X not starting when using dri model with Radeon 9200

[John Covici <covici@ccs.covici.com>]

Hi.  I am having a problem -- if I allow the XF86Config-4 to load dri
using my Radeon 9200 card, it hangs up and I am stuck in the X console
and have to reboot the machine to continue.  If I take out the dri,
gnome comes up normally.  I am using kernel 2.6.9.

Here is the lspci -v output for the card.

Any assistance would be appreciated.
