That did it! You are awesome. thank you.
I found at this url: http://www.xfree86.org/pipermail/xpert/2002-February/015571.html
that you can add this to your xf86config file:
Option "XvMCSurfaces" "6"
in the device section. And it will fix dri on the i810. But we really

The patch can be found here:
http://www.xfree86.org/pipermail/xpert/2002-February/015571.html
and it's listed in the cvs changelog here:
http://www.xfree86.org/cvs/changes.html
"135. Fix enabling of DRI when XvMC is disabled (#5208, Matthew
Sottek, Intel).:
