After upgrade libdrm 2.4.0, I recompile Mesa-7.0.4, for the new libdrm.
(Which I had to delete i915tex from file configs/linux-dri of Mesa
sources, we could say i915tex is not used anymore and can be deleted).
After that I compile xf86-video-intel 2.5 on or for xserver 1.4.2 , and
works nicely on my i915GM.
Thanks.

ah and about kernel version is it safe use kernel 2.6.22 ? , or should I
build drm.ko and i915.ko .
I test it on Fedora kernel 2.6.26 , but I would like packing this on a
Portuguese Linux (www.caixamagica.pt) which is based on Mandriva with
Kernel 2.6.22
