Jan, I'm a little out of the loop in the DRI scene as of lately as I'm quite busy with my PhD (I'm still trying to catch the DRI mailing lists posts sent during the christmas vacations).
I don't recall hearing any success using mach64 with kernel 2.6, and I don't know exactly what does it takes to make it work. It's probably not much besides backporting some changes from the trunk into the mach64 branch. But in anycase I don't have the time to find that out right now. I'm CC'ing to the [EMAIL PROTECTED] . I'm sure someone there can provide a little more info about this. Sorry I can't be of more assistance.
