Hei!

Not sure what you have been doing so far. I did the following to get DRI
working on my FreeBSD 4.8-STABLE system:

1) Get the latest RELENG_4 sources
2) Adding the following lines to my kernel config:
         
   device          agp
   device          radeondrm
           
   (You can find all kernel options or at least most of them in LINT).

3) make buildworld, make buildkernel, etc. as described in UPDATING
4) Adding the following lines to /etc/X11/XF86Config:
   
   Load "glx"
   Load "dri"
   
   Section "DRI"
   Mode 0666
   EndSection

5) dmesg reports:
   agp0: <Intel Generic host to PCI bridge> mem 0xd0000000-0xd7ffffff at
device 0.0 on pci0
   drm0: <ATI Radeon QW RV200 7500> port 0xc000-0xc0ff mem
0xe1000000-0xe100ffff,0xd8000000-0xdfffffff irq 10 at device 0.0 on pci1
   info: [drm] AGP at 0xd0000000 128MB
   info: [drm] Initialized radeon 1.8.0 20020828 on minor 0

Hope this helps.
