I'm using G450 as well and followed the above link. I'm not sure mga_hal is a 
must if you want to run drm/dri. It doesn't load here either, and drm 
works... sorta. But I've got a few issues:

1) drm can only be initialized after a reboot. Any resetting af X after a 
reboot will make drm fail.

2) *sometimes* drm/dri/opengl doesn't look like it's working properly. Eg. 
sometimes the KDE-screensaver only occupies a *part* of the upper left corner 
(guess it's something like 640x480).

But I don't have any solutions.
