Un-comment the DRI section.
Make sure you use up to date drm modules (namely via and drm), the ones 
included in upstream kernel are too old for your chipset. Refer to the 
DRM section at 
http://wiki.openchrome.org/tikiwiki/tiki-index.php?page=Compiling+the+source+code
You can see that the modules are properly loading in the output of dmesg.

Also, add Option "EnableAGPDMA" to your Device section, this might 
improve performances.

No problem :-) Do everyone a favor, though. Please stay on list and 
don't top post.
