Browsing my /var/log/XFree86.0.log I've found some interesting things:

Up to now I made no modifications to my system configuration to make DRI 
work so obviously glxinfo says:

Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
display: :0  screen: 0
direct rendering: No

Ok... browsing /var/log/XFree86.0.log I found:

[...]

Could these errors have something to do with missing DRI support?

        ProSavage DDR-K

"version 1.1.27t"..... the same thing I was thinking to install... it's 
already there!
So... why DRI isn't working?

I already have: Load    "GLcore", Load    "dri" and "Mode    0666" in my 
XF86Config file.

Thanks again.
Best regards.
