Details

There is no /dev/dri/card0 with intel 945G, although i915 is loaded.
Earlier this year i had one, so this might be with newer kernels.
My current kernel is:
Name : kernel26
Version : 2.6.21.3-1

My system is x86_64, but this issue was confirmed by STiAT on IRC who runs arch32.
This task depends upon

These devicenodes are created by xorg. You need to have dri enabled and libgl-dri installed to get this working. Without it, /dev/dri will not appear AFAIK.

Hmm, what does the kernel say about DRI support when you load the i915 module? Do you have intel_agp loaded?

rmmod then modprobe i915:
Jun 1 19:52:40 tower ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:02.0[A] -> GSI 16 (level, low) -> IRQ 16
Jun 1 19:52:40 tower [drm] Initialized i915 1.6.0 20060119 on minor 0

Yes, intel_agp is loaded.

Seems that the problem was because the i810 kernel module was also loaded.
Since it was after i915 in rc.conf i didn't think it could be the problem.
Please close this task and add corresponding documentation.
