I have compiled the latest xf86-video-openchrome-0.904 driver on xorg-server-1.6.3.901-r2 and specified Load "dri" in xorg.conf. Xorg fails to load DRI when starting x. glxinfo reports "software rasterizer." Then following the Hp2133 wiki en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/HP_2133 I download and install the latest kernel drm driver and opengl driver from VIA and now DRI will load at X start, but KDE crashes on desktop load after greeter. If I add Option "dri" "Disable" to my xorg.conf, KDE works fine. Apparently DRM is not working with the via driver either.
Please include emerge --info x11-base/xorg-server x11-drivers/xf86-video-openchrome
