Hi Bobo,
To fix this just link in only the support that corresponds to your hardware. The design of dri is such that (one could paraphrase) each driver-specific part includes its own copy of what should be "driver-independent shared dri_core engine" (e.g. proc handling stuff).
Fixing this requires either a new filesystem type (drifs) or (simpler!) redesigning dri to separate common things into a separate dri_core thing shared amongst them.
Regards, Tigran
