Description Andrey V. Panov 2007-08-08 16:46:08 UTC
I try to run x.org with nouveau driver but it does not start since it cannot load dri extention. The dri module is disabled in xorg.conf but driver anyway tries to load it. I compiled and installed git versions of drm, xf86-video-nouveau, mesa on slamd64-current linux distribution (64 bit), linux-2.6.22.1. Proper drm and nouveau kernel modules are loaded.

The nouveau driver depends on DRI being present, and its kernel module.  Not a bug :)

Actually, it probably should've still worked, except your pciid was also missing from the drm.  Please try again with latest git :)
