Are you sure that's the version you have installed? "nm" should give you something like:
> $ nm /usr/lib/libdrm.so |grep DeviceNameFromFd
> 0000000000007a72 T drmGetDeviceNameFromFd

I built it on openSUSE Build Service ("git pull" on 20100210) and installed it on my system (with -debuginfo and -debugsource packages).

GeForce 2 GTS is NV15 - sorry ...

Right, it's stripped, have you tried "nm -D"?

$ nm -D /usr/lib/libdrm.so | grep DeviceNameFromFd
00002b50 T drmGetDeviceNameFromFd

Anything unusual coming out of stderr from your X server?

Created attachment 33324 [details]
kdm.log

"startx -- -verbose 6 -logverbose 6 2> startx.log" generates an empty file.

But I found attached log in "kdm.log" with "broken" commit.

Then /usr/lib/libdrm.so isn't what the linker is pulling in. Are you sure you don't have another libdrm installed somewhere else?

There was a second one in /lib/. A "rm -rf /usr/libdrm*" fixed the problem.
(Maybe legacy issues from the time I was young, stupid and much more unexperienced. Nowadays I am only "and" ...)  ;)

Thanks Francisco for your help and patience and sorry for the noise ...
