So, there's three separate issues here.
1. Should the DDX use the DRM to assist with 2D acceleration?
2. How should the server respond to the client's
is-direct-rendering-capable request?
3. What is the name of the client-side direct-rendering driver?
The second question is irrelevant. If the answer can ever be yes, just
make it yes and let the client-side libGL sort it out.
For the second question, I believe that there is already an option for
that for the R100 & R200 chips. In either case, this is a good thing to
have a non-experimental option for.
For the thrid question would make an acceptable experimental option
during development.
