This comes from /var/log/Xorg.0.log:
(WW) RADEON(0): Direct rendering not yet supported on Radeon 9500 and
newer cards
(II) RADEON(0): Memory manager initialized to (0,0) (1920,8191)

(II) RADEON(0): Render acceleration unsupported on Radeon 9500/9700 and

What should I do to help?

You need a new driver, consisting of a newer xorg, DRM and Mesa.
Install a current driver, which supports your card first:
See http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/Building for building drivers from
current CVS.

OK, I followed the steps. When building Mesa, I had to change the instruction "make linux-dri-x86" to make "PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/lib/pkgconfig linux-dri-x86" to make it work. When following the advice "Make sure you have run at least make dep on your kernel tree or the build will fail." i got "*** Warning: make dep is unnecessary now." Then I tried with glxgears:
libGL warning: 3D driver returned no fbconfigs.
libGL error: InitDriver failed
libGL error: reverting to (slow) indirect rendering

What does that mean and what went wrong? I attach some files for reference.

Youll need 1.20 radeon drm.

OK, thanks, now it is:
[drm] Initialized drm 1.0.1 20051102
[drm] Initialized radeon 1.20.0 20050911 on minor 0:

And 3D-acceleration seems to work! But I get some warnings:
