Set your video mode to 1024x768 in 16 bit depth. Anything higher
will cause DRI to be disabled, because the driver does not
support higher resolutions being used with DRI.
Past XFree86 releases allowed this incompatible configuration,
and would crash randomly due to memory constraints.
XFree86-4.2.0 detects this problem combination and disables DRI.
