Still can't get dri to work with Radeon 9200



Several weeks ago I asked this list for support to get my radeon 9200 dri 
working.  There were several answers, but the thread went off in a direction 
that was irrelevent to me.  I also was away on business, meaning I couldn't 
take it further.

I am still failing to get my radeon to work with dri.  There was a number of 
other people having similar problems, that got grouped together under bug no 
#233582, but there was a patch and a deb containing that patch specified, 
which I have installed - to no avail.

I am running debian kernel-image-2.6.3-1-k7 and the XFree packages from sid
(as shown by the start of the log

kanger:/home/alan# more /var/log/XFree86.0.log

There are two areas that are I would like to track down as to what the problem 
is.

Firstly, I get the following during boot

[drm] Initialized radeon 1.9.0 20020828 on minor 0
[drm:radeon_cp_init] *ERROR* radeon_cp_init called without lock held
[drm:radeon_unlock] *ERROR* Process 1638 using kernel context 0
atkbd.c: Unknown key released (translated set 2, code 0x7a on isa0060/serio0).
atkbd.c: This is an XFree86 bug. It shouldn't access hardware directly.
atkbd.c: Unknown key released (translated set 2, code 0x7a on isa0060/serio0).
atkbd.c: This is an XFree86 bug. It shouldn't access hardware directly.


Secondly, my /var/log/XFree86.0.log contains the following lines

(II) RADEON(0): [drm] loaded kernel module for "radeon" driver
(II) RADEON(0): [drm] created "radeon" driver at busid "PCI:1:0:0"
(II) RADEON(0): [drm] added 8192 byte SAREA at 0xe0f43000
(II) RADEON(0): [drm] mapped SAREA 0xe0f43000 to 0x4840a000
(II) RADEON(0): [drm] framebuffer handle = 0xc0000000
(II) RADEON(0): [drm] added 1 reserved context for kernel
(WW) RADEON(0): [agp] AGP not available
(II) RADEON(0): [drm] removed 1 reserved context for kernel
(II) RADEON(0): [drm] unmapping 8192 bytes of SAREA 0xe0f43000 at 0x4840a000


which seems to be why drm is not working - but agpgart is definately loaded - 
thus

kanger:/home/alan# lsmod | grep agpgart
agpgart                32168  0
kanger:/home/alan#

The only related message in syslog showing it loading is this.

Feb 29 09:47:02 kanger kernel: Linux agpgart interface v0.100 (c) Dave Jones



Thanks in advance for any help as to what is going wrong here.
