Hi,
I apologize if this issue already came up, but I really searched hard before posting here...
I have an ASUS EEE 901, running Slackware with a kernel 2.6.32

Does anybody managed to activate the dri in a similar hardware or do you know if it's possible? any suggestions or observations that could put me in the right direction are very welcome since I'm running out of ideas here...
Thanks in advance for your time,
