They're Linux kernel modules, included with the XFree86 source (under xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/os-support/linux/drm/). The DRI modules included with the stock Linux kernel are too old to be usable with up-to-date XFree86 versions, even if they do compile. -- Kelledin "If a server crashes in a server farm and no one pings it, does it still cost four figures to fix?"
