What packages did you install/compile to get dri working? Apparently,
the Mach64 code is in a state of flux and you should use CVS
(dri-trunk). You could add
deb http://people.debian.org/~daenzer/dri-mach64-sid/ ./
deb-src http://people.debian.org/~daenzer/dri-mach64-sid/ ./
to your sources.list if you are running sid. See
http://wwwhsse.fh-hagenberg.at/Studierende/hse02006/inspiron/node7.html
or google for daenzer mach64 or something like that.
HTH,
David
