Speaking of DRI, I have an ATI 200M. Using clean install of xorg driver, I see this:
(WW) RADEON(0): Enabling DRM support
[...] drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0 drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such device or address) [ repeat 255 times ...] (II) RADEON(0): [drm] drmOpen failed (EE) RADEON(0): [dri] DRIScreenInit failed. Disabling DRI.
I think I mentioned this here before, and IIRC someone else said they have exactly the same result. Is this expected behavior?
/sbin/lsmod Module Size Used by radeon 141665 0 drm 117481 1 radeon
drm is loaded, but there are no /dev/dri/<anything>
