I have read about people installing the intrepid driver with various
levels of success. I have seen it in a few bug reports, but I don't
remember where. I think people get it from Reinhard Tartler's PPA:
https://launchpad.net/~siretart/+archive/ppa .

I think that adding
  Option "DRI" "true"
to the "Device" section in your xorg.conf should enable DRI. You can
check this by looking in Xorg.0.log if it is enabled or not. If this
does not work, you can build the driver without the patch (it's not as
hard as it sounds - ask if you want to try).
