Actually, deleting the file will solve this problem, so that people with an r6xx or above will again be able to use karmic. Of course, this cannot be a longtime solution, since the mentioned filed has the purpose to enable DRI for r6xx based video cards (which is still in development and not quite stable as we all can see). However, since this is no regression in comparison to jaunty (were DRI did not work either on r6xx and above), I personally prefer a "working" system without DRI over a non-working system.
