Jeff Hartmann 4eafeec960 Add module version name at a lower layer of the code, allows things to be 
more flexible and allow older module versions to still work. Might not
    be final code if we move over to DRI kernel module version, but will be
    if we use XFree86 version. + Only build tdfx.o instead of tdfx-4_1_0.o
    since tdfx.o has never changed its API.

The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level
device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering
Infrastructure (DRI).

The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major
ways:

    1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via
       the use of an optimized two-tiered lock.

    2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics
       hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to
       restricted regions of memory.

    3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple
       queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context
       switch.

    4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules
       that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module.


Documentation on the DRI is available from:
