You could probably leave in glx, without dri that's just software OpenGL
rendering which shouldn't normally have an impact on stability.

Hardly, when DRI is enabled that also affects 2D acceleration, and 3D
instabilities can show up there. In particular, I still suspect that
agpgart is the cause, which is known to be unstable for us yet. Without
it, 2D has been rock solid for me even with DRI enabled, both with a
Rage128 and Radeon Mobility.
