I haven't tried the ati driver (yet), but if dri works with ati but
not with radeonhd,
then radeonhd is to blame (and not dri/mesa)?  Also, I get this in dmesg:

Notice the line with the arrow, I actually have an M64-based card (X1450).
Maybe the two error messages are causing the -22 error?

The card id is 0x7186:0x1043:0x1231 (Asus A6JE)
Xorg.0.log doesn't say anything noticeably wrong about dri.

Rene
