neomagic & DRI



Hello all, 

I am having trouble getting DRI working on my box, and I was hoping one
of you X gurus have an idea.

I have a thinkpad laptop, with a neomagic video card that lspci
identifies as: 
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Neomagic Corporation [MagicMedia 256AV] (rev 12)

I am running X4.2 (upgraded to try to solve this).  Relevant parts of
XF86Config-4:

Section "Module"
        Load    "GLcore"
        Load    "bitmap"
        Load    "dbe"
        Load    "ddc"
        Load    "dri"
        Load    "extmod"
        Load    "freetype"
        Load    "glx"
        Load    "int10"
        Load    "record"
        Load    "speedo"
        Load    "type1"
        Load    "vbe"
EndSection

Section "Device"
        Identifier      "NeoMagic"
        Driver          "neomagic"
EndSection


Section "DRI"
        Mode    0666
EndSection

And:

steve:~$ grep WW /var/log/XFree86.0.log
        (WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.
steve:~$ grep EE /var/log/XFree86.0.log 
         (WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.
(II) Loading extension MIT-SCREEN-SAVER
         
No errors or warnings in the logs.  However:

steve:~$ LIBGL_DEBUG='verbose' glxinfo
name of display: :0.0
libGL: XF86DRIQueryExtension failed
display: :0  screen: 0
direct rendering: No

Video is _OK_, but a little slow and choppy.  I know it's not a
particularly good video card, but I was hoping I could coax a little
better out of it.  I have kernel support for mtrr's and DRI for X4.1,
and agpgart is enabled and modprobe'd.  Googling for the above error
message only leads to a bunch of links about lack of agpgart support,
but it loads without errors.  Anyone have any ideas?

TIA,
Steve
