Speaking of which, what do I do to get kernel drm going?  I see:
sbin/lsmod | grep radeon
radeon                152096  0 
drm                   133544  1 radeon

But in /var/log/Xorg.0.log:
(WW) RADEON(0): Enabling DRM support

        *** Direct rendering support is highly experimental for Radeon 9500
        *** and newer cards. The 3d mesa driver is not provided in this tree.
        *** A very experimental (and incomplete) version is available from Mesa CVS.
