Since posting, I haven't heard anything, or been asked any questions, so I'm kind of sitting tight. I'd love to work through it. Ultimately I could just add to the worlds E-waste...but you know I'm kind of persistant.
Thanks,

I think I've run into this problem twice before. As I recall, it has something to do with the different DRM implementations (Kernel, X.org and ATi each seem to have one... :/ ). Looking at my own setup, disabling CONFIG_DRM in .config and installing X.org's libdrm lets things work in relative harmony. Sorry if you've tried that already, but I figure it doesn't hurt to share tips anyway.
Cheers,
Wyatt
PS: Tried to just PM this, but that's disabled. Apologies for the slight derail.

Hmm. At first glance that doesn't look like anything docs would help with. The drm seems to be coming up ok, then the xord driver comes up ok and sets up drm ok but then gets that error message :
drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0
drmOpenDevice: open result is 9, (OK)
drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0
drmOpenDevice: open result is 9, (OK)
drmGetBusid returned ''
(II) [drm] DRM interface version 1.0
(EE) [drm] Could not set DRM device bus ID.
(EE) RADEON(0): [dri] DRIScreenInit failed. Disabling DRI.

Rough guess is a month before we have time to start work on it, maybe another month after that. Just guessing though... I was hoping an editable file would have turned up by now.
AFAIK everything covered by the document is already working in the R200 drivers, so there doesn't seem to be much to debug other than the usual AGP problems which we can't help with in our documents anyways -- most of the fixes really need to be in chipset drivers. Do you have an R200-based system that isn't working ?
