DRI is provided and enabled for radeons <= 8500 by Free86 >= 4.3
and the kernel drm module which Is included in Mandrake 9.1
It the radeon series > 8500 for which there is No dri support Unless one
installs the fglrx driver from ATI
I have a radeon 32MB DDR and a radeon 64MB DDR and both have have worked
with DRI since Mandrake 7.2 and XFree-4.0.2
I also have a radeon 9600 Pro with DRI enabled and working by using the
fglrx driver.
