This is the part you need to fix: OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
If you can get it to use the radeonhd driver, even over standard GLX, it'll be accelerated. DRM speeds things up a bit by allowing the application to render directly through the kerner rather than sending rendering through the X server.
