I have an hp laptop with an ati chip, and I had to create the tmpfs
entry in /etc/fstab to make it work:
tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs default 0 0
This is because even if the card has 128Mb of dedicated memory, it is
seen as a 256Mb card and so I have to share another 128Mb from the main RAM.
I believe you're still using the linux kernel radeon driver (the vendor
string from glxinfo should be ATI).
AFAIK, with ati cards you should also be sure that you're loading and
using the correct agp module (the one you've got installed with your ati
driver).
Hope this helps.
