I really don't know what the best solution is here... 1) Edit xorg.conf to add all modules minus dri and GLcore 2) Edit xorg.conf to set a different ModulePath, which would contain symlinks to all existing modules except dri and GLcore (hmmm, would break when installing a new module...) 3) Find a way to "blacklist" the dri and GLcore modules I don't have any more ideas for now... the 3rd is the one I'd prefer, but I don't think it's possible to do in a clean way.
