You'll want the latest r500 stuff.  the latest stuff is in mesa git on
the r500-support branch:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/log/?h=r500-support

git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/mesa/mesa
git checkout -b r500-support origin/r500-support

here again, this is old.  You want drm master (no branch):
git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/mesa/drm
