In order to get applications like mplayer to work properly, I need to
compile an ATI Radeon 4200 driver from x.org. (Thanks to brynet for that
tip.) That used to work fine, but around mid-May it stopped compiling
(details below). The configure script output has this slight difference:
$ diff configure.ok configure.failure

< checking for LIBDRM_RADEON... no

checking for LIBDRM_RADEON... yes

I think you need to pass "--disable-kms" to ./configure
ciao,
david
This is what I use
sh ./configure --prefix=/usr/X11R6 \
--sysconfdir=/etc \
--mandir=/usr/X11R6/man \
--with-xorg-module-dir=/usr/X11R6/lib/modules \
--disable-kms
make
sudo make install
Works with 6.14.2....
