3D accel on r300 cards (9500 and up) is only supported by ati's binary drivers.
The ABI error comes from the fact that you are using a newer driver with a old version of the XFree86 server. you need to upgrade you XFree86 binary. there is one available here: http://dri.sourceforge.net/snapshots/extras/ --- "Gerhard W.
