So until it gets sorted out, people should use UseFBDev.If one uses UseFBDev, does that mean one can't use DRI? I ask because I too have had problems doing anything but UseFBDev, and I haven't figured out the magic to get DRI working either (after following the directions at dri.sourceforge.net etc. a couple of times).

No, it's not enough... But his machine (iMac DV 400, summer 2000) has 8 megs, just like my iMac. And DRI does work (only at 16bpp though, not enough vram for 1024x768@24bpp + memory for textures)
I got it to work eventually, but it requires 16bpp, and one of the older revisions of 2.4.8 made colours go very strange. It is working now (on the iBook2), I can send you the config I use if you want.
I have a XF86Config on my website for the iBook2, just merge with the one for the iMac also on my website:
