To get the 2.4.21-rc1 DRI configuration to include RADEON, you need to
edit drivers/char/drm/Config.in thusly:
REPLACE:
dep_tristate ' ATI Radeon' CONFIG_DRM_RADEON $CONFIG_AGP
WITH:
if [ "$CONFIG_ALPHA" = "y" ]; then
tristate ' ATI Radeon' CONFIG_DRM_RADEON
else
dep_tristate ' ATI Radeon' CONFIG_DRM_RADEON $CONFIG_AGP
fi
It will ONLY ask for RADEON if AGP is already configured, which most
Alphas don't need.

Dunno if this is because the FB driver was selected or not. I've
always NOT used FB, and have been successful with the PCI 7500.
