-> If 'patch', how do I patch Xfree source with the DRI stuff?
-> If stand-alone, do I first need to install X, or is DRI self-sufficient?

Next I'd like to enable as much functionality for my card (Radeon Mobility
M6 LY, with only 16MiB), and to optimize Xfree for my setup (P4). So I've
created a host.def as per the BLFS book.

-> Where can I find a list and description for every options that can go
   into host.def?
-> If there's no such source, would it be usefull to write one?

Regards,
Yann.
