Take a look at /var/log/XFree86.0.log (maybe, substitute your screen number
instead of 0) and find what X servers thinks of your card. Chances are that
you have Mobility chip which is not based on Radeon core, but on Mach64
one.

If you have lines there: 

(--) PCI:*(1:0:0) ATI Mach64 LM rev 100, Mem @ 0xfd000000/24, 0xfecff000/12, I/O @ 0xe800/8
[snip]
(--) ATI(0): ATI 3D Rage Mobility graphics controller detected.
(--) ATI(0): Chip type 4C4D "LM", version 4, foundry TSMC, class 0, revision 0x01.
(--) ATI(0): AGP bus interface detected;  block I/O base is 0xE800.
(--) ATI(0): ATI Mach64 adapter detected.

then your are in bad luck and will not have DRI (at least not now).

PS
I'm using XFree86 4.1.0 on Sony Vaio PCG-F680K.

PPS
Please, dont take my words for granted. It's just an opinion formed after
spending alot of time trying to get DRI running. If you prove me wrong,
I'll be most grateful :)
