It depends on your motherboard and graphics card. Go to xfree86.org and
look in the Documentation section under "DRI" for complete instructions.

This message (dmesg | less) is telling me that it isn't possible
on one of my motherboards:

    Linux agpgart interface v0.99 (c) Jeff Hartmann
    agpgart: Maximum main memory to use for agp memory: 28M
    agpgart: Unsupported SiS chipset (device id: 5591), you might want to
    boot with agp=try_unsupported
    agpgart: no supported devices found.
    [drm:r128_init] *ERROR* Cannot initialize agpgart module.

On the other hand, a favorable dmesg output shows this:

    Linux agpgart interface v0.100 (c) Dave Jones
    agpgart: Detected AMD 761 chipset
    agpgart: Maximum main memory to use for agp memory: 203M
    agpgart: AGP aperture is 64M @ 0xf8000000
    [drm] Initialized r128 2.5.0 20030725 on minor 0

After starting X on that motherboard, the end of the output from
the command "grep -i dri /var/log/XFree86.0.log" shows this:

    (II) R128(0): [drm] created "r128" driver at busid "PCI:1:5:0"
    (II) R128(0): [dri] Visual configs initialized
    (II) R128(0): [DRI] installation complete
                  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
