If you look at his Xorg log file, you'll notice that Direct Rendering is 
disabled.  Running a GL application with this debug flags isn't going to 
show anything interesting...  The problem seems to be that the Xorg log 
file doesn't actually say why Direct Rendering is disabled.

Also, it seems pretty clear to me that not all X*** cards (PCIe, 
specifically) are working properly, as my screen is pretty well 
corrupted when I enable DRI on my x800 XL :-)
