           Summary: HD4290 (Asus M4A89GTD/Pro onboard): no DRI
                    (/dev/dri/card0) with CONFIG_DRM_RADEON_KMS enabled
           Product: DRI
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: x86-64 (AMD64)
        OS/Version: Linux (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: DRM/Radeon
        AssignedTo: dri-devel at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: freedesktop at erben.com


I have a Debian (somewhere between unstable and testing) and a homebrewn kernel
(v3.0.1 with vserver 2.3.1-pre9) on my M4A89GTD/Pro. The M4A89GTD/Pro has
HD4290 on-board graphics (RS880). There's no other graphic card installed. For
bootup I have a vesa console framebuffer configured but no radeon (couldn't get
it to work). If I set in my kernel .config file

 CONFIG_DRM_RADEON=y
 CONFIG_DRM_RADEON_KMS=y

a dmesg shows:

 [drm] Initialized drm 1.1.0 20060810

 [drm] radeon kernel modesetting enabled.

Unnecessary to tell, that there are no /dev/dri/* around then. If I unset
CONFIG_DRM_RADEON_KMS I get:

 [drm] Initialized drm 1.1.0 20060810
 [drm] radeon defaulting to userspace modesetting.

and /dev/dri/card0 is present. The Problem however is that the libGL (Debian
libgl1-mesa-glx v7.11-5, xorg v1:7.5+8) has Problems with that:

 $ LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose /usr/bin/glxinfo -b

 ...

The performance of X (measured with glxgears) without KMS (~630 FPS) is better
than with KMS and no DRI (~85 FPS), but there should be more.

Do you have any idea, what I can change?
Or, can I do more to help analyzing this?
