Do you have tried Ati-Drivers??

Sorry about the mail with html...

I've tried everthing I found on google and the forums and still can't
find the way to make DRI work with my ATI Radeon XPress 200M and the
opensource drivers.

I don't want to install the closed source because I want to use beryl,
and these drivers can't do the job, AFAIK.

So, here I am, trying to figure out what is going wrong. I made
everything I could think of.

My Xorg.conf (the interesting part)
*Code:*

Section Module
   [...]
   Loaddri
   Loaddrm
   Loadglx
   [...]
EndSection

[...]
Section Device
   Identifier  ATI Technologies, Inc. Radeon Xpress 200M (RS480)
   Driver  radeon
   BusID   PCI:1:5:0
   Option  RenderAccel on
   Option  XAANoOffscreenPixmaps true
   Option  AccelMethod XAA
   Option  AccelDFS  1
   Option  GARTSize  64
   Option   AGPMode   4
   Option   EnablePageFlip1
   Option   ColorTiling   1
   Option   dri   true
   Option   AGPFastWrite  1
EndSection

Section DRI
   Mode0666
EndSection
[...]
#composite is disabled



Modules I have enabled in the kernel and that are loaded by
/etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6:
*Code:*

agpgart
amd64-agp
drm #this one was built by emerge x11-drm
radeon #this one too



Dmesg doesn't show anything.

However, /var/log/Xorg.0.log shows this:
*Code:*

[...]

0x5955)

The Direct rendering broken on XPRESS 200 and 200M part makes me
wonder whether or not a workaround exists. What can I do now?

I don't have a .19 kernel to look at, but 0x5955 doesn't show up as a
supported PCI ID in /usr/src/linux/drivers/char/drm/drm_pciids.h.  In
fact, no RS480 cards appear there.  Until/unless the kernel DRM driver
supports it, it won't matter what version of X.org or xf86-video-ati
you install.

This does indicate that the radon driver has specific code that checks for 
your the XPRESS 200M and disables DRI for some reason.  Until driver is 
updated to remove that restriction, you will not be able to use DRI.

If you feel like experimenting, you might try an testing or masked version 
of x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati, which provides the radeon driver for Xorg.  
Though, my box shows no versions available that is greater than stable.
