Okay! I dropped it on top of a working (sans DRI) Sarge/Sid XFree86, getting
the xserver-xorg package from a link at apt-get.org. It did not go smoothly,
but eventually I got an X server that says "Direct rendering enabled" in the
Xorg.log. Yay! But running glxinfo says "direct rendering: No", and
glxgears says "failed to open DRM: Operation not permitted". It doesn't say
why.
Running glxinfo as root tells a different story- says "direct rendering: Yes"
but running glxgears locks up the computer.
