I don't know what patches you are talking about, so I can not help you
there.

Anyway, 2.4.7 (including the DRI modules) is more than two years old. How

The DRI modules from the kernel always lag behind the DRI development a
bit. On a machine as new as a R40, you should use a recent kernel and
try the recent DRI modules from the DRI project.
