I am interested in the replies to this, because I have just ordered an ATI9200
board to replace an aging nvidia based card because I was fed up with the
lack of opensource drivers for it.
My understanding had been that with Xfree v 4.x release the only kernel level
support that was needed with the "dri" interface, and that the video card
drivers then came within the xfree-xserver package. If not, there appears to
be a web site (http://dri.sf.net) where they can be got from (as modules to
xfree).
You seem to be contemplating a different approach - so I am now confused with
what I thought I was going to have to do when my card arrived
