I just compiled 2.6.4 on my PC, with radeonfb, agpgart and radeon
compiled in, and dri works with both X 4.3.0 and
xserver-xfree86-dri-trunk. My card is:
# lspci
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon RV100 QY
[Radeon 7000/VE]
# lspci -n
01:00.0 Class 0300: 1002:5159
If it matters, my motherboard has an intel 845 chipset.
I haven't tried this with modules.
