I can confirm it works here too (G5 32-bit): [helium:~] andreast% dmesg |grep drm drm0: on vgapci0 info: [drm] Initialized radeon 1.31.0 20080613 info: [drm] Setting GART location based on new memory map info: [drm] Loading R300 Microcode info: [drm] Num pipes: 1 info: [drm] writeback test succeeded in 1 usecs and glxgears gives around 1250FPS vs. 52FPS w/o dri.
