Hello everyone. Just got the xserver installed from CVS. Everything is
great! Now I am trying to get dri working on my radeon card (7500). Just
got a dri module snapshot and recompiled it using the script provided.
Compilation worked without a problem. However, when I start Xati, I get
the following error:

Failed to Open DRM. DMA won't be used.
Using ATI card:ATI Radeon RV200 QW at PCI:0000:01:00.0
Screen: 16/16 depth/bpp

the xserver did start, but no acceleration is found:
