siliconmotion SM910 : problem with Xorg and DRI extension


Hi !
I am currently trying to make my Silicon Motion SM910 (rev b5), says lspci, work with 3D acceleration.
It used to work fine a few months ago with a mdk 8 & a debian 3.0r2 using 2D, but I WANT 3D ! GNA! GNA! GNA!

* I'm using a debian 3.0r2.
* I added a testing entry to my /etc/apt/sources.list
* I installed xserver-xorg-video-siliconmotion using apt-get, because aptitude wanted for some obscur reason to uninstall my running kernel (without installing a new one when I let him do that, I must note!)
* I rebooted
* Nah ! Won't work !
* I found a tip on some random ubuntu forum, about a ATI card, so I'm not sur if it changed anything : I added :
Code:
Section "Extensions"
       Option "Composite" "Disable"
EndSection
to my /etc/X11/xorg.conf
and I added
Code:
fglrx
to my /etc/modules
* Now, I still get
blahblahblah
(EE)AIGLX: Screen 0 is not DRI capable
(EE) mouse errors & keyboard errors & blahblahblah
Fatal server error
blah I won't work blah

Where do I say my screen is DRI capable in xorg.conf ?
Thanx !
