Finally I got it. I had the following in my /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 :

Section "Module"
        Load    "ddc"
        Load    "GLcore"
        Load    "dbe"
        Load    "extmod"
        Load    "dri"
        Load    "glx"
        Load    "pex5"
        Load    "record"
        Load    "xie"
        Load    "bitmap"
        Load    "freetype"
        Load    "speedo"
        Load    "type1"
        Load    "vbe"
        Load    "int10"
EndSection


However when I changed the order of 'dri' loading ( I made it as the first
module to be loaded), dri started working on my i810 :-)

Section "Module"
        Load    "dri"
        Load    "ddc"
<snipped>
EndSection
