[Long] Direct Rendering stopped on G400

Greetings

My son has installed Debian woody and we got Direct Rendering working
fine and all was "Cool and Dandy". GLX worked a treat.

He installed a bunch[technical term] of "unstable" packages
mainly Wine, Mesa, libc.

Direct rendering now doesn't work. He seems to think it was after a Mesa
upgrade. He has removed the new Mesa but with no change in behaviour.


Any pointers, ideas would be appreciated. His 3D-Animation work is
stalled at the moment.

Some info that may be of help:-
