I had read some material in the archives a while ago, and indeed the recipe outlined above makes those steps automatic :-) I would like to add a couple of remarks. 1) Under -CURRENT, DRI no longer works. The modules are not built at all. I seem to understand that DRI is incompatible with SMP stuff (some old syscalls are no longer present). 2) Under FreeBSD-4.3RC, sources as of April 12 (approximately) midnight, kldloading agp and then mga makes the kernel complain about the loading order (which is actually correct); subsequently launching KDE2 just causes the system to reboot. OTOH, if the modules are loaded **at boot time**, the kernel recognizes my card and everything appears to work correctly (at 16bpp, though).
