The Linux kernel sources will be updated with the XFree 4.1 modules some
time soon. I don't think separating them is a good idea. The problem is
that if you're outside the kernel you have a much harder time tracking
the kernel changes. We've discussed it. It has pluses and minuses, but I
think having it in the kernel is a better choice.
Your problem is that radeon_drv.o isn't the kernel module, it's just one of
the .o files. You need radeon.o
The correct directory is:
xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/os-support/linux/drm/kernel
You can do a compile in that directory even if you haven't built all of
X.
