Compiles fine but I don't know whether it works because...

latest ati.2 drivers with XFree86 Version 4.2.99.1 caused only:

Not loading .rodata.str1.32
Not loading .rodata.str1.1
Not loading .rodata.cst4
Not loading .rodata.cst8
Symbol  from module /mnt/storage1/misiek/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/r128_drv.o is

(no symbol name, strange) and I wasn't able to test them with XFree86 4.2.0
because I don't have 4.2.0 sources at this moment.

Also for example in radeon_dri.c from latest gatos cvs there is:

      ret = drmRadeonClear(info->drmFD,
                             DRM_RADEON_BACK | DRM_RADEON_DEPTH,
                             color, depth, color_mask, depth_mask,
                             pSAREAPriv->boxes, pSAREAPriv->nbox);

but there is no definition of DRM_RADEON_BACK neither DRM_RADEON_DEPTH
in gatos (there is no definition in dri cvs, too). So question is
- where I can find latest/most complete dri cvs?

Anyway good news is that XFree86 4.2.99.1 from yesterday cvs (including kernel
DRM from 4.2.99.1) works fine - tried few programs that are using xv when drm
was loaded - no freezes. Quake3 works fine, too (well - almost fine, some weird,
problem is there - while playing little part of wall decoration was moving with
me instead staying on the wall, heh. Note that I didn't see this effect in 4.2.0).

There was other problem - some black dots on screen when using xv on 4.2.0
- now these are gone, too.

Great, now I'm waiting for 4.3.0 release :)
