Accelerated GL is not supposed to work.  Expect things to break if you
mix --enable-dri and --enable-glx.

As far as "Failed to open DRM," you need to load the DRM before running
Xati if you want to use the DMA features.  kdrive doesn't have the
module-loading code that XFree86 does to do it automatically.
