in case my other message got buried.

is there SiS DRM support in the 2.6.0 kernel ?

SiS DRM hasn't been ported to XFree 4.3 as far as I know, nor yet S3 or VIA DRM.

Which is not really a good reason for why the SiS DRM module is still missing in 2.6...

The SiS _DRI_ driver has not been ported to Mesa 4 and later (which is why it is disabled in XFree 4.3), but for users of XFree 4.2 and earlier, the _DRM_ module could be of good use. (And at least on Debian, one could install the xlibsmesa3 packages over a 4.3 installation to get DRI working as before.)
