Yes, it is possible to login with ssh, and for example I see this process

# ps ax | grep X
 3473 tty7     Ds+    0:00 /usr/X11R6/bin/X :0 -audit 0 -auth 
/var/lib/gdm/:0.Xauth -nolisten tcp vt7
 3555 pts/0    S<+    0:00 grep X

... seem that the X process is in uninterruptible sleep state ...
Any suggestion on other tests with ssh?

There is not any 'Load "/dri/"' line in my xorg.cong ...  How  can I 
disable  it?

I attach my xorg.conf , if could be useful

the output is:

# sudo grep -re \(EE\) /var/log/Xorg.0.log
    (WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown


this means no errors I suppose...

By the way, I have tried to follow the wiki: 
http://code.goto10.org/projects/puredyne/wiki/VideoConf

but the driver doesn't build...
