Rawhide should have DRI enabled for all R300 and R400 series cards, with 
the caveat that PCIE cards are busted until hopefully the end of the day 
(need to backport some stuff from Mesa head).

Of course, that's just whether it's enabled, not whether it works.  But 
the M10 stands a pretty good chance.
