Hi All,

Just emerged x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati-6.8.0-r1 (I was previously using 
x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati-6.6.3 and noticed this in my Xorg.0.log:
==========================================
(--) RADEON(0): Chipset: "ATI Radeon Mobility M6 LY (AGP)" (ChipID = 0x4c59)
(--) RADEON(0): Linear framebuffer at 0x0000000048000000
(II) RADEON(0): AGP card detected
(II) RADEON(0): Legacy BIOS detected
drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0
drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such device or address)
drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such device or address)
drmOpenDevice: Open failed
[drm] failed to load kernel module "radeon"
(EE) RADEON(0): [dri] RADEONDRIGetVersion failed to open the DRM
[dri] Disabling DRI.
==========================================

I looked in the log because my desktop font suddenly grew in size 
significantly (I am guessing that it grew from 12PS to 14-16PS).  Any idea if 
there's anything I can do other than reverting to previous package?
