I've done some minor cleanup to Lars' nv EXA patch:
- Fix a bug that made EXA init crash when the DRM module wasn't available
- Hush the error messages a bit when DRM setup fails
- Don't bother trying to do AGP transfer setup when in XAA mode
You can get it at:

I've tested it on nv5 (the only applicable hardware I have), and it pretty
much works. XAA doesn't seem to have regressed, and plain EXA works fine
too. I did hit a bug in the glyph path when using xcompmgr, which I blamed
on double-unwrapping in the cw layer; cw has since been disabled when EXA is
enabled, but I haven't tried it since. Quite fixable at any rate.
I've heard of success stories with this patch on nv40 and nv30 class hardware.
I plan to merge this before RC1 if I don't hear of an XAA regression in the
next day or two. So, please test, and report your stories here.
Thanks.
