It should come along with X11, that's the place where it's being
maintained. If you compiled X from source, you can find the module
sources under
xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/os-support/linux
alternatively, you can get the X11 4.2 DRM modules at
http://www.xfree86.org/~alanh/
However, the DRI is only needed for 3D acceleration and X tends to run
fairly well without it. So getting the right kernel modules might not
solve any immediate problems.
