Note that these instructions refer to bits and pieces from Xorg, Mesa
and DRM CVS HEAD. This is not 6.9 RC2.

The thing about Xorg 6.9 is that it's monolithic. This means, it should
include everything needed, including Mesa and DRM. I'm not sure what the
status of the DRM in Xorg 6.9 is WRT to R300 support, but I'd just give
it a try.
