Fedora 10: Trouble installing libdrm (2.4.4) for latest Intel driver (2.6)

[Joe Smith]

I'm having trouble installing the new Intel driver at http://intellinuxgraphics.org/2008Q4.html.
This is xf86-video-intel 2.6.0 for an Intel GME965 chipset.
I'm running Fedora 10, 2.6.27.9-159.fc10.i686.

I think it all stems from an incomplete libdrm installation, due to a missing build directory:

In libdrm-2.4.4 directory:
# more README 

    By default, libdrm and the DRM header files will install into /usr/local/.
    If you want to install this DRM to replace your system copy, say:
        ./configure --prefix=/usr --exec-prefix=/
    Then,
        make install

    To build the device-specific kernel modules:
        cd linux-core/
        make
        cp *.ko /lib/modules/VERSION/kernel/drivers/char/drm/
           (where VERSION is your kernel version: uname -f)
    Or,
        cd bsd-core/
        make
        copy the kernel modules to the appropriate place


I did part one and everything completed normally.  Actually, I added make to the process because that's the usual order of operations.
    ./configure --prefix=/usr --exec-prefix=/
    make
    make install

However, I can't do part 2 because there is no directory called linux-core.  I did see a directory called shared core.  Here's the listing:

# ls
aclocal.m4    config.status  configure.ac  libdrm        libtool    Makefile.am  README
config.guess  config.sub     depcomp       libdrm.pc     ltmain.sh  Makefile.in  shared-core
config.log    configure      install-sh    libdrm.pc.in  Makefile   missing      tests

# cd shared-core/
# ls
drm.h       drm_sarea.h  mach64_drm.h  Makefile.am  mga_drm.h      r128_drm.h  radeon_drm.h  sis_drm.h     via_drm.h
drm_mode.h  i915_drm.h   Makefile      Makefile.in  nouveau_drm.h  r300_reg.h  savage_drm.h  via_3d_reg.h  xgi_drm.h

# make
make: Nothing to be done for `all'.

I rebooted anyway (who knows?) and don't see the new version:

# dmesg | grep drm
[drm] Initialized drm 1.1.0 20060810
[drm] Initialized i915 1.6.0 20080730 on minor 0

But I pushed ahead anyway, and tried installing the Intel driver:

In xf86-video-intel-2.6.0 directory:
# ./configure
......
checking for DRM... configure: error: Package requirements (libdrm >= 2.4..3) were not met:
Requested 'libdrm >= 2.4.3' but version of libdrm is 2.4.0

It looks like the new version is in the wrong spot...?

# find / | grep libdrm
/usr/lib/libdrm.so.2
/usr/lib/libdrm_intel.so.1.0.0
/usr/lib/libdrm_intel.so
/usr/lib/pkgconfig/libdrm.pc
/usr/lib/libdrm_intel.so.1
/usr/lib/libdrm.so
/usr/lib/libdrm.so.2.3.0
/usr/share/doc/libdrm-2.4.0
/usr/share/doc/libdrm-2.4.0/README
/lib/libdrm.so.2
/lib/libdrm_intel.so.1.0.0
/lib/libdrm_intel.so
/lib/libdrm.so.2.4.0
/lib/pkgconfig/libdrm.pc
/lib/libdrm_intel.so.1
/lib/libdrm_intel.la
/lib/libdrm.so
/lib/libdrm.la

Can any one point me in the right direction?  I don't think libdrm installed correctly, especially since I couldn't complete step 2.

Thanks for your help.
