What is the output of the following commands after you changed to radeon?

$ lsmod | grep radeon $ lsof /dev/dri/card0

All right, but I am not sure if it supports dri with Radeon 9550. I read
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_DRI_with_ATi_Open-Source_Drivers and it seams it
(fully) supports only up to 9250.

The Gentoo is outdated then:

DESCRIPTION radeon is an Xorg driver for ATI RADEON based video cards. It
contains […] hardware 3D acceleration (experimental on R300 and R400 series
cards),

(From the radeon manpage.)

My Radeon 9600 has an RV350 chip.

root@main:~# lsof /dev/dri/card0

Hm, not good. The Xorg process should be using this. What’s the Xorg.0.log
contents using the radeon driver?
