FWIW Michael of the Phoronix forum mentioned that the 8.39.4 release has
been pulled by ATI/AMD. Obviously the "Testing use only" thingy should
not have been in this release. So expect a new one soon. Regarding DRI,
it should work as it does in previous releases. I have not seen any
report that said otherwise. Here's what I have in xorg.conf:
Section "Module"
Load "extmod"
Load "dri"
Load "glx"
Load "GLcore"
Load "fbdevhw"
EndSection
I don't know if Composite still has to be disabled. Last time I messed
with xorg.conf I disabled it. It's easy enough to enable it with the
setting in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Section "Extensions"
Option "Composite" "Disabled"
EndSection
Section "Extensions"
Option "Composite" "Enabled"
EndSection
