If I set the "radeon.agpmode" to "-1" I get low video performance and sometimes
the error message ( ring test *error* ),

If I remove the "radeon.agmode" setting I have no problem, the agp setting is
set automatically to 4x ( according to the dmesg output ), 

but as the bug occurs randomly ( 10% of the time ) I don't know if removing the
"radeon.agmode" setting can fix the problem

yes you are right, when I type glxinfo I can see that dri2 is not used when the
bug occurs
