I found a nice source package under the FreeBSD ports 'dri-6.2.20050719,1' that downloded the source for r300, Mesa3D and drm, it built and installed fine. I ran Xmoto as a test GL game and it was still slow 2 FPS mode, I did a glxinfo command and it said dri is not enabled. Any more suggestions to get this going? Thanks!
