So, are you saying that increasing my vertical and horizontal refresh rates
will allow DRI to load?

I found something in a forum about enabling DRI that suggests going to ATI (
http://ati.amd.com/support/driver.html) and getting a driver for my video
card.  I've clicked "Linux x86" and "Mobility Radeon", but which driver do I
pick out of those?  All 'lspci' gives me is

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Rage Mobility P/M
AGP 2x (rev 64)

How can I find more detailed information about my card so that I know which
driver to download?
