Radeon 7000 dri problem -- more info

[Alan]

I am having a problem getting my Radeon 7000 to work with dri enabled in
X.

I believe that the following errors are what are causing the breakage.
(From /var/log/Xorg.0.log)

drmOpenDevice: minor is 0
drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0
drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (Unknown error 999)
drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (Unknown error 999)
drmOpenDevice: Open failed
drmOpenDevice: minor is 0
drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0
drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (Unknown error 999)
drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (Unknown error 999)
drmOpenDevice: Open failed
[drm] failed to load kernel module "agpgart"
drmOpenDevice: minor is 0
drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0
drmOpenDevice: open result is 8, (OK)
drmGetBusid returned ''

X does not seem to recover well from this and goes off into never-never
land.

Here are the permissions on /dev/dri:

crw-rw-rw-  1 root root 226, 0 Jun  5 19:16 card0
crw-------  1 root root 226, 1 Feb 23 13:02 card1
crw-------  1 root root 226, 2 Feb 23 13:02 card2
crw-------  1 root root 226, 3 Feb 23 13:02 card3

Here is the info on the agpgart interface (from dmesg):

Linux agpgart interface v0.100 (c) Dave Jones
agpgart: Detected SiS 741 chipset
agpgart: Maximum main memory to use for agp memory: 203M
agpgart: AGP aperture is 64M @ 0xd0000000

Any ideas what is going wrong here?

This bug is in bugzilla at freedesktop.org at http://freedesktop.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=707 with more details.
