Right, it's not the DRM driver, it's the AGP driver for ATI's integrated
(IGP) graphics chipsets.  If you want support for your X700, you
probably need to grab the drm from DRM CVS, along with
graphics/dri-devel and x11-server/xorg-server-snap.  I'm actually about
ready to merge that DRM to -current, but I want to do something a new
way for that merge.

I'd like to avoid going through p4 for merging.  The DRM is really
contrib code, and the local diffs from other committers that we
occasionally have in FreeBSD need to just get pushed upstream.  So the
differences between DRM CVS and DRM CVS integrated into FreeBSD are:
- replace #include "blah.h" with #include "dev/drm/blah.h".  I'm going
  to avoid this using sys/conf/files compile-with lines now.
- add $FreeBSD$ to all files after the copyright block, since our cvs
  checkin scripts demand it.
- Replace /* with /*- for copyright blocks

Could someone make up a script for those last 2 steps?  It would
probably make us get DRM into FreeBSD faster if I didn't have to
interact with 3 different repositories to do so every time.
