There is a kernel module for r128 and DRI, and agpgart as weel. If you have an AGP card, and want accelerated graphics, you'll have to compile the modules, or compile them into the kernel. kpkg does a very nice job of this if you're running a stock debian kernel, or if you've never done this sort of thing. Note that these options are only available in 2.4.x kernels. If you don't want to upgrade your kernel, X should run just fine without it, but you won't have accelerated graphics. > Don't worry about that.

It's looking for devfs, do you have it installed? If not, change the netry in XF86Config-4, as explained below. > Yep, or where ever your mouse device is.
