I have the same model, and yes, 3D acceleration should work ... Make
sure you have the latest X.org and kernels from debian, they should have
DRI working. I also have in my /etc/X11/xorg.conf

Section "DRI"
        Mode    0666
EndSection

And among others:

	Load	"dri"
	Load	"glx"

In my "Module" section

Also, you'll get better preformances if you add Option "AGPMode" "4" in
your "Device" section.

If it still doesn't work, send me your /var/log/Xorg.0.log and the
output of glxinfo
