Continuing problems with Xorg 7.3

I'm still trying to sort out my problems since I changed my old
Gateway E-1400 from 6.3 to 7.0. Everything worked fine under 6.3. I
decided however that I would do a clean install and overwrite the old
partition. Everything installed and seemed to work fine, until I
tried to configure X. Regardless of the settings, I cannot seem to
get the image to lock. Xorg reads all the equipment correctly with
PCIscan. I also reads the H and V setting on my SyncMaster 910T
monitor correctly.
The graphics chip is the Intel 82810 dc-100. Before it used the i810
driver, though under 7.0 I also tried the "intel" and "vesa"
drivers. Still no luck. The only error I notice in Xorg.0.log is
the following:
drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0
drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such file or directory)
drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such file or directory)
drmOpenDevice: Open failed
[drm] failed to load kernel module "1810"
(EE) [drm] drmOpen failed.
There is no "dri" device in my /dev directory, but I don't know if
that matters. I've tried to comment out the "load dri" option, but
no luck, it tries to load it anyway. I also tried option NoDRI, but
that doesn't seem to work either. Anyone have any ideas, as I still
am unable to run X?
