Guys, with the help of this group I was able to get the openchrome
drivers installed and working with Ubuntu Gutsy and a VIA integrated
P4M900 graphics chip.  However, I've noticed that video playback is
very CPU intensive and often stutters.  While investigating I
determined that DRI isn't enabled.

/* From glxinfo */
libGL error: XF86DRIQueryDirectRenderingCapable returned false
direct rendering: No (If you want to find out why, try setting
LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose)
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
/* -- */

/* From Xorg.0.log */

(II) OPENCHROME: Driver for VIA Chrome chipsets: CLE266, KM400/KN400,
	K8M800/K8N800, PM800/PM880/CN400, P4M800Pro/VN800/CN700,
	K8M890/K8N890, P4M900/VN896/CN896, CX700/VX700, P4M890

Attached is the output of dmesg, Xorg.0.log and xorg.conf.  As always,
any help is appreciated.
