The easiest way is to use driconf. See
http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/DriConf. In standard mode it will only
change ~/.drirc. You can either copy that file to /etc/drirc to make it
effective system-wide or run driconf as root and go to expert mode. That
will allow you to change /etc/drirc directly.
