I seem to have bought a recent release of the Radeon 8500  that the DRI 
code doesn't recognize.  So, I've been trying to build the DRI code to 
try to learn a bit about what's going on and maybe get X working with my 
card.

One thing that I've run across, and possibly Karl Meisterheim as well 
(from an earlier post in the dri-user list)  is the compiler error:

gcc: cannot specify -o with -c or -S and multiple compilations

For me, it turned out that when I uncommented the ProjectRoot variable 
in the host.def file, I left a trailing blank at the end of the path.   
This causes a space between the include path, and the trailing backslash 
that's added in the makefiles.    For us folk who are green to the 
purpose of the ProjectRoot variable, this can be difficult to catch.   
Would it be possible to put a comment above the ProjectRoot variable 
warning not to leave a trailing blank?                                   
                 

I've read in various places that the code is a work in progress so when 
it's checked out, not to expect it to build or work correctly.  This 
does seem to be the case, so I'd like to get a release of the code 
that's stable.  

How do I go about pulling a a specific version of the CVS tree that will 
compile cleanly and run ?   What version of the code fits this bill?

About my card, in the hope that this will show the owners of the radeon 
probing code other variations that are showing in the radeons, here's 
some output from XFree86.log, and the output from lspci.   Let me know 
if you need anything else.
