% any new devices in /dev/ needed to correspond to this?
None that you create - the modules and kernel take care of this for you. For the record, I have:
$ ls -lR /dev/dri crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 226, 0 Dec 23 14:17 card0
and this happens without devfs?
Naturally, if it breaks, you get to keep both pieces. It's always Just Worked (c) here. With the i810, the manual page says you only get harware-accelerated 3D via DRI at 16bpp color. I'm unclear, however, if you get DRI at other depths (well, 24bpp) if you don't care about hardware-accelerated 3D -- I've got Matrox and NVIDIA cards here, so I have no problems in that regard.
i run at 16bpp anyway, so this is fine with me. i'm guessing that you're flying smoothly with XFree86-4.3.0? thanks.
