hi guys,
i tried to dig more into my problem (non-functional acceleration with xorg 6.9 and EXA render acceleration on ati x600.
the card seems to be recognized by the radeon kernel module. drm doesn't recognize it, as it seems, although both radeon and drm modules are loaded. AGP and AGP_AMD64 are compiled into the kernel since they are automatically included with IOMMU.
i found following post on LKML:

Now that Xorg 6.9/7.0 has been released, DRI is supported on more Radeon cards without ATI proprietary drivers. I got my X300 to work without problem. But, another Radeon X600 required to add its PCI ids to the Radeon driver. Patch is attached. I can't be sure about the "CHIP_RV350", I copied it from the X300 entry (from http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/ATIRadeon, X600 is a rv380 chip while X300 is a rv370). But, at least it works now.

when i check the output of lspci -v/-n i get the following on my box
lspci -v

i wanted to try to add the PCI ID of the card to the respective header file mentioned above, however i'm not sure which of these two... at the moment when the lspci -v/-n was executed i had radeon and drm modules loaded as i stated above.
i'm not particularly skilled in these things - do you thing that this will work? are there any other procedures necessary? which of the two numbers should i add to the drm_pciids.h?
thank you for any advice. regards,
