I assume you mean a binary snapshot from dri.sf.net? They currently suffer from binary compatibility issues, see the dri-devel archives for details. However, there's a much better solution: deb http://penguinppc.org/~daenzer/debian/dri-trunk/ ./ Install the xserver-xfree86-dri-trunk package and build the DRM from the drm-trunk-module-src package. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer (MrCooper)/ Debian GNU/Linux (powerpc) developer XFree86 and DRI project member / CS student, Free Software enthusiast
