Summary: No DRI for Radeon, w/cfg and X log

Initial Comment:
I have Redhat 7.1 installed (kernel 2.4.2-2), and 
couldn't get DRI to work with my Radeon.  I then 
installed XFree86 4.1 using the following RPMs from 
rpmfind (all i386 versions):
 Mesa-3.4.2-0.410.1
 XFree86-4.1.0-0.0.1
 XFree86-libs-4.1.0-0.0.1
 XFree86-tools-4.1.0-0.0.1
 XFree86-V4L-4.1.0-0.0.1
 XFree86-xf86cfg-4.1.0-0.0.1
 XFree86-xfs-4.1.0-0.0.1

I expected this to magically fix things, but it 
didn't.  Now, I'm not very knowledgeable...is there 
anything, after looking at my XF86Config-4, XF86Config 
(is this even used?  Redhat installed it with a nodri 
option which I've removed, but the log seems to be 
ignoring it coming from somewhere anyways), and 
included XFree86.0.log files that I should run, or 
change in the files? Note there is a radeon_drv.o 
in /lib/modules/.../char/drm/ (from memory), but I 
seem to have some sort of error for that anyways.

A side note...I looked in /usr/X11R6/lib (memory 
again, not running linux now) and saw broken links to 
libXIE.so and to libPEX5.so, though the ".a" files 
were there...what is going on?  I searched rpmfind and 
found those files in XFree86-libs-4.0.3-11mdk (and not 
in 4.1.0?  eh?) and did some rpm shuffling and got 
those files from there in the directory, but my log 
still has an error (I'm missing something obvious) for 
loading those modules.
I'm quite lost now, and keep in mind I'm a novice.
