I'm wondering why KDE has to test for DRI again, as I told Xorg not to use DRI?
I mean I can understand, that you want to use OpenGL if it is available, but if
Xorg tells (can it?) that there is no DRI available, so KDE shoul just accept
it and not try to know it better...

Because, and there you are right, DRI will be there in most cases. And when it
is not there, then there will be a reason, that KDE won't fix, IMHO.

Anyway, as I don't use NetBSD on this machine anymore, it is not important for
me. Maybe for others...
