Gentoo, ATI Rage 128, Dell Precision 340: msg#00131

Subject: Gentoo, ATI Rage 128, Dell Precision 340

Hi folks,
I'm trying to get DRM enabled on my machine, mostly so I can mess around
with FlightGear :)

I've got a Dell precision 340 with an ATI Rage 128 (32 mg) on the
motherboard. I'm running Gentoo 1.4 rc 4. I've compiled ATI Rage support
into the kernel, and followed the troubleshooting guide in the faq. The
one problem I'm having is that nothing is created in /dev/dri. As you
can see from my log:

drmOpenDevice: minor is 0
drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0
drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such device)
drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such device)
drmOpenDevice: Open failed
drmOpenDevice: minor is 0

This error message repeats 14 times.

Is there something I need to do to get the box to recognize the dri
subsystem?

Thanks,

Rob Whall
